Swans To Kop Liverpool Support

Home > Story Index >Swansea To Kop Support From Elsewhere

Lifelong Liverpool fan, Gary Eves and his friends will be leaving the River Mersey behind early Saturday morning and will be meeting people from the JackArmy.net Message Board for a later breakfast before the match. They will sample the atmosphere in the Vetch as they warm their singing voices for Sunday's sell out against Manchester United at the Millennium Stadium.
This is not the first time that Gary and his friends have sampled Swansea on a cup final weekend, having made a similar trip two years ago for both the Worthington and the FA Cup Finals. Gary also believes that they will not be alone "Word has got around back home what a great place Swansea is to stay and I have heard that another 4 or 5 groups of lads are coming your way to spend the weekend similar to us, so all told I say about 40 or 50 lads that I know of should be pissing it up in Swansea over the weekend and a few of them have mentioned going to watch the swans Saturday, so we will join in the Singing"
Gary has been a Liverpool fan for over 25 years, holding a season ticket for most of that period. He remembers Liverpool's cup treble of two years ago with fondness especially as it gave him the chance to take his son to his first European final although Gary has seen Liverpool play in some of their other successful final outings on the continent.
And for the weekend they are also putting local differences aside as two Everton fans travel with them to Swansea although neither will be attending the Final on Sunday.
So if you see Gary and his mates on the North Bank on Saturday then say hello and refrain from a reference to "calm down calm down" I'm sure they have heard that somewhere before. And maybe just return the favour and give Liverpool a bit of a shout on Sunday.
Also at the Vetch this weekend to add to the atmosphere will be over 70 fans who will be making the trip from both Belgium and Holland.
