Reds mourn Norway victims

24th Jul 2011 - Latest News

Liverpool players yesterday wore black armbands during the friendly against Hull City as a mark of respect to those who lost their lives during the terrorist attacks in Norway on Friday.

Liverpool Football Club has always enjoyed incredible support in Scandinavia, and Norway in particular, and the thoughts of everyone at the club are with the people of Norway and the relatives of those who lost their lives or were injured.

Managing Director Ian Ayre said: "Everyone at the football club was shocked to hear the news and see the television pictures coming out of Norway.

"Some of our most passionate fans are Norwegian and we count them as friends as well as supporters.

"The team is due to play in Norway on August 1. Ahead of that, we want our fans to know we are thinking of them at this terrible time."
