When most of their fans on social media, including the reds I know, plus the likes of Carragher, Sam Quek, Brian Reade and seemingly the entire red-supporting media (bar John Barnes who defended the decision) were coming out in unison to slate the decision - it was obvious they would be forced into a retraction at some point.

Their American owners clearly made the decision from a purely financial perspective, rather than a moral or ethical one. If they hadn’t reversed the decision, they would categorically have lost more money than they would have saved from the original decision.

So again, the decision to retract isn’t a sudden regaining of a sense of morality, it’s just another financial one....
 
Fair warning don’t listen to radio 5 as Ian Wright praises Liverpool and their actions and I actually mean praise .

The views of the panel here seems to be the government are the bad guys . Randomly chris Sutton could be the voice of Reason , I can’t believed I’ve typed that .
 

Probably because they are. I think the Office For National Statistics did a study a few years ago on this. Turns out that RS fans are four times as likely to be on a register than other teams. Can't argue with government stats.
