Post Match: Liverpool v Crystal Palace (EPL 25/5/25 4.00pm)

They could still go onto the pitch and celebrate after the lift.

I’m guessing not, as the only place that they could realistically use would be media platform in the main stand, and the stairs to that are all internal.

I suppose we all remember players going up to the royal box at the old Wembley, but stadiums just aren’t designed like that now.

Works in the new Wembley too.

I swear Wembley is still similar? Or am I misremembering our trophy lifts from the last few seasons?

Or people are remembering the 2020 title lift.

I couldn’t quite remember, but they definitely designed that into it. I’m just thinking to recent European finals which are usually in club stadiums, and the trophy lift is typically on the pitch - or at least a quickly assembled platform.

They did the FA Cup lift two weeks ago in the stands.

I may be mistaken. My eyes were full of tears from laughing my arse off…

Wembley has stairs up to a platform to lift remembering the recent league cup wins.

Anfield doesn’t have that set up, they did it on the Kop for the Covid lift but you’d have to move loads of fans and get that set up.

He’s in a mad rush to get everything done by the end of this week so he can take the whole of June off. It’s a move called the reverse parry - you take all the summer off rather than doing the main bit of your job…but because you’ve got everything done

Purslow did nothing for months and then said… sorry no more signings.
