Against a background of the likely announcement any time now that UEFA will admit Gibraltar and we will be able to compete in qualifying for the 2012 European Championships (despite the outrageous objections of the Spanish Government, who have even threatened to pull all Spanish club and national teams out of European competitions if we get into UEFA), a team of Liverpool stars of yesteryear came to play a charity match against a Gibraltar XI.

There are many 'pool fans here in Gib, and the Victoria Stadium was a sellout. From my point of view it was good to see that even blokes who were a million times fitter than me in their youth are starting to look as out of shape as I am, lol ...
