I speak on behalf of the Shankly family when I say that we are wholeheartedly behind The Spirit Of Shankly. - Karen Gill, March 2008

The first meeting in The Sandon demonstrated to us all there was an appetite for change at Liverpool. Change at the highest level of the
club definitely, but change amongst ourselves - a single banner to get
behind, a united voice with shared goals that won't just work to force
the owners out, but will be around for years to come to speak for
Liverpool supporters the world over.
The meeting that followed in The Olympia just reinforced that. Our aims
were unanimously backed and we started to actively seek a worldwide fee
paying membership.
This Union was organic. It wasn't in the works for weeks prior to The
Sandon. We've had a lot of committed and capable individuals putting
real stints in for the cause since that meeting and because our aims are
short, medium and long term we need to get our structure right in the
first place. We don't want to play fast and loose with your support and
your money. We - as a working committee - want to set up and
organisation which can stand the test of time. We currently have our
administrators, EDT, working hard on a constitution that allows us to do
that. Until then we won't be able to formalise membership with
membership cards or give people the opportunity to join online. We
apologise for this delay and will be in touch as soon as the situation
resolves itself.
In the meantime those who wish to join online when the facility becomes
available should email SOSOnlineApps@googlemail.com. We'll get in touch
as soon it does.
Until then we'll keep you all informed.
Thank you
Spirit Of Shankly
