      Arsenal FA Cup Game - Truth Day Number 1
      Dec 29, 2006 04:11:33 pm
      The RTK campaign have designated this as Truth Day number 1.  15,000 flyers will be handed out before the game to fans (some of whom may not be aware of the campaign which has begun on numerous reds forums)

      A copy of the banner is attached.

      A flame is worth more than words, especially one that never goes out. Its there so we never forget, any half intelligent human being knows that.
      But obviously Kelvin Mackenzie has forgotton or doesnt know that. I would argue that to call this man a human being would be and insult to human beings, and to call him an animal is an insult to animals. This man is a facist racist peice of trash with a mediorce mind who thoughtlessly submits to prejudice and sterotypes without taking point and taking time to think about comments which would hurt others and insense the pride and memory of those who lost their lives. This mans non sensical ramblings have been hoarded through a reading media for too long to count. He has to have his say albeit from his own pumped up opion of himself, he does nothing to justify his arguements and produces no evidence to provide fact for any arguements. This goes the same for this periodical that so many of this country buy. I cant even bring myself to say this gutter press publications name, it just insenses me when I do. Saddam should have had a hanging partner when he was executed, in fact more that one hanging partner. But it would have been poetic justic if the first one in line at those gallows would have been Mackenzie.

      JUSTICE FOR THE 96

      I cant make the game on Saturday but will be singing as loud as I can for the 96 all day while Im at work. I would urge every Liverpool fan all over the world to sing that day not just those at the match, sing and be proud and remember the 96, and sing and be loud with your disgust at Kelvin Mackenzie.

      Ya, Henry played against Charlton and looked very fresh after his injury. Just hope Jamie and Sami/Dan can sniff him and Van Persie out on Saturday.

      Official backing from the club but.... (From LFC.tv)

      Liverpool Football Club has given its backing to a planned 'Protest for Justice' prior to Saturday's FA Cup tie with Arsenal, but warned supporters that there are guidelines which must be adhered to.

      On what has been declared another official Anfield Flagday, the club has agreed for a mosaic displaying the word 'TRUTH' to be held up on the Kop prior to kick-off.
       
      There's bound to be a special atmosphere for the eagerly anticipated tie of the round and fans are being invited to make it an even more colourful occasion by bringing along their flags and banners.
       
      Stadium Manager Ged Poynton hopes everyone attending the game will have an enjoyable time but is keen to stress that for everything to run smoothly certain regulations have to be respected.
       
      He says: "In keeping with our previous policy of allowing flags and mosaics to be displayed inside Anfield, Liverpool Football Club have once again agreed for cards bearing the word 'TRUTH' to be held up on the Kop ahead of Saturday's FA Cup tie against Arsenal.
       
      "We invite fans to bring their flags and make their point but must stress that, under the terms of the Ground Regulations and General Safety Certificate, the holding up of flags and cards after kick-off is strictly prohibited.
       
      "Keep the spirit of LFC going by displaying your cards and banners between the playing of 'You'll Never Walk Alone' and kick-off, but once the game is underway please put them down so everyone can enjoy the match.
       
      "As one of the few clubs who allow official Flagdays and mosaics we trust you will respect the club's goodwill and adhere to these guidelines."



      The Kop mosaic in question will be Red letters on a white background saying 'The Truth'.  It is anticipated that the mosaic will be held up for the first 6 minutes of the game. 

      A 15ft banner at the front of the campaign will declare '6 minutes for the 96'. 



      This will also be held aloft for the first 6 minutes of the match. 

      If you are in the Kop for the Arsenal clash tomorrow - take your responsibilities to your club, your fellow reds and to the families of the 96 seriously and for 6 minutes of your life hold up your mosaic and sing your heart out for the reds. 

      Then you can watch us batter Arsenal.

      Very impressed with the Justice chants and everything lads.  Great stuff done us all proud.

      Bugger - Arsenal have just scored.  Good goal.  No complaints for that one. Come on reds.



      I love Kuyt.  Come on Liverpool.  Let's get that 2nd - we've done well second half.

      Well, I feel sick to death to be honest. The chances and the possesion we had - we really should of put Arsenal in the grave before half time. But we rued our missed chances and Rosicky slammed in two good goals. First goal all's I could do was think - what a great goal. But come on Reds lets get back into it. But again, more than 5 minutes later Rosicky hit another shot outside the box. And what the fu*k was Dudek doing? Infact never mind what was Dudek doing. What the fu*k was the outfield players doing? There were 8 players. Yes 8. And Gerrard really should of got himself in the way to block the shot. But anyway, I thought to myself. We have been in more worse situations than this. Just like Istanbul - I had belief. Belief in the team to lift themselfs into AT LEAST earning a replay. Second half starts... come on reds I thought, we were muscling Arsenal out of every tackle, pass, cross. But the end product never really came. But as play went on I thought Bellamy should have come on. It wasn't to be, Aurelio came on. To be honest I don't know what Rafa see's in Fabio. He's decent. But it never really changed anything. It was becoming scrappy and we couldn't seem to get the ball into a postion to attack Arsenal. It was like Deja vu. From the first half. But we got a corner. Yes come on boys here's a chance. Great cross from Pennant, and I mean great cross. Crouch seemed to head it into the wrong postion but Kuyt was there. Thank you Dirk. NOW F'UC'KING COME ON. We seemed to go from strength to strength after the goal. But again - my argument about Aurelio still stood. He clearly should have equalized for us. Seemed like he should of nestled that into the back of the net. But he didn't... tw*t. I got to thinking if Rafa isn't going to play Bellers because he's not 100%. Why even put him on the bench? We had Fowler as a 'fantastic' option. That was baffling. Garcia was absolutely atrocious today. One of the poorest performances he has ever had. He is a love hate player. And tonight I thought he should of come off for Gonzo. Not bloody Aurelio on for Riise. But when everything seemed like it was going well. And that we could of pushed on to get that vital goal. Henry got the better of Carra and he hit an almost. Weak shot. It went in. sh*t, it's all over. Its like the Benfica game all over again.
      Tonight Dudek started which I was optimistic at the start about Rafa's decision but I thought he hardly put any effort in today. If you just watch the second and third goal scored by the Gunners it is clearly seen as did he have any determination to save the shots at all?
      Christ. We are out of the FA Cup. The holders - out. It hasn't sunk in yet. But all's I am focussing on is the Champions League now.
      Tonight we missed pace upfront. Bellers should of come on. And we miss Sissoko. Everytime we attacked we had no one back that can break down the play. We miss that in Sissoko. And if there is anyone that should be dropped onto the bench when Momo comes back it should be Alonso. Just for a while - see how it goes...
      But anyway if all these rumors about Henry coming to Liverpool I hope they are true. He's the complete player. And he did show the difference in that Arsenal side tonight.
      On a more positive note. RTK. Yes I think we've Reclaimed the Kop now. The Fans we're brilliant. Any of you Reds that went tonight and sung your hearts out I give you a round of applause.
      But anyway, lets see if we can get any revenge on these pricks in 3 days time.

      Liverpool were pathetic tonight, im fed up with us only ever showing any urgency in our game when we go 2 goals down and the games slipping away, why the F**k don't we play with urgency from the start? why did benitez do a straight swap with aurelio and riise? whats that meant to achieve it's not changing the tactics is it, crouch should of been off for bellers at half time when it was clear we needed some pace to get past the arsenal defence. what the F**k was dudek doing for the 2nd and 3rd goals, the defence didnt help him out but the 2nd he should have been on his line there was no cross coming in was there he looked like he didnt care. and if bellers was not played because he wasnt 100% why was he on the bench? we could have had fowler on the bench instead. We had all the possesion in the 2nd half and we didn't use it, why the F**k don't we ever win against the big sides, im F***ing pissed off with it, this team need to buck their ideas up.

      on a lighter note, the fans were brilliant tonight, the campaign was brilliant, lets keep this going for the rest of the season.

      Good effort from the crowd tonite barring those three sat in front of me.

      I sit in the lower cent., and have done for the past 18 years (so you kinda get to know the people around you), in front of me tonite were obviously a family of three at there first game. (how do these get tickets??) They never once stood up for the Justice chants / songs, never joined in any singing / encouragement and the lad (mid / late teens) all he wanted to do was take photo's at every opportunity and if the action came close, kept waving in case the camera was on him.
      I know some of you my be critical of my comment, but I for one know all about what happened at Hillsborough, and I am lucky to here today, so I was highly charged for this match today.
      Why go to this match, if your not going to make an effort in joining in with the protest ? - I find them an insult to all involved at LFC. These people are probably part of what Roy Keane raged at ther other year - prawn sarnies brigade.

      Rant over, all those of you in the Kop tonite - thanks you me proud, those 6 minutes will stay with me for ever and the cheer afterwards sent a chill through my body.

      Your right smiggs, but like I said I was highly charged and would still be ranting now. (or prob. be in a cell and banned)
      They hadn't a clue what was going on in the match, let alone the protest.

      Forgot to mention, a big well done to the crowd in applauding Henry off when he was sub'd. - This is what makes Liverpool special. (barring the 3 in front of me obviously)

      We were n't as clinical as Arsenal, simple as!

      Kuyt was sensational again, Pennant can't beat a man, Riise kept being caught out of position.
      Better performance in the second half but did n't create enough.

      Sorry boys we need to add this month big style.
