      Not sure of the details, but I'd like to think that the ground should be more than half full with it being a Sunday. Should be a full stadium every year.

      Probably be the same as usual.

      Gates open round 1ish, service starts around half 2, Kop only with possibly the Kemlyn if the Kop gets chocker, tickets only like it has been for the last few years and everybody out by 4.

      Ticketed or not though is what we really are waiting to hear I suppose. I'll be there for my fourth year on the run, and like I said, I'd like to think it'll be a good turnout this year with being on a Sunday.

      Just ordered my tickets Cas so I'll be there with Paul.

      First time I've been and I know I'll be in bits before it even starts.  Was nearly in tears on the phone just ordering the tickets.

      I'll be there again this year, hope to see some familier faces in The Sandon beforehand.
      Feeling very emotional on the run up to this years service, just hope the boys can hold there nerve and win the semi-final on Saturday.

      Didn't make it back in time for the service at Anfield due to a couple of horrible crashes on the M6.

      Watched on the TV. 

      RIP 96.

      As I said, my fourth year on the run today, and while the service itself was excellent, I found it the hardest through the reading of the names. It's always hard to hear the seemingly never ending lost, but it hit me even harder today. To think of the 20th anniversary and all the papers (except one) getting behind us and now they've all left us to it. But justice will be done, as Margaret said.

      Fair play to Dirk Kuyt for his understated reading. Big respect for that.

      Poignantly, when the balloons were released as You'll Never Walk Alone was sang, one stuck under the Kop roof. I looked up at it, tears in my eyes, trying to sing along to YNWA, and wondered who it was whose spirit could not bear to leave Anfield today.

      Justice for the 96.

      You'll Never Walk Alone.

      A very emotional day being at the Memorial for the first time.  Unbelievable dignity shown by the families still waiting to find out Why?

      JFT 96 will come soon hopefully.

      Didn't make it up to Anfield yesterday for the service, first one I've missed in years.

      Watched in on LFCTV though and as always it was a very well respected, emotional and informative service. Whether you're there or not, you feel the emotion from the service. Nice to hear the applause for the Everton fans from the semi final as well, shows our class as well as theirs.

      Justice will prevail in the end.

      To each and every one of the 96 - You'll Never Walk Alone.

      Heard there was a few of the Everton dickheads mouthing off outside the Albert though, also heard they got nicked shortly after.
