Are we cursed as a club?

It was hiked up x3 - plus John Holding as the gates got bigger - he did not provide changing rooms at the pit - the teams used his nearby pub to change he was doing roaring business on beer sales on match days - Our fans & players built that ground as it was an old athletics track Anfield - he just owned the land & run the club with a board - The Board were no fools Dr Baxter on it broke away in an EGM after getting a price for land over the other side of the park a market garden named Mere - he gave the club an interest free loan & built then what was a state of the art stadium - the vote went through - Holding thought it was a big bluff at a meeting in a Library a few times Dr Baxter inspired share holders to get involved -

Holding a brewery chief & high standing in the city tried to pinch our name he took a lot of players off us - the FA told him Dr Baxter & used our name in building the new ground to be named Goodison Park -

so he had to rename his team = Liverpool FC - it was then in the area of Anfield ....

In the mid 1950s Everton Division one - Liverpool Division 2 most fans watched both games - My late father had a uncle who was a red so he did his & the state of Anfield's ground back then was awful - hence the blues fans named it THE PIT - hence the name stuck.....1964 a certain Bill Shankly got them promoted & they have been a thorn in our sides for most seasons ....

Joseph, have been using AI or something to lay out a post for you.

Seen enough of your posts to know this hasn't come from your fingers on the keyboard..
