Liverpool Football Club is deeply saddened by the passing of Gerry Marsden.
A Scouser and lifelong Liverpool fan, Marsden was the lead singer of*1960s Merseybeat band Gerry and the Pacemakers, whose rendition of You'll Never Walk Alone was adopted by the Kop in 1963.
The group's third number one single - a cover of Rodgers and Hammerstein's classic - became famous throughout the world as Liverpool FC's anthem and is played moments before kick-off of every home game at Anfield.
Sung in times of both celebration and commiseration, Gerry's interpretation of*You'll Never Walk Alone will forever be inextricably linked to the club he loved.
RIP Gerry Marsden, 1942-2021
