The Scottish midfielder became a cult hero at Anfield in the early 2000s. Born on December 25, 1964 in Motherwell, Scotland, Gary McAllister had an impressive career spanning almost two decades. He played for clubs such as Motherwell, Leicester City, Leeds United and Coventry City before being brought to Liverpool by Gérard Houllier in 2000, aged 35, in a signing that would prove to be a golden opportunity for the club.

​

During his two seasons at Liverpool (2000–2002), McAllister made 87 appearances, scoring 9 goals and providing 11 assists. He was a key player in the famous "Treble" season of 2000–01, in which Liverpool won the FA Cup, League Cup and UEFA Cup. He also won the UEFA Super Cup that same year.

Jason McAteer is the local Birkenhead boy who lived the ultimate dream: going from being a devoted Liverpool supporter in the stands to becoming an energetic crowd favourite in the all-red kit. The road to Anfield wasn't an easy one, taking in both college football in the US and an impressive journey with Bolton, where he was a key player in their promotion to the Premier League.

When he finally signed for Liverpool in 1995, he brought with him a fierce energy and a desire to run that quickly made him a key player under Roy Evans. McAteer is remembered today as a player who always gave his all for the club with all his heart. His time at Liverpool was indeed marked by challenges with injuries towards the end, but to the fans he will forever be remembered as "one of our own" - a charismatic and dedicated fighter who is now ready to share his amazing stories with us at this year's Liverpool Festival.

Mr. Fairclough had a long and eventful career in the red shirt and was able to collect a whopping 19 trophies along the way. He played 153 games for the club and scored 55 goals. 68 of those games were started from the bench and compared to the number of goals scored, it is impressive and certainly qualifies for the nickname Supersub.

 

For all of us who followed the club in the 70s and early 80s, David will always have a high star. He was part of England's football flagship until 1983.

Here he played for Norwich City, Oldham Athletic and Tranmere Rovers before ending his career at Wigan Athletic in 1991.
