Rush to tns?!

Liverpool Football Club - General Discussion

Postby A.B. » Sat Jun 25, 2005 3:53 pm

From LFC.tv

Total Network Solutions are aiming to try and pull off one of the biggest shocks of all time when they face Liverpool in the Champions League and to help them out they are trying to tempt an Anfield legend to put his scoring boots on once again.
Liverpool legend Ian Rush might be at the age of 43 but as he showed in the Tsunami charity match at Anfield last season he has lost none of his eye for goal and looked really sharp.

TNS managing director Mike Harris is a close friend of Rush and he is hoping to lure him out of retirement for this match.

Harris said: "Ian's a big friend of mine. He opened our 500-seater stand four years ago and helped coach our strikers before we played Manchester City in the UEFA Cup two years ago.

"I'm sure we'll be talking soon and when we do I'll ask him to put his boots back on. The sight of Ian Rush on the bench against his former club would give the side a massive lift."

Meanwhile, speaking before the invitation from Harris to put on his boots once again, Rush welcomed the draw and said it will be a great occasion.

Rush said: "I've helped TNS out by training their strikers and I was a non-executive director at the club for a spell.

"It's a great draw for a club of their size and I wish them well. If you're going to play Liverpool then this is the time to do it. But I don't anticipate too many problems for Liverpool."

Although, you have to admit, it would be nice to see Rush back for one last at Anfield. Even if he is there for TNS.

I saw that earlier. Its a publicity stunt. Rush is in his 40s and looked completely knackered when he last played for us - 10 years ago!!!!!

would love to see rush play against us at anfield, of course it's not like TNS actually have a chance of winning.  I mean that in the most respectful way possible.  I mean if you lose a 12-0 agregate to the Polish Champions you can't really expect to beat the champions of europe over 2 legs...

Rush apparently still plays a lot, he has two games coming up in Nigeria whatever all that's about...he plays in the Mastsers every year too....I am not saying I would fear him now but he'd be fit enough to play and wouldn't you just LOVE to see him swap shirts with someone at the end and be stood there in front of the Kop in our shirt!!!! That would be sweet!
