'I've lived for LFC but you have to follow the advice' - Anfield stalwarts on supporting from home

On the face of it, December 7, 1974 is one of the more unremarkable days in Liverpool FC's history.

But Peter Millea remembers the meeting with Derby County at Anfield that Saturday afternoon as vividly as other people remember the moon landings or the fall of the Berlin Wall.

Why? Because it was the last Liverpool home game he failed to attend.

“You’ve got to remember, I was only 16!” says the 61-year-old from Garston, sounding genuinely remorseful for not making it along to a 2-2 draw in the bleak midwinter almost half a century ago.
