Liverpool reversed their decision to furlough staff onto the Government’s job retention scheme yesterday following the huge backlash from fans after they announced their intention to do so on Saturday.
Norwich City, Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur first made the decision, and many were shocked to see Liverpool follow suit.
However, the club’s owner John Henry and chief executive Peter Moore agreed they came to the wrong conclusion to make the initial announcement and some of the staff who were initially furloughed will now return to their positions.
Nevertheless, some believe Liverpool owners failed the club’s traditions and fans, and that changing their minds doesn’t even change that.
