Soccer:Two senior officials of New England Sports Ventures have been appointed as members of the Liverpool board and will be at Anfield tomorrow for the Reds' match against Blackburn.
David Ginsberg, one of NESV’s two vice-chairmen, and investor Michael Gordon have been appointed as club directors and will be at the match alongside new co-owner Tom Werner.
John W Henry, the principal owner of NESV, is unable to travel to the UK this weekend due to illness.
Henry said however: “Sunday promises to be a special day at Anfield in more ways than one. I’ll be watching the game from home and although I have only been here for a few days, I already miss Anfield.
“We are hard at work setting a course for the future including the search for a chief executive officer. I wish the club and the fans all the best for the match against Blackburn.”
Boston Red Sox chief operating officer Sam Kennedy will also be part of the NESV delegation at Anfield tomorrow.
