Liverpool owner John W. Henry issued an apology to the club’s fans following the Super League debacle on Wednesday.
On Tuesday night, Liverpool were one of six Premier League clubs that have pulled out of the proposed Super League after a huge backlash from the respective club fans.
“I want to apologise to all the fans and supporters of Liverpool Football Club for the disruption I caused over the past 48 hours,” said Henry.
“It goes without saying but should be said that the project put forward was never going to stand without the support of the fans. No-one ever thought differently in England. Over these 48 hours you were very clear that it would not stand. We heard you. I heard you.
“And I want to apologise to Jürgen (Klopp), to Billy (Hogan), to the players and to everyone who works so hard at LFC to make our fans proud. They have absolutely no responsibility for this disruption.
“They were the most disrupted and unfairly so. This is what hurts most. They love your club and work to make you proud every single day.”
