Liverpool chiefs pay tribute to Ibrox disaster victims ahead of Rangers game

LIVERPOOL have paid tribute to the victims of the Ibrox disaster. 

The Reds are in Glasgow for their Champions League clash with Rangers tonight.

Ahead of matchday four of the competition, the Premier League outfit have laid a wreath outside Ibrox as a mark of respect to the 66 people who sadly died at the stadium in 1971.

It comes just one week after Rangers boss Giovanni van Bronckhorst and captain James Tavernier laid their own floral tribute at the Hillsborough memorial at Anfield.

Liverpool's chief executive Billy Hogan laid the tribute. 

Liverpool shared the images on Twitter, stating: “Our CEO, Billy Hogan, laid a wreath at the Ibrox Disaster Memorial this afternoon on behalf of all at Liverpool Football Club. Always remembered.”
