Back on our perch and rising to the top in face of adversity again

WORDS fail you about the parade on Monday, how it ended.

- 

Until we find out what exactly has gone on, all we can do now is hope that everyone is okay and those who are ill at the moment pull through.

It could have been a hell of a lot worse. It could have been 100 people. It could have been one of the worst... but even one person is too many.

We just hope and pray for the people affected, their loved ones and families, that they're going to be okay.

We have to pay tribute to emergency services. Their response has been absolutely brilliant.

We always rise to the top when things happen in Liverpool. It highlights the best of what we are, and that showed again on Monday with the response from everyone.

I went to the Fiveways to watch the parade. There were more people at the Childwall Fiveways than there were at Manchester City's parade last year! The Fiveways was absolutely bonkers. It was great, the atmosphere was tremendous.

The reaction on the players' faces was a picture, when you see the first real hub when you come into town.

You could see the reaction on the players' faces, they were in disbelief.
