Nice gesture indeed. Deserves praise as do the many thousands who chip into such a good cause.

Whatever you think of his management, that is just a fantastic gesture. He and his wife will leave having made a great impression on the city.

A touching gesture from a good man who I hope will always be welcomed back warmly, not only to the club but also the city.

 

 

THE ECHO can exclusively reveal that Rafa Benitez today donated £96,000 to the Hillsborough Family Support Group as he gets set to leave Merseyside.

 

The former Liverpool FC boss, who was today confirmed as the new manager at Inter Milan, handed over the cheque to Margaret Aspinall, chairwoman of the HFSG, as the rest of the committee watched on this afternoon.

 

In a low key visit to the group's office, Benitez wished the group well and told them he hoped they would get the justice and the truth they are campaigning for.

 

Mrs Aspinall said: "It was just nice to know that he wanted to see us before he went."
