martel Posted 11 August, 2010 Share Posted 11 August, 2010 A very sad day, especially for his family, I believe he was only in his early sixties so it must be a massive shock for them, R.I.P. Marcus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fergie Posted 11 August, 2010 Share Posted 11 August, 2010 +1 ... absolutely. The Markus Liebherr Stadum. Someone start a sticky about this. I reckon a vote would be 100% on this Forum surely? For sure this has to happen. Someone who has links to Cortese should make him aware of this, start a poll and show the results to him...i am sure it would be 100% in favour of this. Great idea.

SNSUN Posted 11 August, 2010 Share Posted 11 August, 2010 This has come as a bolt out of the blue. Just yesterday I thought how unfortunate and sad it must be for Exeter City to lose a striker - to lose your chairman and source of funding is completely shocking. I have nothing bad to say about him - he came in, saved us, made us financially secure, and enjoyed seeing us win the JPT final. What a year. RIP Markus, may you always watch us from heaven with a glowing smile on your face and with your little camera taking pictures.

SanFranciscoSaint Posted 11 August, 2010 Share Posted 11 August, 2010 I am stunned and deeply saddened to hear of his passing. There would be no Southampton Football Club without Marcus, and for that he will always be remembered with great affection. Naming a stand after him would be only fitting, and would be a permanent reminder to future fans of the man who saved Saints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I can say is many thanks for saving Saints and I truly hope your time with us gave you as much happiness as it did us. May you rest in peace sir.

St Landrew Posted 11 August, 2010 Share Posted 11 August, 2010 Will be remembered as the man who saved Southampton Football Club. Without his intervention there would simply have been nothing left. As such he occupies a very special place. With his helping hand and might, Saints have regained their pride, if not their position, yet. That will undoubtedly follow, because anything Markus was involved in was successful. He saw something in Saints which pleased him immensely, and it's upto the club and supporters to live out the dream he had. His younger friend and compatriot, Nicola Cortese will be feeling very low, as we all are. I spare a thought for him and hope he has the appetite to continue the work, that Markus had so much faith in. Here's also hoping that, in the forthcoming seasons, Saints can provide him with the true memorial that befits his stature among Saints fans.

Lord Turnip Posted 11 August, 2010 Share Posted 11 August, 2010 Very sad to hear the news of the death of Marcus Liebherr and thanks to him from all Saints fans for saving the club from extinction. I will never forget seeing him at Wembley at the Johnstones Paint Trophy final with a big smile on his face taking pictures of the event. Condolences to his family and heartfelt gratitude for the short time he was involved with the Saints. A true Saint, RIP Herr Liebherr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
