Markus Liebherr RIP. All tributes here please.

[Smirking_Saint]

Still speechless..........

 

Still in shock......

 

And actually feel so sad right now. He seemed like such a happy, friendly man.

 

Such a cliche but why IS it always the decent folk ?

 

RIP Markus, forever a saint

 

I'll pop down the stadium after work and lay some flowers i think.

[RobM]

RIP and Thank You for everything you have done, for giving us hope and giving our football club a future. We owe you everything.

[MongoNeil]

Shocked and stunned. RIP Markus.

[Ajv2809]

Absolutely shocked. RIP Markus, you will always be remembered as a true Saints legend. Thank you for saving our beloved club.

[Dimond Geezer]

Thankyou for saving our club in it's most desperate hour.

Thankyou for giving me the best season I can remember for many a year at Saints.

Thankyou for giving me the opportunity to take both my kids to see their team win a Wembley final.

 

I will always remember the look of joy on your face, and the sight of you taking your own photos at the JPT presentation.

 

With deepest condolences to your family.

 

RIP Marcus, and thankyou.

I am too stunned, saddened and numb in learning of the sudden death of Marcus Liebherr this evening. Marcus saved Southampton Football Club one year ago from total oblivion, it is something we all must never forget. We owe our very existence to this kindly, warm hearted and generous man.

 

RIP Marcus, we'll never forget you X

 

[icehagman]

Rest in peace, Markus.

 

Saints supporters will never forget how you saved our club. My condolences goes to the Liebherr family.

[Mase]

Thank you & goodbye Marcus. RIP

[RedWillie]

Just to say 'Thank you'

Dear Markus, before you came to our rescue Southampton had never heard of you. Now it shall never forget you. I shall always remember you smiling. May you rest in peace.

I haven't posted for months but felt compelled to after hearing the terrible news.

 

RIP Markus Sir you saved The Saints and will forever be in our hearts.

[OLDER BUT WISER]

I feel so sad at this time but I will be able to smile when I remember the joy that I saw on his face at Wembley, God bless you and all of your family.

[corky morris]

RIP Markus. Most of all you gave us hope, thank you so very much on behalf of myself & my boys.

[doggface]

This is really sad news.

 

Markus Liebherr saved our club and we will be forever greatful for that, I wish that he could have had more years at the club to see his ambitions become reality.

 

Don't think it has really sunk in yet, I hope the whole club can pull together again.

 

RIP

A few hours on, reading the many comments made by our family on here and The Echo sites has brought me close to tears.

 

Such happiness on his face in that photo Art posted and such happiness on his face at the end of the JPT.

 

It is just such a shock that he will not be here with us to watch us on our journey. He brought us salvation but also pride and happiness again after so long.

 

For that one brief moment in the history of our club we were together. Now it is our job to make sure we remember what he has given back into our lives.

 

What a wonderful thing you did Marcus, may we as Supporters, players and officers of the club be worthy of the legacy you have left us.

 

For his family and friends, how lucky you were to have known a truly remarkable man and again, my condolences at your loss

[trousers]

Just heard. Stunned and speechless. Am on holiday and just received several text messages from friends and family.

 

Rest in peace Mr Liebherr.

What a terrible shame at such a relatively young age. His legacy is the respect and regard that the supporters have for him. Maybe it is now time to give the stadium a new name in his memory. Condolences to his family, may he rest in peace.
