Watching an all-too rare home victory from a distance of three-and-a-half thousand miles was a welcome pleasure during my time in Manhattan. That the win was watched in the Liverpool Supporters Bar, located in the East Village (http://www.11thstbar.com/liverpool.php ), made it all the better.
Credit, too, to the owners, staff & regulars for helping out with the relief effort in the local neighborhood after Hurricane Sandy (the East Village was flooded) as well as raising funds for the Hillsborough Justice Campaign.
