Liverpool FC has officially opened condolence books to honour Matt Beard.

Loss hits a football family in many ways.



Supporters feel it when a familiar face is suddenly gone.



Players and staff feel it when a leader who shaped their careers is no longer there.

A club like Liverpool understands that football is more than matches and trophies.

It is about people who give their hearts to the game and to the community.

When someone special leaves too soon, the club and its fans come together.

They create spaces to remember, to share memories, and to stand with loved ones.

These moments are hard, but they also show how strong the Liverpool family is.

Every gesture, from quiet reflection to written words, becomes a sign of love and respect.

Liverpool FC has now taken that step for Matt Beard.

The club announced that it “has opened physical books of condolence in memory of Matt Beard.”

This simple act gives supporters and the public a place to express their feelings and honour a man who gave so much to Liverpool FC Women.

Beard passed away suddenly at the age of 47 last weekend.

The club said, “The thoughts of everyone at the club remain with his family and friends at this devastating time.”

It is a moment of deep sadness, and the words reflect the support that the club wants to show his loved ones.

Matt Beard’s connection to Liverpool runs deep.

He enjoyed two successful spells as manager of the women’s team.

In his first period, he led the side to back-to-back Women’s Super League titles.

He returned in 2021 and guided Liverpool back to the top flight by winning promotion from the second tier.

Supporters now have two places to share their messages.

At Anfield, the book is located at the Anfield Road Stand reception and is open “10am-5pm from Wednesday September 24 to Sunday September 28.”

A second book is at St Helens Stadium in the South Stand reception.

It can be signed “ahead of the home matches against Sunderland (Wednesday September 24, 5pm-7pm) and Manchester United (Sunday September 28, 10am-12pm).”

These details matter because they let fans know how to join in.

The books of condolence are more than pages; they are symbols of gratitude and remembrance.

Through them, the Liverpool family stands together to celebrate Matt Beard’s life and his lasting impact on the club.
