A lucky group of LFC credit card holders and their families recently enjoyed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to visit the club's Academy for a special experience.

The 75 supporters were picked from current LFC credit card holders and invited to make a minimum spend to qualify to attend the unique occasion.

Once there, they participated in VIP coaching and were welcomed into a private meet and greet session with Reds legend John Aldridge.

Craig Edwards, one of the fans in attendance, said: "I really enjoyed it, as did all the other guys in my training session, and the gift bag at the end was a nice added touch. I think I may well have missed my true vocation in life!"

The club has had a long-standing relationship with MBNA since 1998, with 35,000 supporters holding the LFC credit card in the United Kingdom.

In addition to having the chance win unique experiences such as this one, card holders also have access to a wide range of rewards, including official merchandise, gift vouchers and discounts on museum and Anfield tours.
