LIVERPOOL will come to a standstill to mark the 20th anniversary of the Hillsborough disaster as bells peal 96 times across the city.
Chimes from both cathedrals and the city’s civic buildings could sound together for the first time since the end of World War II.
Liverpool cathedral’s Great George and the others, sounding in unison, will be heard for miles around.
At 3.06pm, on the afternoon of Wednesday, April 15, people will be asked to observe a two- minute silence. Liverpool FC is urging Europe’s football governing body, UEFA, to spare them a potential fixture clash with the 20th anniversary of the disaster of Hillsborough memorial.
If Liverpool progress beyond their two-legged Champions League tie against Real Madrid, they have asked to be excused from playing on the day.
