LIVERPOOL FOOTBALL FANS

A Bit of Liverpool on 11th Street

Fans of the English soccer team Liverpool make the East Village their home base, meeting here every week at the 11th Street Bar to watch games. The club has used the bar, located near Avenue A, as a headquarters since 2003, and scores of fans show up for big games — even at 7 a.m. on a Sunday. Club members include both Americans and ex-pats from England, though at least once a week they’re all Village residents.
