Enough is Enough, Boots on!
Stars from across the spectrum of Merseyside sport held a charity football match that aimed to support the local community in tackling gun and knife crime. Liverpool-based initiatives Weapons Down Gloves Up and No More Knives joined forces for the successful event: 'Enough is Enough, Boots On' 2023. Nationwide legends united to support the two campaigns through the power of sport. UFC star Paddy Pimblett and retired boxer Tony Bellew led one side, with retired footballer Robbie Fowler and professional boxer Natasha Jonas on the other.
Notably, Ex-Liverpool legend Stephen Warnock played the full 90 minutes, contributing to the tremendous success of the event.
It was hosted at Marine FC, where 2,000 spectators watched in excitement.
Both squads were stacked with household names such as, Leighton Baines, Jamie Webster, Frazer Clarke, Peter McGrail, Peter Reid, James Vaughan, Neil Mellor, Neil Ruddock, Darren Farley, and many, many more. The game took place on Sunday, July 2, and kicked off at 1.30pm.
Stephen said: "I'm deeply committed to initiatives like 'Enough is Enough, Boots On' because they address crucial issues affecting our community. Supporting local efforts to combat gun and knife crime through the power of sport is a cause close to my heart. It's an honour to be a part of this event, and I believe that together, we can make a real difference in Merseyside."
