ROY EVANS
Returning to Las Vegas for his second event with us is club icon Roy Evans.
Roy spent 34 years at Liverpool FC as player, coach & manager. He is a member of the legendary ‘boot room’ alongside Bill Shankly, Bob Paisley, Joe Fagan and Ronnie Moran. It was Shanks himself who, in 1973, convinced Roy to re-join the Club in a coaching capacity after a short stint playing for the Philadelphia Atoms in the NASL.
Roy was Liverpool coach during the Bill Shankly, Bob Paisley, Joe Fagan and Kenny Dalglish years. As such, he was an essential figure throughout the glory years of the 1970s and 80s, coaching & developing some of the greatest players and teams English football - indeed world football - has ever seen.
He was promoted to first team manager in 1994 and had the honour of managing the Club
from 1994-1998 winning the League Cup in 1995.
BRUCE GROBBELAAR
It is no exaggeration to say that Bruce Grobbelaar is one of the most iconic goalkeepers in Liverpool and English football history.
He began his career with The Vancouver Whitecaps in Canada in 1979, before joining Crewe Alexandra in England. It was while with Crewe that he was spotted by Liverpool head scout Tom Saunders and the rest is history.
With over 600 appearances for the Club under the tutelage of Bob Paisley, Joe Fagan & Kenny Dalglish, Bruce won an incredible 6 league titles, 4 FA Cups, 3 League Cups and a European Cup in 1984 where he famously distracted the Italian players with his ‘wobbly legs’ routine to win the game for the Reds in the penalty shoot-out.
Famous for his eccentric and flamboyant personality, Bruce remains hugely popular with the Anfield faithful and was voted number 17 in the Club’s ‘100 Players Who Shook The Kop’ poll.
PHIL THOMPSON
Joining us for the first time at a KopConnect event, is legendary Captain, Phil Thompson.
Scouse born & bred, Phil is another whose dream of playing for his boyhood club became a reality when he signed for the Club by Bill Shankly in 1971, aged 17.
It was the beginning of one of the most successful periods in the club’s history with Phil playing a major role as both a superb central defender and an inspirational Captain.
Phil’s Liverpool career saw him win an incredible seven league titles, an FA Cup, two League Cups, two UEFA Cups, a UEFA Super Cup and three European Cups. He famously lifted the European Cup as Captain in Paris in 1981.
After hanging up his boots, Phil remained at the club in a coaching capacity under Kenny Dalglish. The team continued to have great success with Phil as coach, winning the league title again in 1988 and 1990 and the FA Cup in 1989.
DAVID FAIRCLOUGH
Local lad David Fairclough lived his childhood dream coming up through the ranks and exploded into the first team as a teenager. A flurry of goals in his debut season helped clinch the 1976 League Title including a last-minute wonder goal to win the Merseyside Derby.
He would go on to spend eight glory-filled years at Liverpool. This glittering period for the club saw him win three League Titles, two European Cups, a UEFA Cup, a League Cup and a UEFA Super Cup.
David scored 55 goals in 154 appearances for Liverpool in all competitions, including one of the most iconic goals ever scored in the 1977 European Cup quarter final second leg against St Etienne.
A hugely popular figure amongst fans, David was voted in 18th place in the ‘100 Players Who Shook The Kop’ poll.
David also played in North America, having a spell playing for Toronto Blizzard in Canada in 1983.
MARC KENNY
Popular singer/songwriter Marc Kenny will once again be strutting his stuff in Vegas for 2020. Whether he is belting out Kop anthems to get the crowd going or singing his own songs its always a great night. The in-demand artist has established himself as one of the musical faces of LFC, performing not only for the club in various different gigs, but representing The Reds all over the world.
REDMEN TV
Paul “Maych” Machin and Chris Pajak are the creators of Redmen TV, the original Independent Liverpool Youtube channel. For the last ten years they have built up over 400,000 subscribers covering the Reds, home and away, from Paris to Turkey, documenting the lows of Hodgson, Hicks and Gillet to the highs of Jurgen Klopp and Number 6 in Madrid, as well as, ofcourse
NUMBER 19!
STACEY GUALANDI
Your host for the Legends Night is Emmy-winning journalist, radio host and television producer Stacey Gualandi. Stacey is a Las Vegas local and big Liverpool fan, and currently working as a voice actor and freelance journalist. She also is a
reporter/producer for several television outlets, including Entertainment Tonight,
EXTRA, and Inside Edition. She earned an Emmy as a General Assignment Reporter
for Channel 13 Action News in Las Vegas.
THE FAB
The immensely popular and award winning Beatles Tribute Band 'The Fab' have established themselves as the number one Beatles act in Las Vegas since 1995. They have performed at every major casino and resort in Vegas to sell out crowds. Their set list of Beatles classics - and the odd surprise or two - is specifically designed to capture the spirit of KOP VEGAS. Join us and the band live from the Westgate Hotel and Casino lobby bar as we party into the early hours to the sound of Liverpool’s most famous musical sons.
Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino
