A Braintree-based Sunday League team are hoping to win the chance to play at Anfield. Crittalls FC are in the last four of a competition being run by Barclays, with the two teams who receive the most likes on Facebook winning the chance to play at Liverpool's famous stadium on May 24. Barclays gave clubs all over the country the chance to be in the running, but chose Crittalls for the final four. The club are managed by Andy Livermore, 55, who has been with the team for 28 years, but he was recently diagnosed with terminal cancer. The team was at risk of folding as Andy was unable to carry on, but the team themselves took over – and after surgery Andy is back on the sidelines. His daughter Jo said: "He has played football since he was a young boy. What more, he has dedicated most of his life to Crittalls FC being involved in the club for over 40 years and having managed it for a huge 28 years. "He treats the boys like his family and has given so many opportunities to so many. "He is a true inspiration to all. His dedication to, and love for, Crittalls, the boys and football is truly remarkable and we would love therefore to give the team and Andy the chance to go to Anfield." The vote closes on Tuesday night. All you have to do is like the picture of Crittalls on Facebook here.
