SAINTS' keeper Paul Harrison finally realised his dream of playing before a large Anfield crowd when he turned out in a Liverpool Legends XI in front of 25,000 spectators on Thursday night.
Paul, who lost his father Gary and uncle Stephen in the Hillsborough disaster, was once named as a substitute for Liverpool against Newcastle, but made it to the big stage by playing in the memorial match against an All-Stars XI to give a substantial helping hand to charity.
The proceeds are going towards a new radiotherapy centre at the nearby University Hospital, Aintree, as part of an appeal by Marina Dalglish, the wife of former Scotland and Liverpool striker Kenny.
There were more than a dozen Liverpool greats on show with league title medals to their names, including the likes of Ian Rush, Dalglish and Alan Hansen.
A regular event at Anfield, this year's game had greater significance as the game to mark the 20th anniversary of the Hillsborough disaster.
Harrison, 24, is a former Liverpool youth who spent time with Leeds United, Wolverhampton Wanderers and then Chester City, where he made four first-team appearances.
After a brief spells at Hereford United and Southport, he joined TNS as cover for Gerard Doherty and has since been virtually ever-present for the Saints, making 64 Welsh Premier appearances.
Liverpool won last night's game 3-1.
