How to play the Liverpool history timeline game

Each card is a moment in Liverpool's history: league titles, European nights, managerial handovers, famous signings and the tragedies that shaped the club. You place them by year, and a short line under each title fills in the detail. One moment begins on the timeline with its year showing. Pick a gap for each new card. Correct picks reveal the year; wrong ones still land in the true spot and cost one of three lives.

The deck covers the club from its earliest days to the present. The great European era of the boot room managers is dense with finals, and telling those apart is the hardest part. A long wait for a league title separates the old glory days from the modern ones. Opponents and host cities in the descriptions are your best clues, so read them before you commit.

Want a longer game? On the deck tree you can tick this deck alongside any other one measured in release years and dates, and they shuffle into a single timeline together.
