Karen Gill, the granddaughter of Bill Shankly, has been elected as Chairperson of the inaugural Liverpool Supporters' Committee.
The Committee will meet four times a season with senior Club staff to discuss the issues and ask the questions that most affect them and the fans they represent.
Karen told liverpoolfc.tv: "It's such an honour. It's something I'm so looking forward to because my granddad almost started that special relationship with the fans, so for me this is a chance to carry on that legacy.
"I feel such a sense of responsibility, but it's also something I enjoy. I really do enjoy meeting fans and talking about my granddad, so it will be a great honour.
"I definitely think my granddad will be looking down on me and wishing me luck - but I hope I don't need too much luck!"
