RIP. Very sad, was hoping he'd pull through. Sympathy to the family especially Rob. There'll be a moment silence and players wearing armbands for the Roar game right?

+1 for black armbands. Maybe a minutes silence on Sunday - its important to acknowledge losses from the Phoenix family, and to respect him, his life and his family.

Would be disturbed if the club did not arrange the minutes silence.

Know someone who knew Lloyd who says: he "is definitely one of the nicest/coolest people I've ever known".

Folks. We're going to try and whip up RIP Lloyd on the big banner.
If we do can we make sure it's out for a couple of minutes rather than sending it down like I <3 Nix's panties at the sight of Vinnie?

I think that the minutes silence and the banner are great ideas, but I don't agree with the black armbands in the zone. The banner and silence are short term things that happens at the beginning of the game, and can be incredibly moving when they are impeccibly observed. Later in the game when the there are drunk people falling around and plently of expletives coming from zone (which happns) it will seem......inappropriate if the people doing this are wearing black armbands.
All I do is make the stuff I would've liked

Farewell Lloyd, your contributions to football, Wellington and New Zealand will not be forgotten.
You will live on in the memory of the club and its supporters.
Here's hoping the players can put in a dominating 90 minute performance in honor of the fallen.
Condolences to all the friends and family.

Campbell Gower We are all so sorry about this. We've lost a bloke with great vision, leadership, determination and passion for Wellington (and his new love the Phoenix!). When asking me to get others involved I asked the criteria, Lloyd typically said: "well, we don't want any w**kers" ! Irreverent but focused, creative & compelling, as always. An undeserved end for a good bugger. We'll miss you Lloyd. You'll leave a good legacy, and you made a difference. RIP2 hours ago �

From Ricki's live chat: "The Phoenix would not be here without Lloyd. He was the instigator of the new ownership group."
I had no idea he was the one who effectively got the ball rolling on the Phoenix rescue! Even more gutted for his loss.
Must have a banner.

A statement from Wellington Phoenix Football Club said Morrison played a major role in bringing together members of the consortium.
"It didn't matter what Lloyd did, he always gave of his best", said his brother Rob Morrison, who is also a consortium member.
"Once he got involved in the Phoenix he became very passionate about the club." That passion was epitomised by the Phoenix shirt hanging on the wall in his Seattle hospital room.
