Winning the league is a way for the players to say to their spectators " We will always do our best for you, like you always come to support us and some of you lose your lives doing so". I think that is the only way a club can show support to their fans. Yes it will not bring back the dead. But maybe it would give the families of the lost ones some (even though it is so small) comfort by showing, that like the fans are loyal to the club, the club is loyal to the fans and will always remember the lost ones. 4 years ago, 72 Egyptian Ahly fans were killed and I know for sure that was how the players felt. When they won the African Champions League the same year, they dedicated it to them and received the cup and medals wearing a shirt that had 72 on it. They know that they are nothing without their fan's love and support. And winning a title and dedicating it to them. When people go to visit their loved ones' graves, they would like to think that their loved ones can feel them or hear them. When they put flowers on their graves, they are well aware that they will not take those flowers, but it is a way to say that they love them and miss them. Such acts make loyal fans advocate. I don't like Liverpool neither do I hate them really. I am commenting on the act regardless of the name of the team. It is always good when the fans know that the players care about them too from time to time, and that it is not all about the money and fame. It is a respectful way to remember the dead fans by dedicating a trophy to them in my opinion.
