Francis Oldham was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukaemia - a rare and aggressive form of cancer - when he was just 15-weeks-old
Thousands of people have signed up to become a stem cell donor after an extensive appeal to help a baby boy with blood cancer.
A banner was also held up in the Kop asking donors to "fight for Francis". A spokesperson for Anthony Nolan said 1,064 of the new signups have come from Liverpool and although they can't put every sign up down to Francis' appeal, they credit the spike in signups down to it. Anna said Francis started to come out in strange marks on his body at just six-weeks-old. She took him to their GP with a high temperature - and after initial thoughts were he was suffering from sepsis, tests confirmed he had acute myeloid leukaemia.
