Liverpool’s Famous Kop & Man City | The Anfield Wrap

To discuss all the above, Neil Atkinson is joined by John Gibbons and also Brian Reade to talk not just about the weekend’s clash, but also his new book ‘The Kop’ which explores how and why the Kop became the globally-renowned stand it is today.
Also on the show, Neil chats to Charles and Andrew Hendy of ‘The Mary Wallopers’ to talk about their James Skelly produced new album ‘Paddywhackery’.
