JÜRGEN Klopp did his pre-Southampton press conference a day early today. He was inevitably asked about the form of Mo Salah. That’s what happens I suppose when your superstar forward hasn’t scored in eight games. It’s going to get attention. As ever,...
Jürgen Klopp made a tongue-in-cheek request that supporters go to bed at 10pm and don’t drink on Saturday night ahead of a 12pm kick off against Burnley on Sunday, but what can actually be done to replicate the Bournemouth and Watford atmospheres? Josh Sexton is...
Jürgen Klopp had positive injury news to deliver in his pre-Bournemouth press conference, with Trent Alexander-Arnold, Jordan Henderson and Gini Wijnaldum all back in training, though Dejan Lovren is expected to miss out once again. To react to that, Josh Sexton is...
Jürgen Klopp was in a reflective mood as he was quizzed about the circumstances around Liverpool’s draw with Leicester City while looking ahead to Monday’s visit to West Ham. To react to what was said in his press conference, Josh Sexton is joined by Fuad...
QUIET, isn’t it? Liverpool have gone to Dubai and we are hearing very little out of the camp. The players are off social media, it seems — as if they have been asked to hand their phones in at the start like one of those shit stag dos with loads of rules....
IT is fair to say that things are currently going well at Liverpool Football Club. Jürgen Klopp, his players and the fans are all on board the SS “Let’s win the Premier League and then find a shorter, sharper name for our metaphorical ship”, but it’s not...
MENTALITY is something that is often talked about in football but is a difficult thing to measure or pinpoint. There is no rating for each player on FIFA, no YouTube compilations like skills or goals. No points you can tally or score. There isn’t even an agreed...
Earlier this month, Josh Sexton and Craig Hannan flew over to Stuttgart to watch Liverpool under-18s participate in the Mercedes-Benz Junior Cup. While at the tournament they had the chance to speak to Bayern Munich fan Max-Jacob Ost about what Germany makes of Jürgen...
ANOTHER weekend, another Liverpool victory. Maybe that line doesn’t scan given the 1-0 win at Brighton and Hove Albion followed back-to-back defeats to Manchester City and Wolverhampton Wanderers in the FA Cup, but I stand by it. It was another of a certain kind of...
I READ an article yesterday which cited this week, the first full working week after the Christmas period, is the one we often find the most physically and emotionally draining of the whole new year. Often seeped in the guilt and lethargy of overindulgence and the...
The third episode of season one of The Pub Crawlers Podcast was recorded in Nottingham, as Rob Gutmann hosts Steve Graves and Martin Fitzgerald to discuss the local pub scene, Indian restaurants, students, and more…
The Pub Crawlers Podcast represents a quest to find the very best authentic UK pubs, filmed on location inside some of the finest boozers across the UK and Ireland.
Well, sort of. It’s equally about friends having three to four pint-fuelled, quintessential pub conversations, on any subjects that damn well occur to them, in a range of outstanding boozers across the land. So, really, it’s as much about what we get up to in pubs as the pubs themselves.
The shows are presented by self-styled boozer connoisseur and long-time pub designer and owner, Rob Gutmann, who is on a mission to find the very best pubs in the UK and to define the essence of the ‘true’ pub.
Featuring a wide range of guests (mainly Rob’s mates), we’ll be visiting pubs the length and breadth of the country, bedding into the very best of them, and chatting about our lives lived in and around boozers.
The first season of the Pub Crawlers focuses on the North of England, taking in Chester, Sheffield, Manchester, Liverpool, and even a brief foray to the north side of the Midlands in Nottingham.
Plug yourself in to the ongoing conversation as it disappears down all manner of tenuously pub-related worm holes, with your new mates at TPC. And you don’t need a pint to enjoy us, but it might help…
