In the latest edition of ‘The Shoot Treatment’, Martin Fitzgerald takes a classic player profile from Shoot Magazine and poses the questions to a guest. In the latest instalment, Martin speaks to BBC Sport’s Senior women’s football news...
This week John Gibbons went to Kevin Keegan’s house for a cup of tea and a chat about his new autobiography My Life in Football. Although obviously covering his whole career, we focused on his time at Liverpool. where Kevin won three league titles, two UEFA Cups...
LAST weekend, just days after the high of the derby, Liverpool sold our best player and, not unnaturally, people are concerned about how we replace him — be it in the next few weeks or in the summer. There’s always a sadness when moments like this come. When...
DOMINIC CLIFF JAMES Milner netted his seventh consecutive penalty of the season against Manchester City on Sunday. Despite his perfect record, Sky Sports cameras picked up Jürgen Klopp with his back turned to the field of play as the spot kick was being taken. Klopp...
I DON’T like it when players leave. I don’t mean any specific player either. I mean just any player. It saddens me that something hasn’t worked out and whoever it is lacked what we need to win things. Well, okay that may not be completely honest – I did breathe a sigh...
IT’S funny how sometimes you can be thinking about someone and they pop up in different places. Like when someone recommends a band to you, and suddenly you see their name wherever you look. I’ve been thinking about Kevin Keegan a lot recently, and then he was...
IT does rather feel like it’s just the FA Cup left for Liverpool now, making tonight’s quarter final replay a massive game for the club. Many will argue that we shouldn’t be needing to play a replay at all. Surely we should be beating Blackburn (and...
IT’S Kevin Keegan’s birthday today. He’s 64. A quick question for you: What’s the first thing that comes into your head when you hear the name, Kevin Keegan? I’m guessing that, for some, the first image springing to mind is of a rain-lashed England...

The Pub Crawlers Podcast: Down The Local with Mo Stewart (S1E5)
The fifth episode of season one of The Pub Crawlers Podcast was recorded ‘Down The Local’ in Liverpool, as Rob Gutmann hosts Steve Graves and Mo Stewart to discuss worst pub toilet experiences, music in pubs, Glastonbury, 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…
