Ahead of Marine v Wrexham in the FA Cup fourth qualifying round, the trophy was in Crosby in celebration of its 150 year anniversary. Andy Heaton hosts goalkeeper Bayleigh Passant and club chairman Paul Leary to talk about how the Tottenham game last season has helped...
In a TAW Special, Gareth Roberts, Mike Nevin and Simon Hughes sit down with four former Liverpool academy graduates who now ply their trade five miles north of Anfield for Crosby’s Marine AFC in the Evo-Stik Northern Premier League. Craig Lindfield and Robbie...
HERE we are again then. Not Easter, eating fish, buying chocolate and pretending to be religious, but an international break. Can’t be arsed with them. I can’t get excited about international football when there’s absolutely nothing riding on it....
WHETHER it’s age or the work I do, I’ve become less emotionally attached to the football I watch as time has progressed. Being paid to sit in football stadiums and report on matches is a privilege. It’s the best part of the job because, for all of the talk in all of...
I READ with interest Richard Felton’s emotionally-charged piece on TAW yesterday about how he’d made the life-changing decision to eschew his love for Liverpool Football Club and instead follow non-league Marine. Such was Richard’s evident disillusionment with the...
LOADS have done it — given up going the match. Temporarily or permanently, whether it’s the rise in ticket prices, the ‘match-day experience’ or just falling out of love with it all, the make up of the Anfield crowd has changed as long-term...
I was 14 when I first found myself within the confines of Anfield, one of just 17,228 souls present to watch the Reds dismantle Crewe Alexandra 5-1 in the Rumblelows Cup in 1990. Twenty four years later, it’s not the goals or the goalscorers that jump immediately to...

The Pub Crawlers Podcast: Nottingham (S1E3)
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…
