James Milner has been commemorated at Liverpool’s new training ground, and Dave Segar writes that he’s more than deserving of his place in our history… THERE are very few new ways to honour the greats of football. Mad-looking statues, naming...
THE world is a crazy place at the moment. Whether it’s global pandemics, wholly unqualified leaders of nations or Liverpool dropping points at Anfield, this world is not the one we once knew. OK, that may be an overreaction to the Champions drawing at home to Burnley...
BY the time you read this, the Thiago Alcantara to Liverpool links will have been comprehensively dismissed as nonsense. I have absolutely no inside information on this, it’s just what tends to happen when I choose to write about a transfer rumour. I don’t really like...
I DIDN’T know how it was going to feel. As someone who has always had impeccably bad timing, I was born in the mid-80s. While Liverpool were winning the league title in 1990, I was more concerned with how Thomas the Tank Engine was going to get himself out of another...
THE more things change, the more they stay the same. No crowd, no handshakes, and because it was a Merseyside derby at Goodison Park, no goals. The big wait for football to return and for Liverpool to continue their procession to an inevitable Premier League title...
TODAY is Jürgen Klopp’s 53rd birthday, but he won’t be treating it any differently to any other day. The Liverpool manager will be hard at work preparing for the resumption of the Premier League, and Sunday’s Merseyside derby against Everton. I am sure it will not...
IT appears that Liverpool will not be signing Timo Werner. Through the cinders of social media rage from some Reds, the club carries on its business, including confirming yesterday that Harry Wilson will remain at Bournemouth for the remainder of the season. It is an...
IN the anniversary week of Liverpool’s 2019 Champions League final victory, we at The Anfield Wrap are looking at our own experiences from that night. Last year, I detailed the evening I enjoyed in sunny Sussex by the sea with The Brighton Kop. So rather than largely...
I WONDER if you’re one of those people who attributes the glory of Istanbul to a mere half-time substitution. I wouldn’t blame you if you did, but you’d be barking up the wrong tree. It’s not your fault. You can’t possibly know the truth behind the greatest comeback...
I HAD a strange relationship with Liverpool’s 2004-5 Champions League campaign. I didn’t watch the Olympiakos game live. It was a friend’s 18th birthday party and I felt obligated to go, coupled with being too nervous to watch the game, so I recorded it with the aim...
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…
