Jim Boardman and Mike Nevin return for another look at life as a Red in the hometown of the current champions of England, Europe and the World. Topics under discussion this week include Graeme Souness’s recollections from before his time at Anfield and of being a young player under the legendary Jack Charlton. Also, tributes needed paying - and get paid - to Clive Tyldesley, for the way he always made his 1980s Merseyside audience feel they were behind the Iron Curtain with him as the Reds went ventured to faraway places in the hunt for precious silver. And of course, his words in 2005.
