Scouser Tommies: TALENT SHOWS

Jim Boardman and Jay Reid return to discuss all things LFC from Liverpool. The Reds’ run of wins goes on, but why did it take until now to happen? Curtis Jones continues to impress and Trent is revelling in his new-found freedom, does that change what’s needed in the summer window? Off the field, as the dust settles on the crazy Eurovision festival, are people finally starting to see what this place and its people are really like? And, as always, the neighbours are giving us plenty of laughs - and not just their YNWA fume.

Scouser Tommies: LOCAL INGREDIENTS

In this week’s Scouser Tommies Jim Boardman and Jay Reid catch up on the wins against Leeds, Forest and West Ham and look ahead to the visit of Spurs. As one local lad has been getting attention for the freedom he’s been given on the pitch, another one’s quietly cemented himself into the starting line up. The unbeaten run puts a European spot safely into the Reds’ own hands, but is there hope of avoiding the Thursday night version? And of course, there’s always something going on across the park to raise a smile.

Scouser Tommies: ELBOWS AND SHOULDERS

Jim Boardman, Jay Reid and Tony Evans are back to talk all things Liverpool from a local perspective and there is a lot to get through this week. Linesmen’s elbows, gambling sponsors, the Grand National, missed transfer targets and a former manager. Apart from that there’s plenty to say about what’s going on right now at Anfield, as well as a chuckle about the neighbours.

Scouser Tommies: UNEARNED REST

Jim Boardman and Jay Reid are back to talk all things Red from Liverpool. The huge win over the Mancs a fading memory, a couple of defeats in a row leaves LFC to concentrate on an increasingly unlikely top four finish, with a rapidly disappearing midfield, just as we’re told we’ll pay more to go to a match next season. As always, no matter how blue that makes us feel, at least we aren’t actually Blue.

Scouser Tommies: FESTIVAL OF HATE

Jim Boardman is joined by Jay Reid and Tony Evans as the Reds prepare for the visit of that lot from down the East Lancs, stirring up memories of so many past encounters. As rivalries go, what sets it apart from the one with that lot from across the park? Also, is it okay to speak ill of the dead when they spent so many years speaking ill of ours?

Scouser Tommies: THE ANFIELD GROAN

Jim Boardman and Jay Reid are back with the latest on Liverpool FC from Merseyside, where all there is to cling to is another clean sheet and the reassurance that no matter how bad it gets, there’s always the neighbours. Next up Wolves, Everton’s relegation rivals, before the clash against the old enemy from down the Lancs, but which one will the Reds make hard work of the most?

Scouser Tommies: MONUMENTAL

Jim Boardman and Jay Reid are back for another episode of Scouser Tommies in the week the Reds beat the blues yet again in what might be the last derby for a while. There’s a look ahead to Newcastle and Real Madrid, as well as plenty of thoughts on UEFA’s belated corporate apology for putting fans lives at risk almost a year ago. Meanwhile, why do the FA seem more focussed on Andy Robbo laughing at England’s keeper than on the kind of chanting that brings genuine disrepute to the game?

Scouser Tommies: CHICKEN AND CHIPS

Jim Boardman, Jay Reid and Tony Evans are back to chat all things LFC from a Scouse perspective. As derby day looms large there couldn’t be a better time for the Reds to finally find their feet - but will they? With some club’s finances and breakaway leagues back in the news what does it all mean for Liverpool? Also, is there any truth in the social media theories that fans from out of town aren’t welcome?

Scouser Tommies: CECIL’S BANNER

As takeover talk dominates the football conversation, not just for Liverpool, Jim Boardman and Tony Evans look back to the last time it happened to the Reds and the destructive, vicious, build up to the sale. More headlines on the business pages than the back pages, talking more about Wall Street than Anfield Road, two cowboys fighting each other and the banks with the help of their posse and none of them caring about the club they bled dry. With paranoid dossiers, threats to fans, and more liars than goalscorers, we’d have gone mad if we weren’t so mad.

Scouser Tommies: TAKEAWAY

Tony Evans joins Jim Boardman and Jay Reid to discuss the latest goings on at the best city’s best club. Have FSG had any luck from their fishing trip for buyers of Liverpool FC - or will they have to go the chippy for their tea? Takeover sagas aren’t always what they seem. Meanwhile, it looks like Jurgen Klopp won’t be able to make any repairs to his tired and broken midfield, so is it time to look at new ways of spending the spare change from the club’s ever-growing revenues? As always, no matter how bad it feels for Reds it’s always worse across the park, but has it gone beyond a joke now?
