Jim Boardman is joined by Karl Coppack as they discuss if it’s time for Graeme Souness to be reconciled fully with the club he won so much at as a player. Also, is the price of Premier League success paid in shirts and what exactly is it that makes a certain former Reds left-back cause so much annoyance years after he left?
Mike Nevin was joined by Alieu Melody to discuss his "SONG FOR LIVERPOOL". Mike asks Alieu about supporting the Reds in Sierra Leone, and how he became a Liverpool fan, and Alieu gives us a performance of the song on the podcast!
Jim Boardman and Mike Nevin turn their attention this week to some of the Anfield matchday traditions that are hopefully coming back after lockdown, including the usual welcome given to ex-Reds, and wonder if the Kop’s long-standing tribute to opposition keepers is slowly dying out. Also this week, the two talk about the parallels between this league title and some of the near-misses over the past few decades.
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.
After telling everyone for years just how good it is to win the league, Jim Boardman and Mike Nevin have some fresh evidence courtesy of Jurgen and the boys. Now do you believe us?
With a minor role from a happy traffic warden, Mike and Jim do their best to offload 30 years of frustration and near misses into one hour, emotional at times but most of all just full of joy that the wait is finally over.
PS. It’s Campioni, you wools!
30 years since they last saw it happen, Jim Boardman and Karl Coppack get together to talk about the 19th time it happened, for the first time since football began in the early nineties. Liverpool are League Champions, what else could they chat about? Did they feel the urge to gloat at everyone else, how does this squad compare to what won the other titles and was the souvenir Echo in colour this time?
Mike is back in the hosting chair for this one and is joined by Marc McColgan to chat about what was going on with The Reds before the interruption, and what we might see on Sunday.Â
Jim Boardman and Mike Nevin are back, wondering this time if it’s okay to get a little bit excited that the football is about to return. Where would be best for The Reds to clinch Title 19 in the year of Covid 19? Would some club’s players even notice their games were being played behind closed doors? Can Liverpool afford to splash £50m on players in the current climate? And how would a Scouse Nan let you know you’d driven her up the wall?
Jim Boardman is joined this time by Guy Drinkel for special episode looking at Guy’s journey to becoming a Red from a distance and how even the Hodgson era wasn’t going to get in the way. There’s time to discuss the heavily paused season so far and how it might play out now there’s a glimmer of hope of it actually being played. Jim also asks Guy for his All Time LFC XI - will there be any surprises?
