      Basically saying late goals are lucky, then admitted that most football people with knowledge accept that isnt luck its just sheer force and persistence of good players with massive desire to win.

      So where was that being broadcast. I think the highlights I've seen (not on LFC TV, but on ESPN web site) was from that feed - but where was it meant to go live?

      Another reminder that getting hired for a commentator position isn't based on what you know, but who you know. Mostly I only use the volume so I can hear the crowd.

      I think he does a good job , he’s one of the better pundits out there , didn’t like the snivelling sh*t when he played , but that’s over , actually talks highly of our team .

      I think he's vastly overrated. He preaches as well. He judges United on past glories. I don't like him.He has more or less carte blanche on Sky to knock whoever he feels like. Sky give the same leeway to Andy Gray. He has to much influence. Some are taken in by his easy broadcasting style. Not me.

      I didn't hear many pundits having a pop at Aguero who went down under very little physical contact and stayed down. If that had been Mo or Sadio they would have been very loudly condemning them

      Ian Crocker. He does most of the Scottish Premier League games.

      Thanks mate.

      Yeah seen that on the game of the day on sky. Excellent bit of commentary.

      Same commentator though and I didn't pick it up first time but I did when watching the highlights, said as we were both coming out of the tunnel at the start of the Match....

      Liverpool are on a mission but in today they play the "away form specialists of the Competition".

      Now excuse F***ing me Crocker but haven't we won all our away games except the one against those Manc cu*ts where we drew?

      I thought we would be the Home and Away day specialists considering our exceptional record this Season!!!

      Haha. I guess we ARE the away form specialists.

      But in fairness to old Ian, he has to say SOMETHING to make it sound like an appealing matchup for viewers. It reminds me of the old Richard Lewis comedy bit about pro wrestling announcers - where the names of the respective fighters would give away what was going to happen.

      "In THIS corner, please welcome Hulk Hogan! (or) Razor Ramon! (or) Andre The GIANT!!!!

      And in THAT corner, it's BOB, THE MAN WITH NO NECK! (or) LENNY, THE BEDRIDDEN JEW"

      So for that game it would "The home side is Champions-Elect, current European and World Champion and Mentality Monsters LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVER POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OLLLLL.

      And the away side, the team that sold them some of their best players, perennial relegation-battlers, Saints!"

      Always had a bit of time for Stelling. But F**k me the bias is obvious there. And I love Tommo but he looked like a rabbit in the headlights. I have Sky at home, I am home rarely. But when I do get back I put SSN on and they are still obsessed with MU.
        We really have got them rattled. The establishment is fu**ed. I love the fact Stelling has a red nose he’s that upset LFC are doing so well. Let’s win all three we are still involved with and make him really upset. 😂

      Just listened to my first two episodes of Redmen TV podcast while working out at the gym. I thought it was pretty decent. The boys had an interesting take about how since it's been a while since Liverpool were very good, most Liverpool fans have a great familiarity with bitching about players that makes them revert to that even though we're as good as we are this season and last. It made me laugh, but judging by these boards, I think there is something to it.  :)

      Anyway, if you are desperate for more Liverpool content like I am, I recommend the podcast.

      The other one I listen to is Red Agenda on The Athletic. I know about The Anfield Wrap but am not paying at the moment. Recognizing there is a glut of podcasts on any and all topics these days that never seem to rise above the level of someone who only likes to hear himself talk, are there any others about LFC to recommend?

      He obviously knows the game and knows what he talking about. But he gets paid to talk football as do plenty of retired players. So they have to be informed, they keep up with all the stats etc. Having an informed opinion doesn't necessarily mean it's correct or beyond reproach. My view is his opinions are given to much weight largly through his role on Sky Sports.

      His only foray into club management was at Valencia. This choice given that Neville speaks no Spanish and only had limited experience in management, was flawed from the off and he was sacked after 16 or so games.

      We should respect his opinions but treat him as just another pundit, no better or worse than any other and just as likely to be wrong as right.

      Given that Bournemoth hold down a spot in the Premier League on gates of about 11,000 and may be Brentford in on a 12,000 gate or so could be Lim, Neville and Co will get Salford in the Prem..who knows..hope not...currently 13th in Div 2.
