Another week, another pair of defeats and no sign of it coming to an end any time soon. On this week's Scouser Tommies Jim Boardman and Jay Reid are frustrated with what is fast becoming a serious crisis. Five months after parading the Premier League trophy around the streets of Liverpool, why are Arne Slot and his players making it look like it never happened? Defeats against Brentford and Palace, six goals conceded across the two games, out of the cup, 7th in the league, Anfield miserable and not just because of the biblical rain swirling down onto the pitch. Was it right to play the kids in the League Cup, to guarantee going out and leave some room in the calendar for rest? Or was this the one time to go big so early in this competition, stop the slide? Playing the kids made it easier to come up with an excuse, but is it time to stop sharing excuses and start coming up with answers? There isn't just one big problem with Liverpool right now, It's a multitude of smaller ones and so many of them feel avoidable. And so many have responsibility for that, even if all eyes are on the one man who has to try and explain all these defeats to fans through the media. Words can be powerful and the hosts are worried about how much damage some words, unintentionally, might just be doing. One example of those problems the hosts point to is just how much the Reds are missing their last No.7 - his enthusiasm, his determination, his ability to get fans on their feet as he fights for a win. Where is the fight now? And where is the plan? The current No.7 is a different kind of player, expected to play a very different role, but has anyone worked out what that is? That No.7 shirt is huge at this club, worn by arguably the greatest man in Liverpool FC history; a player, a manager, a part of the very fabric of this club. Kenny Dalglish of course, who has a movie coming out next week all about his life and especially his time at Anfield. The movie shows The King's ability to balance self belief and confidence with his humility and trademark humour, and gives viewers a real insight into the philosophy that this club is rooted in. The hosts discuss how much the current incumbent of one of the biggest jobs in world football, and his charges, could learn from the great man and his career. Watching the movie would be a good start, but maybe they could do with some one on ones. The hosts aren't saying Arne should go and get coaching hints from The King, or that players should get lessons in how to defend set pieces from him, but there is so much the great man could talk to them about that might just inspire them, might just help him, might just see them through the most pressure some of them have ever been under. And there are other legends who could offer insight that isn't in the coaching manuals. Also in this week's episode Jim and Jay look at the idea of using a back three - as seen in the League Cup - and look at the options for who could make up that three if it was transferred to the big games. What might it bring, what would it take away, would there be potential to give decent service to the front men the club now has? Would it give the Reds the stability needed to get out of this rut? Huge games lie in front of the Champions now, starting with Aston Villa and followed in rapid succession by Real Madrid and then Manchester City, before another international break arrives to interrupt it all. Do Liverpool need tweaks or upheaval, and what might a credible “stop the bleeding” plan actually look like? As always, no matter how bad it gets for us, our old mates from down by the river always manage to find a way to cheer us up. Not that they mean to. Learn more about your ad choices.

In episode 313 of the Glass and Out Podcast we visited the University of St. Thomas campus in Minnesota to chat with Tommies Head Coach Rico Blasi. Blasi's coaching career dates back to 1994 with the Wexford Raiders. He would take over the University of Miami (Ohio) program, his alma matter, at the ripe old age of 27 - and would eventually turn them into a perennial contender. Now in his fifth season at St. Thomas, he has the Tommies on a similar track to success in the brand new Lee & Penny Anderson Arena. As you'll hear, Blasi's story is a reminder that while we're all on our respective coaching journeys, life is happening all around us. Listen as he shares his approach to getting players to play free, why the human need for connection is a vital part of coaching, and why his favourite day of the week is "Battle Tuesdays."

After two miserable losses on the bounce for Liverpool, Jim Boardman and Jay Reid try to keep spirits up on this week's Scouser Tommies. They share their views on where things have gone wrong for the Reds since opening up that five point gap at the top of the Premier League, also remembering they are actually still top of the table! For Jay and Jim it's not so much one major flaw that needs fixing as perhaps a list of smaller problems where tweaks, and maybe some patience, are required. For Jay there's a question mark about whether the sides Slot is putting out have enough leaders, and identifies at least one spot in the side where that might make a difference. Listen in as the duo discuss their thoughts on what's changed between this season and last, the defeats coming after a run of wins that some are describing as lucky. For Jim one major flaw isn't so much about conceding goals, it's more about being unable to create enough quality chances for what is on paper a mouthwatering array of attacking options. Attention turns to the weekend's Chelsea clash, a chance to stop this blip turning into something more before yet another international break. A win would restore so much confidence in the camp, and Jim and Jay both urge a return to basics this weekend before using that international break to dig deep and study the details of Liverpool's recent difficulties. If anyone at the club tunes in they'll hear views on everything from selection dilemmas at right-back to the challenge of getting the best out of Mo Salah and Cody Gakpo, not to mention the new boys. It's a search for answers along with honest reflections on the midfield shuffle and how small tweaks, not wholesale changes, could help Liverpool get back to winning ways. As bad as it might seem right now to be at the top of the Premier League table, and still on course to finish in the all important top 24 of the Champions League mad League phase, as has been pointed out on the show many a time, there's always a way to help cheer up. Because there's always Everton. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

After another mad Monday night at St James's Park, Jim Boardman and Jay Reid are back to dissect that dramatic 3-2 win for the Reds over Newcastle United. The duo dive straight into the chaos that unfolded in the North East, where the Geordies tried their best to create a hostile atmosphere with their "get into them" banners and owner-led social media wind-ups. Did it all backfire spectacularly when young Rio Ngumoha broke their hearts with the winner in his Premier League debut? They don't hold back on Newcastle's behaviour throughout the summer during this whole Isak saga, culminating in what we saw on Monday. From booing Ekitike every time he touched the ball to their owners and management letting fans think they're the hard-done-by party in all this, the attempts at faking some long-standing bitter rivalry to get everyone up for the challenge was laughable by the end. Jay and Jim explore how being a one-club city might be doing Newcastle no favours, suggesting they're living in a bit of an echo chamber without the reality checks - with heaps of sarcasm usually thrown in - that come from having proper local rivals. Meanwhile, they dissect Simon Hooper's referee performance (did chest-cam put him off?) and that inevitable Anthony Gordon red card that had been brewing all night. Looking ahead, there's the small matter of Arsenal coming to Anfield this weekend, with another ref who's made a name for himself, Chris Kavanagh, in the middle - and the lads have plenty to say about that particular appointment. They also touch on the neighbours' new stadium down by the river (drink every time you hear ‘down by the river') and some of the teething problems Everton are having with their fancy new gaff. As always with Scouser Tommies, it's passionate, funny, and unapologetically red. The perfect listen for any Liverpool fan still buzzing from that last-minute winner and already looking ahead to the next battle. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Jim Boardman and Jay Reid return for a new episode of Scouser Tommies, looking ahead to the pre-season tour and the season itself, as well as discussing the latest transfer stories. First of all, however, is the first chance for Jay and Jim to talk about the shocking and sudden loss of Diogo Jota. They discuss the impact of his passing on the club – players, coaches, staff, and fans – and even the wider footballing world. The club's handling of the tragedy has been perfect, including the decision to retire Diogo's No. 20 shirt, and it has been moving to see just how far and wide the tributes have come from. The Reds have now returned to action, with their first pre-season game a win over Preston last weekend. As Jay explains, it was odd to see the players still wearing last season's shirts, but Nike have clearly stuck to their guns over their contract with the Reds. It won't be until after the tour of Japan that we see our players donning the new Adidas offerings – not that it's stopped said shirts from appearing elsewhere. The recruitment team at Anfield have already been busy this summer, mostly with players coming in, and the latest stories suggest there is still plenty of money available to spend. Jim and Jay discuss what this might mean for next season in terms of challenging on all fronts. With PSR (Profitability and Sustainability Rules) still in place, clubs are going to have to be more careful about how and when they spend their money. However, it seems Liverpool have plenty of headroom given the stadium expansion, strong commercial performance, and even stronger on-pitch performance. Not spending money for the sake of it last summer hasn't done any harm either. Money isn't everything, of course, and whilst plenty of it is still needed to sign players of the quality required to improve Liverpool, there's far more to signing for the Reds than that. To fit in at Anfield, money would not be the clincher for the right kind of player. Jay and Jim talk about why playing at Anfield will be such a draw for potential new signings, and why it might just be what makes it so difficult for other clubs to hold onto their stars.

Jim Boardman and Jay Reid are back with another episode of Scouser Tommies, the first one since Virgil Van Dijk lifted the 20th League Title for the Reds in front of a packed Anfield.. It's been a while, but Jay has been busy, to be fair. And whilst he had extra special reasons to celebrate, the whole city has been in a party mood for quite some time now. (Not quite the whole city, of course; some isolated areas haven't had a sniff of a title party for 30 years now!) On this week's show, Jim and Jay look back on that momentous day when Virgil lifted that trophy, the iconic image of the skipper holding that shiny chunk of silver aloft that will live long in the memory. They also touch on the contrasting feelings that came out of that victory parade, a day that had been filled with pride as countless Reds made the pilgrimage to see their kings, celebrating in typical good humor, before the horrific scenes that, as awful as they were, thankfully—miraculously—weren't as bad as we all feared they would be. The response, too, from those in the city, the offers of help, said so much about the true Liverpool. With a certain former Liverpool player swapping his No. 66 for the shirt usually worn by the sub before squad numbers came in, Jay and Jim look at how the feelings have started to change from those who were critical of the reception the player got from the fans he claims he loves. More and more see just why that reception was deserved. He's not the first, he won't be the last, but as Jim and Jay discuss, he's done it in the worst possible way and ensured he won't be remembered in the same way as some of those true legends whose names grace the official LFC museum—long after their boots were hung up for the last time. From tears in front of the Sky cameras to showing off the kind of fluent Spanish you don't pick up overnight, it's been quite the planned departure. More important than any of that is the fact that Liverpool have some new faces on the way in, the club showing true intent this summer to ensure Arne Slot has what he needs to turn one league title into a period of sustained success. Jay and Jim look at the signing of Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen, a direct and exciting replacement for that player who's just left. Most exciting of all is the impending record transfer of Florian Wirtz, Frimpong's Leverkusen teammate, and Jay explains just how popular that player is amongst his own countrymen. Those signings, along with the likely arrival of Milos Kerkez, are a massive statement of intent from the champions. Isn't it nice saying, “The Champions”, by the way? The hosts talk about how last season was basically a "test run" for Arne and wonder just how he's going to fare when he gets his hands on the players he's had a hand in signing himself. Last season was just the beginning; will we see a new style of play in the next campaign? Will these new signings allow him to truly stamp his authority on the team's style? To wrap things up, there's a moment for Jay and Jim to point out some social media posts that caught their eyes, with an old face who's still not welcome in isolated parts of the city, and a post from Liverpool Airport that really put a certain ex-player in his place.

UNIRONIC BATTLE CAPTAINS OF D-DAY. 8/8: The Commanders: The Leadership Journeys of George Patton, Bernard Montgomery, and Erwin Rommel by Lloyd Clark (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Commanders-Leadership-Journeys-Bernard-Montgomery/dp/0802160220/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1IW4D1GLPGRA5&keywords=the+commanders+lloyd+clark&qid=1674136061&s=books&sprefix=THE+COMMANDERS%2Cstripbooks%2C141&sr=1-1 Born in the two decades prior to World War I, George Patton, Bernard Montgomery, and Erwin Rommel became among the most recognized and successful military leaders of the 20th century.

Join Jim Boardman and Jay Reid as they soak in the incredible atmosphere enveloping the city of Liverpool ahead of a monumental Bank Holiday weekend. The city is buzzing with events, from Radio One's Big Weekend to cruise liners docking, but most important of all it's the final game of the season - a formality to go through before that long-awaited trophy lift, ahead of the victory parade through the city's streets on Monday. For Jay, that trophy lift is an especially poignant moment; it's the first time in his lifetime he'll witness Liverpool lift the league trophy at Anfield – a ticket he wouldn't sell for any price. It's the first time the Reds have lifted the league trophy in front of fans at Anfield for 35 years, so a large chunk of the Liverpool support are in the same boat. Two of the greatest centre-backs in football history will be on the pitch as the trophy gets lifted, with true club legend Alan Hansen set to present the trophy to future club legend Virgil Van Dijk, adding to the symbolism of the occasion. Jurgen Klopp will be there too, keeping to his promise of coming back but not in a way that would interfere with the work of Arne Slot. No surprise he's there; he's as big a fan as any of us, and every fan wants to be there. If only - but Anfield, as big as it now is, can't possibly contain every Red who wants to be there on Sunday. In fact, if estimates of how many people are heading into the city for the weekend are true, 16 Anfields wouldn't be enough. No problem though; the city is ready to showcase its unique, welcoming spirit and show how it throws a party, as the Reds' heroes show that trophy off from the top of a bus! The last match itself sees Liverpool host Crystal Palace. With both teams in a celebratory mood (Palace fresh from their own FA Cup triumph), Jay and Jim are wondering if it's even worth bothering with the footy itself. Jim and Jay reflect on a season where Liverpool exceeded expectations to clinch that title, but with transfer windows set to open, work needs to be done to ensure new expectations are met. No Red expected Slot to be so successful so soon - but all Reds want more of the same. The hosts briefly discuss some of the transfer rumours swirling around potential incomings like Frimpong and Kerkez, and possible departures including the respected Joe Gomez and potentially Darwin Nunez. Since the show was recorded, rumours about Florian Wirtz leaving Germany for Merseyside have gathered pace, but until he's had his photo holding up his new shirt, Jay and Jim are assuming nothing. There's also discussion on manager Arne Slot's latest press conference, particularly his comments on Trent Alexander-Arnold's training and defensive application, and how the media has portrayed this. The hosts touch on how Trent might be received and the importance of focusing on the collective celebration. What advice would the hosts give Arne, if he asked, on how to handle this last bit with Trent? As for that victory parade, the hosts offer some tips for fans wanting to catch a glimpse of the champions. It's a time to savour the moment, celebrate a hard-won title, and look forward to what the future holds for the Reds. As always, there's plenty to laugh about from across the park, although you aren't likely to find any of them there as the A55 clogs up under the weight of a blue-tinged exodus to North Wales. Sunday will also mark the final match for George Sephton, the iconic 'Voice of Anfield'. His voice has boomed around Anfield for decades, since the days the Reds were winning titles almost every season. He really is and has been part of Anfield - he's been there for the good times and the bad, and it really won't be the same without him. Thanks for everything, George, from all of us.

Jim Boardman and Jay Reid are back with the latest Scouser Tommies as they finally get to say the words they, and every Liverpool fan, have been waiting for: "We won the League!" To be fair, they've been saying it at every opportunity for a few days now. Still buzzing from that title-clinching victory at Anfield, Jay and Jim dive into the almost surreal feeling of Liverpool being back on that perch again. They discuss what this long-awaited triumph means, especially for the generation of fans witnessing it for the first time. They look back at the match itself – the electric atmosphere inside and outside the ground, the performance that blew the opposition away (despite that early wobble), and the sheer style with which Liverpool's League title No.20 was secured. It was a day that no Red, whether there or watching from afar, will ever forget, featuring the kind of goals that were perfect for the occasion. Amidst the celebrations came all kinds of information, and maybe a bit of misinformation. Jim and Jay discuss some of the details shared about the tweaks Arne Slot implemented to bring the best out of the very good squad Jurgen Klopp passed onto him. They also weigh up how much can be read into the future of a certain out-of-contract player from his interactions after the game and certain cryptic social media hints. There is, of course, plenty of praise for Arne Slot for all he's achieved in this incredible first season, and the players he's done it with. They also recognize that while the celebrations will continue well into the new season, he'll be working hard to maintain this success. As Jay points out, Slot has certainly got the attention of the powers-that-be when it comes to discussing what he'll need to keep the squad ahead of the rest. There's also discussion of some of the great content circulating about the Reds becoming champions again, as well as news of a new song for Arne Slot. Now's as good a time as any for the boss to get a new ditty, especially after he kind of handed back the one Jurgen Klopp gave him 11 months ago. This new one even comes with actions, as Jay explains. Talking of songs, there's a Scouser in this team who needs one. As always, there's plenty to laugh about from across the park, but with them being so miraculously quiet, it was down to Harvey Elliott to help us out. There's loads more in the show, basically an hour celebrating a moment that was far too long in the making. The celebrations will indeed continue. Learn more about your ad choices.

Jim Boardman and Jay Reid are back on Scouser Tommies and are struggling to contain their excitement. The Reds are a single point away from winning their twentieth league title, and can do it on home turf in this city of ours. Winning the title is obviously this club's ‘bread and butter', but should it all go to plan on Sunday this one will be the first one clinched in front of fans since 1990, and so for many Reds, including Jay, the first one they've witnessed in person. One point will be enough, but everyone wants more than that, and the visitors might be one of the best sides the Reds could face. There was one bad result against Spurs this season, the first leg in the League Cup, but the return at Anfield ended 4-0 for Slot's side and Jay would be happy with a repeat of that scoreline. As Jim points out, with Arsenal managing a point during the week it avoided the scenario many a fan of certain rivals would have preferred, with Liverpool becoming Champions without even playing. Whoever scores the winning goal will be remembered for winning the league, much like Kenny in ‘86 at Stamford Bridge. But Jay doesn't want just one winning goal. Jay shares his personal excitement about potentially witnessing Liverpool win the league at Anfield for the very first time, a momentous occasion that his generation of fans hasn't experienced live at the stadium. Jim recalls his memories of one previous occasion when a title was clinched at Anfield, way back in 1988, and recalls the unique feeling of being at the ground when the league is secured. The conversation then turns to the crucial role of the fans, with a strong call to action to make Anfield a cauldron of noise on Sunday. Manager Arnie Slot and captain Virgil van Dijk have both emphasized the importance of the crowd's energy, urging everyone to wear Red, sing loud, and be the twelfth man that can intimidate the opposition.If you are at the game, do what you can to wear Red, it doesn't have to be a replica shirt, and Jay and Jim have a few suggestions on what you can do to make sure you're dressed in the right colour. There's also some discussion on the ongoing speculation surrounding Trent Alexander-Arnold's future, particularly in light of his recent goal and passionate celebration. Should he start against Spurs, if fit? Are we almost at the point where he can show his hand and end the speculation once and for all? Then can we get back to celebrating that title (once it's there to be celebrated, of course)? As always there's something to laugh about courtesy of our friends across the park, and one rumour in particular, if true, could cheer them up in the way they like to be cheered up the most - at our expense.For now though, the focus is on our side of the park, and all being well the goals that finally put the Reds back on top of that perch.

Rereleased in memory of Jan Gorski-Mescir. In this special edition of Scouser Tommies, Jim Boardman and Jan Gorski-Mescir discussed the career of Liverpool legend Ray Kennedy after his death at the age of 70. Bill Shankly's last signing, Ray would go on to be a key part of the Bob Paisley era, instrumental in the Reds making that step up from regular league title winners to regular European title winners. In Paisley's words, Ray was “one of Liverpool's greatest players and probably the most underrated” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Join Jim Boardman and Jay Reid on the Scouser Tommies podcast as they dissect Liverpool's crucial, yet increasingly nervy, end-of-season run-in. With the first potential fan-attended title win in 35 years tantalisingly close, they debate whether player complacency, nerves, or even a less intense Anfield crowd are contributing to the recent dip in form, especially when compared to famous European nights. Jay, speaking from his own match-day experiences, suggests factors like fan inexperience, the distraction of phones, and the impact of hospitality might be diluting Anfield's traditional cauldron-like atmosphere. The hosts ponder potential solutions, including encouraging fans to arrive earlier to recreate the legendary pre-match Kop buzz, stressing that both players and fans need to feed off each other to get over the line. The decreasing uncertainty surrounding Trent Alexander-Arnold's future, at least officially, amid persistent Real Madrid links, is thoroughly explored. Jim and Jay discuss the fan disappointment over how the situation is unfolding, referencing Paddy Pimblett's comments about a local lad potentially taking his unique position for granted, and consider if this paves the way for Conor Bradley to secure an extended run at right-back. Amid the Trent speculation, there's positive news with Mohamed Salah's new deal signed and Virgil van Dijk strongly hinting his own extension is imminent. Securing these experienced leaders allows focus to shift to summer strengthening, balancing recruitment with developing the club's own talent, highlighted by the emergence of players like Kelleher, Bradley, and Quansah. Finally, Jim and Jay put the season into perspective, reminding listeners that Liverpool have already exceeded expectations set back in August. Despite recent stumbles, the achievement remains remarkable, and the hope is to secure title number 20 convincingly – ideally at Anfield. As always, there's plenty to laugh about from that lot across the park. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Rereleased in memory of Jan Gorski-Mescir. Jim Boardman was once again joined by Jan as they continued the discussion of Jan's time as a Liverpool fan, including his move away from the city and his support from further afield. Also, Jan gets an opportunity for the somewhat tricky task of choosing his all-time LFC XI, in his case made extra difficult by having more years as a match-watching Red to choose players from!

Rereleased in memory of Jan Gorski-Mescir. Jim Boardman was joined by Jan Gorski-Mescir for another of the special “back stories” episodes. In the first of two parts, Jan explained what it was that turned him into a Liverpool fan and it is arguably the most unique, definitely the most moving, of all the stories we've shared so far. Once he had become a Red, what was it about Anfield that kept him going back, and what was it like to be on the Kop in the era the nation, indeed the world, found out how special it was?

Rereleased in memory of Jan Gorski-Mescir. Jim Boardman was joined by Jan for a chat that sometimes gets onto football. They talked about what sets Liverpool apart from the rest of England, at least in their view, and they don't mean Covid restrictions, and how the current Reds boss compares to the man who turned the club around so much in the sixties, Bill Shankly. Also, did the Premier League clubs get right with the PPV plan - or could it have been even worse? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
After what felt like the longest international break in football history, Jim Boardman and Jay Reid are back for another episode of Scouser Tommies, as the Reds get back to winning ways and move another step closer to league title number 20, despite the PGMOL's best efforts. The win came courtesy of Diogo Jota's Merseyside Derby goal, one with a tinge of controversy. Liverpool's 1-0 win extended David Moyes's miserable Anfield record - he's won as many games at Anfield as Everton had shots on target in this match. What's that about proving you don't have to win to win trophies to be a winner? The controversy over Jota's goal was minor, and as Jim and Jay point out, easily explained. According to the laws of the game, Luis Diaz wasn't interfering from an offside position, although miserable Moyesie might need it explaining to him a few more times. Less minor was the controversy over James Tarkowski's tackle on Alexie Mac Allister. When even Duncan Ferguson is calling it a straight red card, there's not much room for manoeuvre. Or at least you'd think so, but many a blue will be defending that for years to come, if asked. Just before they start to rattle on about the ‘offside' goal. Another one for their long list. The PGMOL did point out the following day that Tarkowski's horror show should have been a red, but there was no sign of an explanation as to how Greater Manchester referee Paul Tierney, on VAR duty, failed to spot what everyone else did. Liverpool's next ref is from even closer to the city of Manchester. As discussed in the show, the derby win was much-needed and it really sets the Reds up well, and Jay discusses where Liverpool could be playing if and when they do finish the job. Not that the job is finished yet of course, and as Jim points out, next opponents Fulham aren't always an easy team to beat at their own place. As well as the highs of the derby win there's time to discuss the defeat at Wembley just before this break, and Jim wonders if maybe we are taking these occasions for granted. However, as Jay points out, the disappointment of losing that game will fade into nowhere if the Reds do complete the job in the competition that matters most, one we've not been able to take for granted for many a year. In addition this week, Jay and Jim discuss the Scouser in the team, Curtis Jones, who played at right-back in the derby and was on the receiving end of a lot of praise from his boss. There's also a discussion on the Scouser out injured, Trent Alexander Arnold, whose future was under even more of a spotlight during the international break. Has he already played his last game for his boyhood club? With this show coming so close to a derby, there was always going to be a mention of the neighbours and their comedic acts.
