"The match-winner who became king. Behind a paper-strewn desk high in Student's Union building, two famous feet twitched. Feet that belonged to the original, uncrowned king of football lore - Billy Liddell. Feet of power and romance that longed for the old days as their owner reflected on past affairs of plunder. Now he spends his days signing the accounts, checking figures and helping run the financial side of the Guild of Undergraduates.
It is said that when Liddell called at the Anfield ground one day last year, five years after the close of his career - work stopped on the new stand that was being built. 'There's Billy Liddell', a navvy gasped. To a man they removed their industrial helmets, clutched them reverently to their waists and bowed their heads. The old master was passing through."
Liverpool have made a shaky start to their 2026/27 Premier League campaign. Their performances have varied considerably, with encouraging victories followed by frustrating draws and a heavy defeat against Manchester City. Nevertheless, the Reds remain close to the top of the group.
Three matches, three victories, and a tournament-leading haul of twelve goals scored. On paper, Liverpool sit joint top of the Champions League standings with a maximum nine points, one of only two unbeaten teams in the entire competition.
New Brighton began as a Liverpool merchant's idea. In the 1830s James Atherton bought land at the north-east corner of the Wirral, at the mouth of the Mersey, and laid out a resort with his son-in-law, William Rowson. He named it after Brighton, the resort he hoped to emulate.
Manchester City’s visit on 11 October will add another match to Anfield’s long record. Before the teams emerge, the ground will already be doing what it has done across generations of Liverpool sides: turning a fixture into a shared event with a memory of everything that came before it.
