Such sad news that Danny Kelly has died aged 69.
An exceptional broadcaster who brought warmth, personality and insight on air.
Had an encyclopaedic knowledge of European football and brought an infectious charm and sharp wit to all the shows he hosted.
Thoughts with Danny’s family and friends. He will be sorely missed.🙏
David Johnson bagged a brace in a 4-1 win over Middlesbrough in the League Cup 3rd round tie at Anfield on 10 November 1981, as the Reds marched towards their second back-to-back final.

In January 2024, Sven-Göran Eriksson told the world he had terminal cancer, and in the same breath he named the one football job he'd always wanted and never landed.
He'd managed England, won trophies across Europe and spent more than 40 years in the dugout. But his club, ever since he was a boy, was Liverpool.
“I’m a Liverpool supporter.”
“I’ve always wished to be the manager of Liverpool.”
That love began with his dad back in Sweden, back when they could catch one English game on telly each Saturday.
“We always hoped they would show Liverpool.”
In 1979, as a young manager at IFK Göteborg, Sven wanted to find out what made Liverpool tick. He wrote to the club and asked if he could come and watch them train.
“They said I was welcome to come.”
Off he went to watch Bob Paisley's European champions up close.
“I remember the training.”
“It was very simple, very high quality.”
He took in a game too, and was invited into the Boot Room afterwards. Liverpool were in a title race with Manchester United, so after about an hour of drinking tea, Sven asked how United had done that afternoon.
“We don’t know.”
He couldn't believe it.
“Can you imagine that you are so secure of yourself like Liverpool were?”
“They did it their way, they didn’t care what others did.”
His career went on to take him through Sweden, Portugal, Italy and England. At one point he even had talks with a Liverpool director about the manager's job, but nothing came of it. More than 40 years on from that first visit, it was still the one thing he wished he'd done.
Jürgen Klopp got wind of it.
“He’s very welcome to come here.”
“He can sit in my seat in my office and do my job for a day if he wants.”
The annual Legends game against Ajax was coming up at Anfield in March, and Sven was asked to manage the side alongside Ian Rush, John Barnes and John Aldridge.
“When they asked, I thought it was a joke.”
“Of course I will come to that.”
On the 23rd of March he walked out at Anfield in front of 59,655 people, with Steven Gerrard as his captain. Standing on the touchline before kick-off, he heard the Liverpool fans start You'll Never Walk Alone.
“I cried.”
“It was beautiful.”
The team he'd watched with his dad as a boy was finally his.
They were 2-0 down at the break, so Sven did what he'd always done. He switched the system, added width, made a load of changes, and Liverpool came out and scored four. Gerrard knew who deserved the credit.
“He changed everything at half-time.”
“He’s still got it, he’s still got the magic.”
“He made the difference.”
Liverpool won 4-2, but the scoreline barely mattered. A lifelong fan with more than 40 years in management had finally got his shot at managing them.
“To sit on the bench for Liverpool was the dream all my life.”
“Now it has happened.”
“It was beautiful, absolutely fantastic, incredible.”
“A memory for life.”
Even a friendly couldn't stop him tinkering at half-time and turning it round. Huge credit to Klopp and Liverpool for making sure he got that day.
