Tommy Smith played in the old-fashioned right-half position. I suppose nowadays he would be described as a defensive midfielder, although he frequently pushed forward; his distribution was excellent and he scored some great goals.
Tommy was a very classy player and I think it is a pity that he is now remembered mainly for being a hard tackler.
I don't remember Phil Thompson ever playing a midfield role. He did a job in defence but I always thought he was a pretty limited player. He would have struggled now that the back-pass to the keeper is illegal. ;D

All Scousers born circa 1950 or later, and all played more than a couple of games for us 🙂
Oops all except Warner that is who never played for us except at reserve level, but was a pro at Millwal and is a scouser Goalie.

Pinocchio definitely started out as a midfielder, Portly. As for his defending, no less a luminary than Billy Bremner described him once as a "walking roll of barbed wire". For sure he was no world-beater, but he held his end up in a pretty good side.
Agree about Smithy, a far better footballer than he's sometimes been given credit for.

No we're not. The wools can stay their side of the river. Scousers when it suits them.
Well to be truthful, I used to think like that, but on one long voyage, a shipmate who was from the one eyed city, wore me down, with statements like, 'How can I not be a scouser when I can see the Liverbird sitting on its perch from my bedroom window, and hear the chimes of the bleedin clock on a quite day!'
If we was Greater Liverpool instead of Merseyside, then it'd all be solved at long last. After all when Anfield was built, the stadium wasn't in Liverpool then either 🙂

What about Formby?

Yeah, thats well in.
Might be massively biased about that though.

I spent the years 0-2 in Netherton, but we moved to Formby when I started smoking
I spent 0-2 in Fairfield, so I've got some scouse claim regardless what Sheik says.
