11/27/20 • 50 min
Join Rich Hurst of West Brom and Alan Keegan of Man Utd as they chat to Liam Brown from Wigan Athletic
He carries a couple of great stories around with him...he was there when the Latics beat Man City in the FA Cup at the DW Stadium and played an Oasis song at the final whistle...he was also there, standing in at AFC Fylde, when he was victim of one of the most notorious fake car number plate pranks in football history.
We chat to Liam about those moments and more from being the announcer at his beloved hometown club. There's the one about his favourite manager's disco dancing, the one about taking on his opposite number from Man Utd and the one about stopping the players walking out the tunnel at the wrong moment.
Plus we look ahead to George Sephton of Liverpool talking to us in episode 10.
Music: District Four - Kevin McCleod.

LIVERPOOL - The rollercoaster of 2020 after 50 years on the mic - George Sephton PART 1
For the final episode of season 1, Rich Hurst of West Bromwich Albion and Alan Keegan from Manchester United speak to George Sephton of Liverpool, who's now in his 50th season as stadium announcer.
There are stories galore, from a man who's seen and heard it all, and had the ultimate compliment from Jurgen Klopp. He was there the last time Liverpool won the league and talks about how very different a lot of things are now, not just because of Covid.
His voice is unmistakable, even if he does have to remind the odd new face on the Anfield security staff by spontaneously saying 'there will be two minutes added time' to get past.
