LIVERPOOL fans in and around Dublin are invited to join Sky Sports’ Spanish football expert Guillem Balague and Tony Evans, Football Editor of The Times, for a very special version of the award-winning Anfield Wrap radio show.
Guillem and Tony will join regulars from the popular football show to discuss the latest happenings at Anfield and of course Spanish football and take questions in an audience-only special from The Royal Hotel and Merrill Leisure Club in Bray.
Guillem will also be talking about his new book, Pep Guardiola’s biography, Another Way of Winning.
The night, on Saturday, February 16, 2013, will also feature a set from Liverpool-based rock and roll dance combo The Tea Street Band and a DJ will see out the night.
Ticket are priced €10 and will be available from See Tickets: www.seetickets.com
All profits from the evening will go to the Hillsborough Justice Campaign.
The Anfield Wrap was launched in August 2011 by a group of fans and has since gone on to become the most-popular Liverpool FC podcast, downloaded by around 30,000 supporters every week with total figures now fast closing in on two million.
It was crowned the Football Supporters’ Federation Podcast of the Year and is now also a weekly show on Liverpool-based radio station City Talk 105.9.
Co-founder Andy Heaton said: “The show and the website have always been well-supported by Liverpool fans throughout Ireland and this is a great opportunity to bring The Anfield Wrap to a fantastic city. We can’t wait.”
Guillem Balague said: “Irish fans’ passion for football, and in particular Liverpool and Spanish football, is second to none and it will be a real pleasure to be a part of the show.”
And Tony Evans added: “Liverpool and Dublin and Scousers and the Irish go back a long way. It promises to be a great night and a brilliant opportunity to raise money for a very worthy cause.”
Bray is in Co Wicklow and not Dublin. Like saying Anfield is in Manchester. Will be there anyway though!
Jaysus lads,
Whoever your go-to guy in Ireland was when you were arranging this needs to be shot.
Probably changed the Dublin part to Leinster on the adverts.
Joe
Ah lads its well outside dublin but sure we’ll be there with bells on!
Only on a map commissioned by Ryanair could Bray be classified as being in Dublin.
I’ve bought my tickets but lads, you really should consider a change of venue.
Bray is 40 minutes from Dublin City Centre.
Fantastic your coming to Ireland lads but wee word of advice; Bray is not in Dublin, in fact its not even in County Dublin, its in County Wicklow and youre gonna alienate a hell of a lot of people if you keep saying Dublin. Really hoping to get to see yas that night though.
Lovely stuff! Even though Bray is in Wicklow (as the lads above have said), it’s dead handy to get to!
Also, it’s for a fantastic cause.
Better put me cans for the Dart in the fridge!
fuckin hell lads why not do one in Liverpool?
just thought I’d join in moaning.. fuck me Ireland least your getting to see them!!
pipe the fuck down.
Tickets bought, hotel in bray booked, this could be such a big night that I am starting to know what it must feel like to live a day in Ian McGarry’s life.
In a previous life McGarry was in Trumpton along Pugh Pugh and Barney Mcgrew.
He was PC McGarry no. 452
He always was that famous
I’ve moved to bloody Oz, fec I’d love to hear the show live.
You should do “Being Anfield Wrap in Bray”. Video the best bits and sell it after the fact for a few of quid, I’d be up for that. Or even a podcast just a thought.
Love the podcasts
Bray is hardly the fuckin’ moon. Even the dimmest of dickheads would be hard pressed to get lost on a journey down from Dublin. Forty minutes on the DART from Tara Street and you are alighting from a utilitarian green carriage onto the platform at Daly Station, a mere 21 kilometers distant from the center of doorty ole Dublin. Yeah, it’s in Wicklow, like Ormskirk’s in Lancashire, Warrington’s in Cheshire, Bootle’s in Sefton; like, like get on the fuckin’ train, speak in a loud voice about how you’re goin’ to hear a loud of Scousers talking bollocks about their religion, and how you as Ireland’s premier LFC lovers are gonna have a mad one in the Royal Hotel showing these fuckers how to believe. How to make the poetry of soccer, recreational sportswear and rock ‘n’ roll, dance to a tune all your own and nobody fuckin’ elses.
Wait till TAW turns up and then quibble with this contingent of bemused experts on all things English working class, about how Bray is not in Dublin. Watch their faces not giving a fuck, nodding politely and disarming you with an accent so similar to your own you’ll start hearing Johnny Giles in the reverb and backwash of the verbal tapestry being woven by the sea in Wicklow. You cunts!!
The first thing that occurred to me was that Bray isn’t in Dublin too but bit of an over-reaction by some! Who cares! It’s extremely close to the border (some consider it Dublin- even though that’s wrong), hardly that relevant to this and nothing to get your knickers in a twist over!
Any idea what time this will be on at?
Need to decide whether to stay over or get the last DART home…
Is Nicky Allt’s play on at the venue? I got told this. Terry.
We’re driving 3 hours from Ennis first thing Saturday morning. No complaints. Delighted to be part of the first live Wrap tour and to help support a great charity in the process. The Tea Street Band will be the icing on the cake. Can’t beat a bit of a pilgrimage.
