1 minute discussing the last match, 59 minutes discussing beans on a fry up. 

Would be more enjoyable than The Anfield Wrap.

Who were the forumites who got invited to LFCTV? Woo, Steve H & a couple more.

 

Woo looked incredibly awkward throughout the whole thing.

Stu Monty who went on wearing a political T-shirt and they made him cover it up.

Imagine a TLW podcast it'd just be full of in-jokes that nobody outside of the forum would understand.

Where do I sign up?

I'm not aware of anyone else, but I don't know most of their backgrounds. I think Neil Atkinson was off yawn. Aside from that, I don't know of any of their online personas.

He was called Keyser Soze before that. There was another guy who wrote for them and his name now escapes me, think he had a fairly generic handle with 'red' in it.

There was a long term poster on here that left to set up a new site but it wasn’t UEM. 
 

He was a big defender of Rafa during the ART wars.

That sounds familiar. 
 

 

Something beginning with ‘S’ red? 

[Harry Squatter]

If they asked me to go on I'd ask them to host it in a rougharse pub and take the piss out of Evertonians.

Thought he was at the beginning, may well be wrong though.

I thought he was on RAWK. Could be wrong.

 

At least Paul Tomkins seems to have disappeared these days. My mate used have so right pops at him on RAWK.

His relentless positivity is no longer needed but when we go back to being shit at some point, he'll be back.

The Wrap was decent back in the day where they had a small core set of contributors. Since they expanded it to now doing 20 shows a week, they've had to incorporate a lot more voices and, as such, the quality has significantly waned because the original contributors rarely do a show together anymore. 

 

Anybody know what the story with Mike Nevin was? He seemed to be dropped quite unceremoniously from the Wrap...

For me the thing is no matter what type of fan you are (or think you are) TAW probably have someone like you on there, like them or not, there'll be Lizzie Doyle's and Gareth Roberts listening to the show. I agree they probably need to be a bit suckholey to the club to get some of the exclusives they get, but they normally only get them related to some shite that's being promoted indirectly. But I do think at times they've been willing to speak out on behalf of fans or get the right people on to do it. They certainly did around all that copyrighting nonsense the club were doing a little while back on one of their other money grabbing exercises. I don't remember their response to furlough, but I think they do speak up on fan issues and there's been fuck all to moan about on the pitch really. 

Fair points. I think you are right they did speak up on a few things but quite mildly compared to their pre subscription days.

 

I mean I get it, you have a relationship with the Club and you don't want to break it to keep the subs rolling in. What annoyed me was I think that Doyle did a video on the day of the West Ham match last year where she was basically laughing off how crap the opposition where, how amazing we were and how the team would cope with sticking players  out of position. There was no insight or talk about how the match would go, it was something akin to asking a bird in the street what the result would be. We then went and drew 1-1.

Ive known Andy Heaton for years, he's a decent lad all round. Don't know any of the others.

Probably because he could be seen as quite negative. He was never afraid to voice his opinion. I enjoyed his take :D

They should get you on there mate. You'd get it taken off air. Win-Win.
