This is the Ali La Rouge Podcast on the Blood Red channel, bringing you the view from the

terraces at Liverpool FC. Welcome to another edition of Ali Louge and we are back rearing to go after our close

season break. We've got regular guests, Steph Jones, Keith Colvin and Stephen Monaghan, and this will be a fun-packed episode coming

live from Concert Square.

Not really, we're all on Zoom. So what's it being like in the close season? I mean we all

needed a bit of a break after Paris didn't me step you know but I think now... yeah I think now we're all ready to go, aren't we?

Yeah, I mean, obviously Paris was, I think the overwhelming feeling after Paris was shock and sort of feeling kind of powerless but knowing that we had to you know move on and get things started in you know a defense.

Yeah. in, you know, a defense.

I haven't actually given the game a second thought.

No, I don't think anyone else, isn't it?

And, you know, kind of, it's almost like it didn't happen it's like the

actual game didn't take place but it also seems a long time ago now yeah and

this has been like it's been a much, it's only two weeks, I think we're starting

the season earlier than normal, aren't we?

But it does seem like it's been a short break.

But yeah, as the days have come by getting excited now. Yeah Keith I mean we think we all needed that

break didn't we but I mean is your your appetite back is it? Yeah definitely you know the Paris game obviously as

Steph said you know what I mean it was something you'd never thought you'd

see again to be honest you and obviously I think it took everyone by

surprised the way it all planned out and and the aftermath was you know even

wasting some respect to one because of the way it decided they can once again

blame the fans and just that and you're there and that sort of took a while to settle down didn't it?
