This podcast is part of the Sports Social Podcast Network.

It is the Anfield Appellie Atkins from with Garith Robert, Ian Ryan and Amelia Bonner to talk about the Community Shield.

John Gibbons will be joining us because he spoke to Alan Wears of Albion

ground and what that was like logistically and in terms of how it felt and then we
