It is the Anfield rap, I'm Neil Atkinson and with me I've got John Gibbons and two members of the

Camar Rouge, one for the teenagers there.

I'm never as it seemed more appropriate than today to have the pair of them

we're going to build their arguments upon that it should be you know voided in the interest of fair play and one thing

and the other so to just clear through all them or all them arguments
