    Thanks for sharing, John.
    It was easier for me to look at the Old Trafford photos than the ones from across the park, for obvious reasons!
    Roll on Bramley-Moore stadium, on the banks of the royal blue Mersey...….still a couple of years off though.

    I saw England play at Old Trafford a few years ago - that stadium is huge and very impressive.
    I have never been to Anfield and I doubt I would ever set foot in there.
    I was born in Liverpool......

    Me too in Mill Road Hospital Grandparents lived on the outskirts of Norris Green
    Have to say Goodison was a huge disappointment when we went across to see it(same day as Anfield)

    And...

    I have a “million” shots located in about 4 or 5 different places and I have been looking through to find a couple of nice shots of the Mrs and the little one sitting in the players dugouts. Still looking but will be going out soon so it will have to wait. Over time the number of devices used to take and store photos has evolved making the location of some a challenge.

    I was just looking at Mess’s Ballon D’Or photos we took, hidden away in our archives.

    I took a decision a few years ago not to post pictures of myself on forums or refer to persons I know by their actual names or release the name of my employer as it probably is not a wise thing to do, unfortunately. There are observable examples where doing so have proven to be counterproductive to say the least. That also includes telephone numbers and home address. It is a shame to have to do that.

    Besides I am not so photogenic these days :D

    (My wife doesn’t like me putting pictures of our daughter on here).

    When I get a chance I will dig out a few more pics..that is if you are genuinely interested. I have just located some from our visit to the Nou Camp. So will post later. And then have a hunt for the others.

    Yes, the grand old lady is showing her rather worn-out bloomers these days.
    Goodison Park was so modern back in the sixties, you probably remember some World Cup games were held there in 1966.
    Evertonians await the next step at Bramley-Moore dock.
    It will not be as grand as Old Trafford but it should make Evertonians happy.

    A photo of you, your wife and the kids would be ok! You're not ashamed of how you look are you? ;)

    You weren't quite so coy in one of your previous incarnations, were you, indeed one of your avatars was of the three of you ....

    Just seen Mexico go one up against Germany.

    Here is my wife with the little one outside the ground. About 3 years ago.

    I didn’t really get a chance to say earlier but if you follow line of sight over your partner’s head and follow that for a mile or two then I used to live there. I watched the stadium evolve as I moved there in 1985.

    I like the painting of Klopp and Shankly.

    That last game I saw Utd play, it was against Sunderland was an easy win for Utd. I think it was 2-0 and December 2010. Again I was very impressed with Ferdinand. Saw him warming up just before kick off from close quarters in the lower stands. For a centreback he showed great skills.

    What surprised me was how close the Merseyside grounds are. I hadn’t realised they were that close, not being familiar with the area.

    Great result for Me-ki-ko and for all their people back home in the Americas.
    I suppose most of us were counting the seconds also.

    Could have been even closer as Liverpool were thinking of building their new stadium in Stanley Park, which thankfully didn't materialize.

    Hmmm I recall you being none to happy when another member posted your picture either.

    If a member here wants to remain anonymous then that is there perogative.

    I'd be absolutely astonished if your assertion is true for the simple reason that neither I nor anyone else to my certain knowledge has uploaded a picture of me anywhere. I was none too happy when Keith posted my real name - which is what you may have had in mind.

    Strange that the gentleman concerned hasn't tackled me on the point just as he didn't when I addressed him with one of his previous aliases on here, shortly after he (re)joined. Obviously he's not that protective of his identity.

    Peace brothers Peace

    Got to say Southgate looked really relaxed in his latest press interview.
    The stadiums look good on the box, we had a lovely walk on the beach today so everything is tickety boo

    I am still digging out pictures. They are all over the place. I have found one of the Mrs posing next to DeGea. :D And of her with the Premier League trophy and Charity Shield. I cannot find the Nou Camp photos right now.
