Liverpool FC Programmes vs Accrington Stanley FAC 24/25 Retour à l'édition précédente

Ian Rush and Accrington Stanley will always be linked by a famous 1980s milk advert – and there is a nod to that on the cover of the official Liverpool FC matchday programme for Saturday’s Emirates FA Cup third-round clash.

Ahead of the first senior meeting of the sides since 1956, the Reds’ record goalscorer talks about that commercial and how he really did like a glass of the white stuff before games!

Does he also discuss being on either side of FA Cup giant-killings, why scoring in the final was always his main ambition, and give his half-term report on the season? Exactly!

Elsewhere in the issue, Jayden Danns talks about walking out with his father as a mascot for an FA Cup tie a decade ago, scoring twice in front of the Kop in last season’s fifth-round tie against Southampton, and more.

We also have the pre-match thoughts of head coach Arne Slot in his exclusive column, alongside those of captain Virgil van Dijk, bring you the latest from the club’s women’s team, and hear from Reds fan and Starsailor front man James Walsh.

There’s a round-up of the latest match action, a quiz to test your knowledge of Liverpool in the FA Cup third round, and some teasers for younger supporters in Mighty Red’s puzzle page.

Plus, we put the focus on Ian St John’s match-winning jersey from Liverpool’s first FA Cup triumph in 1965, explain why the Reds wore gold shirts on the only previous occasion they met Accrington, and also look back on the two 1980s FA Cup final victories over Everton.
