Brimming with big names, big occasions and compelling storylines, Anfield South explores Liverpool's special connection with Wembley Stadium.

Written by former broadcasting and sports executive Brian Barwick OBE, who, as chief executive of the FA, opened the new Wembley Stadium in 2007.

Since their first appearance at Wembley for the 1950 FA Cup Final, Liverpool FC has played there nearly 50 times, leading fans to affectionately nickname the national stadium 'Anfield South'. This captivating book highlights various aspects of Liverpool's unique relationship with Wembley Stadium and its many matches played there, including:

• Fascinating stories – from the pitch, dressing rooms, and terraces, to the 'football specials' on motorways and railways
• The historic day in 1965 when Liverpool finally broke their FA Cup curse and lifted the famous trophy, under Bill Shankly's leadership
• A look into the 1970s when Liverpool participated in three more FA Cup finals at the national stadium
• The succession from Shankly's Liverpool to Bob Paisley's Liverpool – and how the quietly spoken manager led the team to Wembley season after season, including winning the European Cup there
• The 1990s FA Cup Final when Liverpool players' white Wembley kits (actually cream!) became a major topic of discussion and the legendary 'Spice Boys' nickname was born
• Moving into the 21st century and a new stadium, with more Wembley moments facilitated by charismatic German manager Jürgen Klopp

As a lifelong Liverpool supporter who has attended most of the Reds' matches at Wembley, the author understands that every trip to the national stadium is a unique story. Each journey has a tale, every match a memory – every goal is priceless. Anfield South captures this distinctive relationship.
