Liverpool FC is one of English football's (soccer's) most respected–and sometimes hated–teams. Blood Red: The Liverpool FC Podcast is a combination of a news podcast and a celebration of the Premier League squad. Fans can hear veteran journalists discuss the team and its players. Those looking for game recaps, previews, and intelligent commentary can find it here.
There are three primary podcast hosts, although they occasionally rotate hosting duties. They are Ian Doyle, Paul Gorst, and Theo Squires. All three of them have been writing about the team for several years. Doyle is the senior Liverpool FC expert for the Liverpool Echo. He has been writing about the team at this publication for a decade. Doyle began his sports media career in 2000 at the Daily Post Wales. He has been reporting on Liverpool since 2006.
Gorst has been with the Echo for eight years but has been a sports writer for over a decade. He began working as a writer in 2010 with the Trinity Mirror Group PLC. Gorst has been writing about football full-time since 2012. Squires is the podcast's junior member and has been with the Echo for five years. He has been writing about football professionally since September 2011.
Liverpool fans may appreciate how comprehensive the reporting on this podcast is. Before each game, the hosts take an episode to offer predictions. Doyle, Gorst, and Squires also discuss player injuries, such as updates on Alexis Mac Allister's injury. The midfielder suffered a severe knee injury when another player's cleat went through the muscle and into the bone. Each match also receives a post-game recap. It is always interesting to hear how close the hosts were to their original predictions.
New episodes of Blood Red: The Liverpool FC Podcast air several times a week.
