Tommy Lawrence is a former professional footballer who was goalkeeper for Liverpool and Tranmere Rovers in the 1950’s through to the 1970’s and Bill Shankly’s first choice goalkeepeer.
The BBC have been doing some interviews of random people on the streets asking them of their memories of derbies past in preparation for tomorrow’s Merseyside Derby.
The reporter asked an old man on the street for his memories of the 1967 Derby only to discover that he was interviewing the man who had been goalie in that game- Tommy Lawrence himself.
How cool is that ?
