This is just great

Tommy Lawrence gets an unexpected chance to relive his playing days

As you may imagine, there is a lot of interest in the Merseyside derby today and BBC sent a reporter from their North West Tonight programme to vox pop people on the streets of Liverpool about a 1967 FA Cup tie between the two sides.

And, by complete accident, the reporter runs into a man who not only remembers the game, he bloody played in it.

The reaction by former Liverpool keeper Tommy Lawrence here is great.
