Advantages: Funny tour guide, great experience

Disadvantages: None

I went on the stadium tour around anfield, about two years ago, you start the tour outside of the stadium where the team buses enter the stadium, this was very good and the tour guide was telling us about when Alex Ferguson was egged by the Liverpool fans so it is now guarded off from fans, we were lucky to see Xabi Alonso leaving the stadium because he was coming in for a few tests on his leg, he waved to the fans and drove off in his mini.
Once entering the stadium the tour guide took us into the changing rooms of both the home and away teams, liverpools home changing room was alot more luxury compared to the away but was still not as modern as you may expect, it was mainly just coat hangers with benches below, there was also a shower and bath area for the players and a drawing board for the manager himself.
The tour guide then showed us where the players and managers are interviewed for MOTD and sky sports etc in the pre and post match. We were then able to touch the 'This is Anfield' sign before we entered the pitch side, here we were able to sit in the dugouts over the turf of Anfield. We then went into the Kop end to see the view from there which was very good.
After the tour of inside the stadium the tour guide took us into the museum where we were free to roam round, the museum included loads of differend memorabilia from John Arne Riise's champions league shirt to Biddy Liddels boots, you also get the chance to see the latest addition to the trophy cabinet the FA cup from the win against West Ham in 2006. The champions league/European trophies are all available to view and are lined up together.
A very good afternoon for fantasic value for money.

Summary: A great day out for any football fan
