Most Scousers are friendly towards outsiders, but if anyone starts 'playing-up' they will get a good hiding.
The fact is that most people are only this 'brave' towards Scousers when they are at a good distance. Partly due to their own propaganda in thinking all Scousers are up for a fight and partly because they've given it 'the big one' to Scousers before and got stung...badly!
@badacid : You have forgot to add that they are all 7ft 6ins tall, every single one of their dads was world heavyweight champion and they all have 4% body fat and weighing in at 25 stone of muscle.
@carloswigan And scousers are not only the hardest people on the planet but are the hardest species in the animal kingdom - put your money on a scouser giving a lion, a hippo or a polar bear a good hiding la.
I've met Allan a few times and he was fine - the hating scousers was an ACT. Also he hated Mars Bars - even though listeners sent in thousands, it was to stop the listeners sending in valauable gifts - which some of them did.
The parish was the birthplace of the Newton Heath Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway Football Club which was established in 1878 and later become the world famous Manchester United. It began life as a football team formed by Frederick Attock, a Liverpudlian who was a superintendent engineer of the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway(L&YR).
He was on Radio 5 the other month slagging off Scousers. I don't think his alleged dislike of Liverpudlians was just an act, although I remember him in the 80's saying he admired their sense of humour. I'd probably have got better exam results if I hadn't spent 4 hours a night listening to this tripe.
I always wound him up, by using some story or asking for advice and dropping in something totally puerile at the end of the 'conversation'..like 'dirty anal hairs' and he would hit the roof.
95% of my calls were just daft.on a few occasions i'd play radio 1 jingles to him.talked about gardening then told him i found a great big heap of shit.went on as David and played red rose dj david legge down the phone to him.went on as bruno and played bruno brookes to him.i still got 30+ compilation cassettes i made of all the dafter calls.the stupid phone callers are what made the show so popular.
I seem to remember. We approached it form the angle of being pathetic as possible and it seemed to work everytime.
We had a show down with him in a cafe in Blackburn..we didn't know what he looked like and I was spouting on about it, when he was sat on another table just behind us.
Don't you mean HOW DOO ...you mesn ! Anyway,I booked a taxi to tek me from Red Rurse radio to Bradshaws....it arrived bang on time. I asked the driver to wait, I would come out when I was was ready. When I came out the taxi wasn't there. They're crap. But don't worry, I won't be using them again and I've taken their number off the Red Rurse Radio list, cuz we haven't got time to wait for crap........
I used to listen to this fella regularly, when I lived in Southport. It was fantastic radio. Thanks for posting.

Beswick is a patronizing big headed, name dropping, champagne Socialist, narrow minded twat. But hey, that's just my point of view.

@badacid Not sure whether you're defending 'Scousers' or doing them a disservice with that comment....

Man United were founded by a scouser ha ha

allan was fantastic.
i phoned him over 160 times during his late night phone in between 85 and 87.
i was one of the (un)lucky ones to have his phone number read out on air.
