Born in Fife in 1922, Billy made the move from Scotland to Liverpool at 16, but the Second World War delayed his debut. After serving in the RAF as a navigator, he returned to football and won the league with Liverpool in his first full season with the club after the war. A diehard Red, Billy spent his whole career with the club, scoring 228 times in 534 appearances between 1938 and 1961. He remains the oldest goalscorer in Liverpool’s history and their fourth-highest scorer of all time. Liddell spent a decade playing for Scotland and has the honour – alongside Stanley Matthews – of being one of only two men to represent a Great Britain XI more than once. A true sportsman and consummate professional, he was never booked or sent off in his entire footballing career. Liddell at One Hundred brings you the inside story of his life from those who knew him best – friends, supporters, family members and former team-mates.

  • THE SOUTHPORT STORY by Michael Braham
    A COMPLETE HISTORY OF SOUTHPORT FOOTBALL CLUB Compiled By Rob Urwin Southport FC Programme Editor 1 IN THE BEGINNING It was Thursday 12th November 1881 when Southport played its first Association Football match. Although association football had been played in the town's private schools in the late 1870’s the original Southport Football club began as a rugby team. The 'handling code” had been played competitively since 1872 in Southport and there were teams under the titles of Southport Olympic, Southport Wasps, Southport Hornets and The Grasshoppers. Southport Football Club, who had been in existence for some seasons, arranged rugby fixtures for 1881-82. After some heavy defeats, the last recorded being on 15th October when Wavertree prevailed, the club switched to association football. On 12th November, six of that team lined up when Southport played Bootle “second” in their first match under Association Rules. Bootle took the lead but Jackson shot “a capital goal to equalise” The Southport team was S Platt (Goal), B Pidduck, JG Howard (Backs) P.Edwards, F Jackson and TB Burnett(Captain) (Halves), JR Topliss and F Holden (Rights) W Platt (Centre) J Melross and J. Sykes (Lefts). The Southport Visiter commented “that the team will no doubt render a good account of themselves when they get over the difficulty of hands off and forget the rugby rules” The following week Southport lost by “one goal and one disputed goal to nil” at Burscough. Most of the club’s rugby players made the switch to the “round ball game” and Dalby, Irving and Morris were also lured over to soccer from Southport Hornets.

  • Institutional Change in an Age of Internationalization: Globalization and the Soccer Club
    Institutional Change in an Age of Internationalization: Globalization and the Soccer Club A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Political Science of the College of Arts and Sciences by Tiest M. Sondaal B.A., International Affairs, Xavier University M.A., Political Science, University of Cincinnati October 2011 Committee Chair: Richard J. Harknett, Ph.D ABSTRACT This dissertation contributes to the growing literature about globalization’s impact on local institutions with a focus on the interaction between global and local forces. Specifically, the dissertation examines the two theories of glocalization and grobalization that offer contrasting explanations about the impact of globalization on local institutions. While the theory of glocalization stresses the interpenetration of the global and the local resulting in increasing hybridization, grobalization predicts that globalization overwhelms local institutions resulting in increasing homogeneity. The research reveals that while both theories tested capture to some degree institutional dynamics, they ultimately overlook the enduring power of the local. Put differently, the study finds that globalization’s effects are not pre-determined and impact local institutions differently based on the local-societal setting and the local institutional capacity to withstand unifying pressures. As a corrective, my study introduces a third conceptual frame for understanding the global-local relationship that I term ‘localism anew’, which holds that local entities can be the driving force in transforming globalization by leveraging the local in order to succeed globally – something which grobalization cannot conceive and which glocalization overlooks.
