With Johnston having written the 1988 FA Cup Final song The Anfield Rap, it was only a matter of time before 'Skippy' teamed up with The Anfield Wrap regulars.

And what better time than the night before the historic clash between Liverpool and Melbourne Victory.

He will be at the HIlton on the Park on July 23 for the unique TAW show along with Fox Sports’ Dan Garb, The Times’ Football Editor Tony Evans and regulars from the award-winning podcast and radio show.

The show also features sets from The Tea Street Band and Silent Sleep.

Johnston made 271 appearances for Liverpool between 1981 and 1988 and led the way for Australians joining the English top flight in the modern era.

“It promises to be a great night and I’m proud to be a part of it," he said today.

"The fans in Melbourne are every bit as Liverpool-mad and passionate as those from anywhere else in the world and it will be a pleasure to talk football with them on what is home territory for me.

“It’s really something special that Liverpool are coming to Australia and this show will be a great precursor to the main event. I’m looking forward to having a lot of fun.”

TAW co-founder Andy Heaton added: “We’re really looking forward to this and we’re absolutely delighted to have Craig on board.

"He’s always been no-nonsense and good value in interviews and we’re looking forward to more of the same on the night.”
