John Aldridge on his incredible rise from amateur football in Liverpool

John Aldridge recalls his first visit to Anfield and how he fell in love with Liverpool Football Club as a young boy growing up on Merseyside. 'Aldo' also talks about his days playing around the amateur scene in Liverpool in the 70s before signing for South Liverpool in 1978, a move that would eventually lead to him being one of the top strikers in European football.

The former Ireland international was speaking to Tommy Martin for our Sports Stories: John Aldridge episode.
