Jamie Carragher given subtitles in Being: Liverpool documentary

Spanish accents are easy to understand and Brazilian is a walk in the park - but when it comes to Scousers our American friends have no idea what's going on after Jamie Carragher had to be subtitled for TV documentary Being: Liverpool.

The new documentary has been offering British and American viewers a behind-the-scenes insight into life at Anfield.

But those in the USA struggling with the Scouse accent are now being given a helping hand, with the producers adding subtitles when Liverpool-born Jamie Carragher speaks.

Producers feared the American audience would not understand the defender's thick accent - despite the likes of Spaniard Pepe Reina and Brazilian Lucas Leiva speaking without the added visual aid.

A spokesman for Channel 5, which broadcasts the show in the UK, said: 'The subtitles will be left in because we broadcast the show in the same format as in the US.'

The programme has been criticised by Liverpool legend Mark Lawrenson, who said other clubs 'must be having a right old laugh' at their expense.
''Dey do dough, don't dey dough''!






La.
 
Looks like they are applying compulsory purchase orders on the houses around Anfield, so the redevelopment can begin.
 
I've just seen the envelope incident, what was he thinking?

'Being Liverpool' is possibly the most cringe worthy programme ever broadcast on British tv

Haha, to be fair, I understand this... Being non-british I could easily understand any spaniard or some other non-british talking broken English but Carragher, Ferguson, Dalglish or Lambert is hard job to do.. it's like they're talking to themselves, I barely recognize one word in 10 words sentence they say.
 
I am British born and I hardly can understand what they are saying either so don't worry about it :0)
 
Re: Etihad Campus & potential new stadium

Not City related, but.....

Liverpool expanding Anfield to 60K. <a class="postlink" href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19935925" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19935925</a>
 
Re: Etihad Campus & potential new stadium

This part says it all

"A planning application is not expected to be submitted until next summer and little information has yet been revealed on the exact details of the project."

It's Liverpool doing what they do best!
