Scouser Tommy Tynan became a Plymouth legend during his career, and now the cabbie is hoping it's taxi time for Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp

A Plymouth Argyle supporter shields his young son from the icy wind lashing Home Park and explains about Tommy Tynan.

The father recounts stories of a blond striker, tough and industrious, a lower-league goal machine who scored the winner at West Bromwich Albion in the season when Argyle made it into the FA Cup semi-finals.

The boy nods and waits for an introduction as more fans notice the 61-year-old posing for photographs and linger.

Tynan may have been banging in goals for Plymouth’s veterans team until recently but he confirms the obvious: there’s no chance of him pulling on his boots against Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool side for this week’s FA Cup third round replay.
