‘I think that was my best moment as a football supporter’
As part of a series looking at some of the most significant moments in City of Liverpool FC history, James Nalton is joined by Michael Meadows to look back on the 2018/19 season when the club won the North West Counties Premier Division in dramatic fashion

CITY of Liverpool FC announced this week that they have re-signed striker Craig Cairns, a player who was integral to their 2018/19 title win, scoring 28 of the club’s 89 goals in that memorable campaign.

Purps boss Craig Robinson picked up the Premier Division Manager of the Year award that season, too, and the pair will be working together again as part of the club’s push for further honours.

“It was an easy decision to come back to the Purps and when I spoke to Robbo it was all done and dusted in five minutes,” said Cairns.
