Robbie plus Jason McAteer and Dietmar Hamann were all on hand to surprise Liverpool fans who were trying to win a complete football experience. The prize being offered by Carlsberg is a VIP trip to Anfield (pic below) for Liverpool’s last home game of the season against Newcastle.

Not only that, but giving Irish football fans the once in a lifetime opportunity to play on Liverpool FC’s hallowed Anfield turf with their mates. The day after the Newcastle match the lucky winners get to play at Anfield with a host of Liverpool legends.
