I'm sorry, Unclued, but I cannot help you there, I'm afraid. I don't do/have the Listener crossword.
Good luck with it, anyway!

Leon - is there any pattern to the Anfield line? Also what about the other corrected misprints referred to?
Start at the P for KOP and look for a football related term / marking. Then look for the matching one down the other end and finally something else connected with a marking!

I'm still struggling with the bottom right-hand corner : I have : s**so* for 37a
**or* for 41a
p**se for 33d and
***st for 34d

Any hints welcome!

Barretter - here are some ideas for you.
37a Think of a small amount (3 letters) and then repeat
41a Unusual word starting with a Y!
33d Should get this now you have the Y
34d Misprint of TEN to make TEE. look up a musical instrument in Bradfords.
Hope that helps!

Thanks very much indeed for that, Unclued. I now have a complete grid but not much of an idea how to proceed any further. Perhaps something to do with field position at Kick-Off?

See what's after KO and that gives you the theme. Look for markings you would expect to find on this type of space!

Leon, thanks a lot. I think you're right. Those answers make sense. I'm not too bothered about the endgame as I never send entries in, It's just great to have a filled grid.

Leon I've got POSSE as well for 33Dn. Sorry if I confused you but it became POYSE after conversion in the end game. Similarly SCORE at 41Ac became YBORE.
