 " I was rather taken aback when the doctor entered the Anfield boot room " , Wark said . " He was small in stature and I could not help but detect the smell of alcohol on his breath as he introduced himself to me . I was even more surprised when he announced we would stay put to conduct the medical examination . " He took my blood pressure , looked at the reading and muttered ' that 's fine ' . Then something happened that to this day I still cannot get over . He asked me to bend down and touch my toes . " Trying not to show my surprise , I did exactly as he asked and as I lifted my head he spoke again , this time to announce ' you 've passed ' . That was it , my Liverpool medical . "
