WHAT is momentum? Well, I know what it means in definitive terms. “The quantity of motion of a moving body, measured as a product of its mass and velocity.” Yet in its social format its scope is much broader. Momentum can be a call to arms, the start of an ethical...
THERE are some things you should never look back on. This is a mantra I have embedded as a coping mechanism when it comes to football. There are things I have witnessed in stadiums that I point-blank refuse to watch on a screen in acknowledgement of their gravitas....
HISTORY will define Liverpool’s 2-0 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers as one of gallant accomplishment which just fell short of the stratospheric bar set. Anfield will also be remembered for being emotive, defiant and ever so slightly melancholic as it gave...
MAYBE there are lessons. Maybe we will be forever young. Maybe, the hope for the future lies in the eyes of our youth. Effervescence: in Anfield on Tuesday night while nursing a frenetic three-goal advantage against a body which claims to be more than a club, I was...
THE hope doesn’t kill you. It is the sense of entitlement in every single football fan which makes you feel so vehemently wronged and ultimately makes you wonder for a split second if it is all worth it. It is. Liverpool’s season is on a knife edge, this is nothing...
IT happened for the first time on Wednesday night. Not Manchester United being predictably devoid of the physical or mental sturdiness to compete at the levels they once set. Not Manchester City showing a glimmer of their fragility before becoming an overpowering...
OH, how far we’ve come. As this season evolves, I find myself often referencing how far we’ve come in these pieces of writing. Thinking back to Gerard Houllier’s cup-conquering machine of 2000-01, and to last season’s rollercoaster of a side. It feels as though this...
OF course it still hurts. It still makes you drop your head and shrug in a way that only heartbreak can. I still want to put my arms around Steven Gerrard and hide him from the lenses in the way he had to for his crestfallen teammate days later. Liverpool 0 Chelsea 2...
“FUCKING hell mate, your full backs are good.” A text message sent to me from my Spurs-supporting friend at full time last Sunday. I initially took it as a general pleasantry, until I put myself in his depleted shoes following a torrid last-minute defeat. What had he...
MIGNOLET, Clyne, Skrtel, Sakho, Moreno, Leiva, Can, Milner, Lallana, Coutinho, Origi. As Liverpool ready themselves for a mammoth fixture in the title race against Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield this Sunday, a look at Jürgen Klopp’s team selection in his first game as...
With Yan Diomande seemingly set for a switch to PSG with Liverpool failing in their pursuit of the Ivorian where will the Reds look next to strengthen their right hand side?
To go through the alternatives, their strengths and weakness and what might happen are Neil Atkinson, John Gibbons, Kev Reilly and Kieran Molyneux.
Also in the show, John Gibbons is joined by Georgina Hannaway and John McDonough to talk about Claire House Children’s Hospice, the work they do and also about John’s upcoming fundraiser for the hospice.
