IS there a danger, however small, that we may be becoming spoiled watching this incessant winning machine week in, week out? It was a question some dared to air over a post-match pint on Saturday afternoon. In Sheffield, the travelling support from Liverpool wasn’t at...

IT’S good to have it all back. Good to be in the midst of it all once again. After the ever-shorter post-season breather, last Friday, a familiar pilgrimage was made. To Anfield. To Liverpool FC. The pub was full of smiles. The Kop was full of flags. And just before...
