Liverpool 2 Burnley 1: Home And Away

I WAKE up in Brixton. I was meant to be there, like. This isn’t another lost weekend that has involved me waking up 200 miles away with no money, phone or memory. I’m just staying with a mate. Saturday I’m in Essex. I have a family memorial service...

Liverpool 3 Arsenal 1: Home And Away

ONE of these days this article won’t start with the morning after the night before. This is not one of those occasions. Although, to be fair, I don’t actually feel hungover — which is entirely because I’m still drunk. It’s around 10am and...

Leicester City 3 Liverpool 1: Home And Away

I HAVE sort of given myself Monday off. In the way that I’m still recording The Coach Home and I’m still getting a million emails and WhatsApp messages to do with work. But its relatively lazy and relaxed. For now. The reason for this is that I have guests...

Liverpool 2 Tottenham Hotspur 0: Home And Away

I woke up at 7.50am on Saturday. Annoying that, isn’t it? You moan about getting up early all week for work and then you wake up on a Saturday at the same time anyway. Now I know what you might be thinking. “7.50am isn’t early, I’m up at 6am...

Hull City 2 Liverpool 0: Home And Away

I GOT accidentally drunk on Friday. We’ve all been there. After a couple at AFQ we were going to an event at Bluecoat Chambers for their 300th birthday. That’s quite impressive, isn’t it? A building knocking about in town that’s older than The...

Liverpool 1 Chelsea 1: Home And Away

WE all have to get up and go to work. Later we will go to Anfield for the fourth time 11 days hoping for much, much better. But for now we have to pretend to be normal human beings. With jobs and to-do lists and all that. I get through a surprising amount of mine....

Liverpool 1 Wolves 2: Home And Away

SURELY we have to beat Wolves. Surely. My dad says he is picking me up “between 10:45 and 11″. Which is a tricky one. For my mates this would be 11:15. But my dad is more punctual. He predictably arrives at 10:46. I’m predictably wearing a towel. A...

Liverpool 0 Southampton 1: Home And Away

(SORRY it’s late) I tell people I have had a season ticket for Liverpool since I was 10. It isn’t strictly true. When they opened the upper tier of the newly named Centenary Stand in 1992 my dad bought two tickets for the family to share. I think that was...

Liverpool 2 Swansea City 3: Home And Away

HERE are some funny things that happened on Saturday: 1) I’d been quite sensible on Friday night. I went to a brilliant gig, with Dream Wife being supported by Her’s and Haarm, but was tucked up in bed by 12am. It’s still a rush for a 12.30pm...

Plymouth Argyle 0 Liverpool 1: Home And Away

I’D warmed up for Plymouth by doing a mixture of watching and listening to Lincoln v Ipswich the night before. Great, wasn’t it? Full house, good footy, great ending. A journeyman striker, who was paid for by a crowdfunding scheme, becomes a hero. The BBC...
