LAST weekend, just days after the high of the derby, Liverpool sold our best player and, not unnaturally, people are concerned about how we replace him — be it in the next few weeks or in the summer. There’s always a sadness when moments like this come. When...
A Happy New Year to you all. A new year is a time for renewal, of reflection. It gives us an opportunity to draw a line in the sand and announce that from now on we will either stop doing foolish things (over-drinking, over-eating, binge-watching Netflix instead of...
