AS The Kop poured into the streets with leaden shoulders and a collective stooped gait, a lone voice roared above the hubbub. ‘Libpool, Libpool – top of the league. Libpool – top of the league.’ It was an act of defiance. It spoke of a heart...
I’M not sure when this started but as the weeks have rolled on I’m relying less on tricky language, pleasing similes and passionate ravings. No. I’ve dropped from the polysyllabic to the monosyllabic to mere grunting in different keys. Iv-a-pool....
I’VE gone. I’m a broken man. I wasn’t nervous before West Ham. I honestly wasn’t. In my head I’ve allocated different percentages of nerves to different games and I had West Ham at 10% panic. No (or little) sweat. Yes, there’s the Carroll...
SUNDAY’S 4-0 drubbing of Spurs made it 9-0 on aggregate for the season and sent the Reds back to the top of the table with the title in their own hands – but it’s not the first time Tottenham have been on the wrong side of a thrashing from Liverpool....

TO be honest, I still haven’t got over Stoke away. Stoke was the season. It was 0-0s and defeats only prior to the current insanity. Stoke is Jon Walters, long throw-ins, getting smacked all over the park, always cold and that nervous walk back to the car across...
THE latest application from the South Yorkshire Police to receive public funds to meet legal costs of the new Hillsborough inquest has been met with disdain amongst Liverpool fans. The families themselves received no such monies during their long fight for justice so...
This has been an extraordinary season. Logic and order have taken a back seat as we’ve rode the steepest of roller coasters. A flying start, a rival bested early on, the routine hammering of the dross, two narrow defeats against title contenders and the utter...
