MARILYN Monroe once said: “Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it’s better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.” I’m not sure if she employed second sight and an interest in the 2015-16 league season, but her words do seem to...
IN April 2013, the day after Luis Suarez’s bite on Branislav Ivanovic, I wrote a piece on The Anfield Wrap called ‘The Weekend’s Lowest Point’. The basic gist was that I was angry at Manchester United quietly winning another league title while Liverpool once again...
