Martin Fitzgerald offers up his player ratings after Liverpool beat FC Midtjylland 2-0 in their second Champions League group game at Anfield… DID a bit of research on this lot before the game. Turns out they’re one of those teams that love data,...
Martin Fitzgerald offers up his player ratings after Liverpool beat Sheffield United 2-1 in the Premier League at Anfield… BIG win that, Reds. Massive. That loon they’ve got locked in solitary confinement in Stockley Park tried to fuck us again but the...
THE cafes there must have been gutted there were no away fans. I haven’t seen this many wasted brownies since the Wavertree Girl Guides got into balloons. Anyway, here’s your match ratings… The Growing Pains of Adrian in Goal: 6 Does the occasional thing you...

IN April 2010, the playwright Alan Bennett wrote… “The open mouth of Chelsea’s Frank Lampard, having scored a goal, is also the howl on the face of the damned man in Michelangelo’s Last Judgement.” As you can see below, he had a point. So who’s this...
I USED to have a ritual on the first day of the season. Get down the Wimpy Bar early doors, have a big pre-season meal and then hate Leeds United for the next nine months. But then I moved somewhere that didn’t have a Wimpy and Leeds kept getting relegated. If truth...
