YOU can approach this a number of ways. You can point out Liverpool did alright and were unfortunate, especially with the equaliser occurring while the solid Allen was off the pitch. You can observe the misses from Lambo along with the goal. Two chances, one...
THIS needs a power crawl. It’s a massive game for us and them and it needs a power crawl. Don’t know who decided that. Me or Graves. One of us. It involves getting in, and being in, the city from 11. Being there and touring it. Hitting it. Being one with...
I START to write this under these two circumstances: a) not knowing if Gibbo is writing one b) in a taxi with Andy Heaton before the game We’ve just come out of Mercado de San Miguel. Have you been? You certainly should if you are ever in Madrid. It’s a...
