I WISH I could be with you. I wish they’d got a fifth. Other than that, other than those two things, that was about as close as it gets to perfect. Two points to go. Two points for heaven’s sake. Two points for heaven. And next up, our direct rivals....
THE first few minutes before kick off, honestly brought a tear to the eye. When You’ll Never Walk Alone started and Tyler shut up and the camera just stayed on The Kop with all the flags, mate. Christ. The first one back, just imagine the first one back. And then,...
I SUPPOSE you can’t have everything. It wasn’t the best derby performance ever and that might have been down to rustiness, unusual playing conditions or simply a case of ‘too many cooks’. It wasn’t just the Liverpool team that played on Sunday night, but the Liverpool...
IT could prove a significant moment. Ben Mee, straight down the barrel of the camera making clear that he and his side were both embarrassed and ashamed by the banner that flew over their heads. Mee is absolutely bristling with anger as he speaks, infuriated as much...
LIVERPOOL supporters have been truly spoiled this season. We’ve gorged on a diet of wins and goals and have been league champions in all but name for months. Wrapping up league titles early is not a new phenomenon. Just two seasons ago, Pep Guardiola’s 100-point Man...

FUCKING hell. The world has nearly ended, there. Every cunt stayed in their house, heads kettled left right and centre. But every day, the thing that got us through it – the lockdown boredom, the fucking zoom calls, the working from home, the fucking home...
I TELL you what. That was quite the journey. I went from thinking it was just a victory that we were getting to watch The Reds again when so many were so desperate for it not to be happening, to Liverpool making me tear my hair out, to being happy with a point, to...
I LOVE the derby. I’ve always loved the derby. And while this one is undoubtedly going to be weird, it’s another derby nevertheless. Something to feast on after a football famine. And another way to beat Everton. In the summer. In June. On my birthday. It’s a time of...
