“THERE is a tide in the affairs of men, which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune.” WHILE it might not be obvious why I’ve begun with a William Shakespeare quote, consider the following. Shakespeare’s argument is that opportunity ebbs and flows in...
IF the Leicester City game was a masterpiece, Wolves was a hastily drawn map to the Post Office scratched on the back of a ciggy packet. While one game had wit and verve, the other was a war of attrition as both sides faced an in-form Anthony Taylor. Despite the...
WELL, I mean, Christmas is a thing, isn’t it? On the one hand, the most wonderful time of the year. On the other hand, is everyone fucking knackered? Emotionally and physically? I mean, I am. And certainly the footballers are. We’ll get to the referee. You...
HAHAHA, that number seven. Fucking celebrated like fucking Tardelli, Dalglish at Stamford Bridge in ’86, the fucking Olympics opening ceremony, fucking one small step for man; a giant leap for mankind, hang on, this isn’t the fucking moon. Haha, dickhead. What a...

HAPPY Christmas, pilgrims. Another year and The Reds top of the pile again on the 25th. I make this the fourth time in the past 10 years that this has happened – 2009, 2014, 2018, 2019. They used to say that the team that lead at Christmas always won the title...
IT was supposedly a meaningless tournament created as an indulgent money-spinner by FIFA. However, the triumphant Liverpool players seemed to enjoy their victory on Saturday a lot more than they were apparently meant to. Despite some missed chances, a determined and...
LITTLE legs. Look at him give it little legs. World champions. The best in the world. I mean, you knew it anyway. You had it in your back pocket. You took it home, you polished it up. You hoped it and prayed it as well as believing and knowing. The best in the world...
