AS a footie fan who invests so much into the club you love – time, effort, money, thinking – you want that club to have an identity; to stand for something, to mean something. Liverpool may have a global appeal, and supporters from all over the world, but, ultimately,...
IT’S funny being the buzz. Being the noise. Outside of our bubble we’ve always been regarded as a big team, obviously, but ultimately always supporting cast actors rather than the lead. Now feels different. Now feels like it may just be our time. Let’s tempt fate and...
ALL goalkeepers are mad. Let’s get that out of the way, first and foremost. They are all in some form absolutely insane and, in many ways, need to be for the occupation they have. A position which is the most isolated, in terms of a team game, ‘keepers by their...
HAS it all stopped yet? I really want it to have all stopped. If I want one side jumping on any tiny thing a man does and calling him a disgrace, whilst the other side blindly refuses to accept their hero can do anything wrong, I’ll just search for Jeremy Corbyn...
I’M excited. Excited and a little bit afraid, if I’m being completely honest. Excited that this could well be the best Liverpool team and squad that I have ever had the pleasure of watching in my entire adult life (which I count as 1998 onwards, for those who aren’t...

WEST Ham United were quite good for 45 minutes. They looked a side capable of upsetting the odd applecart. They weren’t upsetting this one. Liverpool had other ideas. The Reds were irresistible from about 15 minutes in and they were not to be denied. They...
THAT was a summer, weren’t it? What have you been up to? I’ll be honest, I’ve tried to swerve The Reds, there; I haven’t seen a minute of pre season, didn’t really get involved in all the transfer voyeurism, just sort of lived for a bit, which was sound. It meant...
“I LOVE the first day, man, everybody all friendly and shit.” Namond Brice in The Wire had it right. School is in as of this weekend and we all get to go back to an environment where fun and enjoyment is just as fundamental as the learning process we continue to go...
Having stabilised their form in the league and put themselves firmly back in the pack chasing Champions League qualification, despite some questionable performances, Liverpool head into Spring with a favourable run of fixtures, can the Reds build on their momentum as business end of the season edges closer?
Rob Gutmann hosts Neil Atkinson, Beth Lindop and Ian Salmon.
