SO there’s Rafa Benitez there, looking all managerial and important. What a man. Have a lovely big reminisce about them mad days with that mad crazy, needly bastard in charge of us. While you are doing that have a lovely big think about the now and have a look at...
CALL it run of the mill; it’s the thing that’s easy to say. Just a run-of-the-mill home victory. Pre match we’re in The Hole In The Wall and this bloke comes over and points to three fellas and says that these lads have come from California and had...
Pre Match WHAT’S your favourite Davie Moyes moment? There’s plenty to choose from in fairness. I was a big fan of his half-time team talk in the FA Cup semi when he swallowed his undies and Big Andy Carroll lolloped that header rar in. Or his leaving doo from the...
WATCHING this Liverpool side step it up should take your breath away and we should have been left breathless at the start of the second half. Should. I’m worried a little bit. Worried we are taking for granted how good this side is, treating emphatic wins and...
IT’S a magnificent Liverpool victory. An historic one and one which signposts exactly where Liverpool stand in Europe’s current reckoning. Imagine this was Barcelona or Real Madrid or Bayern Munich going to somewhere like Porto and doing this. Imagine...
SO The Reds are in the European Cup knockouts for the first time since we were all either a) kids, b) optimistic, or c) less baldy. These are what proper nerves are all about. Apparently, the last time we had one of these was that mad Chelsea one where Javier...

THE game is about the second goal. The second goal tells us everything about the game and about these two teams and where they are right now. It is a goal Southampton never score. It is a goal Liverpool score all the time. Or a goal it feels like we score all the...
THESE two statements are equally true: Liverpool had the hardest of hard lines Liverpool were lucky to take a point from the game. It was a crazy evening at Anfield with Liverpool spending much of the game either acting — or being — second best. Second...
FOOTIE, mate. How often does a referee listen to a linesman? They are absolutely the mings of the footie world. Imagine being that unsure of your own ability that you defer to a skinny fella who can’t ref a game, can’t control a game, can’t make a decision. Fucking...
