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...
THE referee pretty much makes the gig redundant. It really isn’t fair on anyone involved. It genuinely isn’t his fault. He is absolutely completely out of his depth. Imagine Danny Devito with a load of stones in his pockets being plopped in the deep end. Shite. I...
IT’S December 1981 and Liverpool, the champions of Europe, are playing Brazilian aces Flamengo in Tokyo. It’s kicking off at about 3am UK time. I’m virtually 15 years old and very excited at the prospect of The Reds being crowned kings of the world. For some reason,...

THERE was a moment when it was suggested that Liverpool wouldn’t even enter this year’s World Club Championship. It would clearly represent a distraction from the main objectives. There will have been pressure from above to make a go of it though, with...
