“LIVERPOOL Football Club would like to thank you for your continued support.” You’ve got to give it to the fella on the tannoy, he’s definitely got sarcasm nailed. Another famous European Night under the lights at Anfield? Do me a fucking favour. The power...

NIL-nil half time. Three-nil full time. The first half is turgid. Are you surprised? Were you angry? Don’t be angry. You are better than that. Regardless, if you are a half-decent football team and you got carved apart time and again — it’s worth...

FANCY being in with a chance to win a Liverpool 2017-18 home shirt signed by Daniel Sturridge? The striker scored his 100th career goal on Saturday against Huddersfield Town, making it 62 in total for The Reds. We were lucky enough to spend some time with Daniel at...

LAST week we weren’t happy with Jürgen Klopp and his gang of defeated urchins. This week Klopp wasn’t happy with us and our gaggle of silent urchins. Thankfully the team on the pitch won comfortably, but we got absolutely slaughtered by Huddersfield Town in the fan...
