I LOVE Liverpool Football Club. I love watching them play matches, I love talking about them and I love writing about them. Since The Anfield Wrap’s first ever podcast I don’t think I’ve missed one, so I obviously love listening to other people talk about the club,...

AS the final whistle blew on the Hull City edition of Liverpool’s points giveaway in 2017, dejected fans began to point fingers, and point them just about everywhere, writes JOE WATSON. Fair enough. It was a poor performance and just another case of unexpected...

JONNY GIBSON LIVERPOOL’S poor form since the turn of the year has posed a question that no Reds fan wants to consider. What if Liverpool finished fifth? After a spirited performance against league leaders Chelsea last week, Liverpool fans were heading into the...

LET me take you back to a painful day in our recent history. Sunday April 27, 2014. Liverpool 0 Chelsea 2. That one. I was low down on The Kop that day with my mate Tony. Front row, corner flag. We were so close to the action that we could have tapped Iago Aspas on...

THREE years to the day since the best 20 minutes of your life. Liverpool beat Arsenal 5-1 on this day in 2014. The first 20 minutes were the best 20 minutes of your life or you just aren’t doing it right. Your life I mean — you aren’t doing your life...

HOW apt that this latest defeat occurred just after Groundhog Day in the United States, writes DAVID TULLY. The Reds, it’s fair to say, have been hiding in their own burrow ever since December 31. Here we are, just a little over a month since George blared out...

I FIRST got a season ticket in 1982. Main Stand, somewhere between the half-way line and the Anny Road penalty box. Not yet 16 and already leaving the tumult, the chaos and the ever-present threat of damp feet that marked The Kop’s unique appeal way behind. The hope...

MY mates would tell you I’m too much of a knob to be a full-back, they’re usually a quiet bunch who keep themselves to themselves and keep things ticking along, not causing any trouble or getting drunk. I think my dark side comes from always wanting to be a centre...

I GOT accidentally drunk on Friday. We’ve all been there. After a couple at AFQ we were going to an event at Bluecoat Chambers for their 300th birthday. That’s quite impressive, isn’t it? A building knocking about in town that’s older than The...
