“FROM next season, the Premier League is going to look a bit different,’ the organisation’s official Twitter handle announced yesterday morning, inviting surfers (if that’s what we still call Internet users) to watch a promotional video about its new...
HEARTBREAKING. And I didn’t expect to be writing that tonight. Absolutely heartbreaking to see that happen to these lads after the performance they put in. Liverpool deserved the lot insofar as either side did. Liverpool deserved to go to Blackburn; deserved to...
AHHHH, what a heartbreaker. We have deserved to lose many games this season, but that wasn’t one of them. After a slow start, Liverpool took over the game and I could only see one winner. West Ham looked done in and we looked destined to score, or at least win...
CAN’T wait for tonight. Train leaves at four. Cans are in the fridge. Just need to write this nonsense, and we’re all set. In the current climate, it is probably worth pointing out that adult tickets for tonight’s game are £20. With a cheap advance...

IF you’ve ever read an article I’ve written for the Anfield Wrap, you’ll know they are rare and tend only to appear when I have something to say that I have to get out of my head in order to get some sleep, writes PAUL COPE. Well,...
IT is surprising how often my thoughts and random daydreams always come back to Sam Allardyce and his life. I can’t help it. I have tried to scratch him from my mind but it’s no good. I think about whether he can sing and, if so, whether he sings around the...
LIVERPOOL 2 Sunderland 0: Black flags before kick off. A foreboding atmosphere around Anfield. Black flags waving, banners conspicuous by their absence and a large gathering of the disaffected. Large groups congregated in a place is one of the things history is made...
IF you leave on 77 minutes it’s hard to do this. If you leave on 77 in THAT game it’s even harder. We were 2-0 up and playing well and then, by all accounts, all that went out the window. It shows a mental weakness in the team and a defensive fragility we...
