I WAS an angry Red. On Saturday I could barely keep myself from choking on my own rage (ala Moe Szyslak) at the ineptitude of the ‘performance’ against Newcastle. I didn’t think I could get any angrier… and then I saw the starting line-up...
I START to write this under these two circumstances: a) not knowing if Gibbo is writing one b) in a taxi with Andy Heaton before the game We’ve just come out of Mercado de San Miguel. Have you been? You certainly should if you are ever in Madrid. It’s a...

TWELVE years have passed since Rafael Benitez first introduced himself to Anfield. And what an introduction this was. The Spaniard arrived on Merseyside for a Champions League clash with his Valencia team on this very date back in 2002. The then reigning champions of...
FOURTEEN years ago today a little bit of derby history was made. Everton came to Anfield under Walter Smith to face Gerard Houllier’s Liverpool and – perhaps more importantly for our blue brethren – Nick Barmby in the first Anfield derby of the Millennium....
By Martin Fitzgerald WHAT round was that? Who are the sponsors now? I’ve no idea. All I know is it’s the League Cup – the cup you don’t take seriously until you take it seriously. We’ve played a home game against Middlesbrough that had 31...
