“LET’S go and sing songs with our friends.” My words to Marjo at the foot of the stairs outside the ground. I’ve spent too much of the last five years not singing songs with my friends. I intend to do it all night tonight. Brendan. I am amazed...
LOOKING back at this season, it’s hard to shake the feeling of ‘what could have been’, writes PAUL McCABE. The Chelsea defeat and the surrender of a three-goal lead to Crystal Palace prompted many to accuse Liverpool of bottling it; of coming up short when it mattered...
NEIL Atkinson was joined in Liverpool’s Radio City Tower by John Gibbons, Rob Gutmann, Steve Graves and Kristan Heneage as they look towards Sunday’s Newcastle game at Anfield, which will cap a magnificent season for the Mighty Reds regardless of the final...
