The Rider is ever so slightly out of its natural habitat and more than ever so slightly giddy. Neil Atkinson hosts in the loosest sense of the word while John Gibbons, Stephanie Heneghan and Ad Melia run riot across the show. We’re all over the running, of...

WE all needed that, Reds, didn’t we? It’s typical Liverpool to go from having no one on the end of gilt-edged chances for weeks on end to having players literally running into each other to put the ball in the net and not being able to decide which of them actually...
