IT’S been one mother fucker of a season. Horrible really. Apart from the long sustained good bit in the middle. We’ll finish fifth. Triffic. Do you want to know what makes it such a disaster ? I ask because, taking last season out, Liverpool FC’s average...
ANFIELD’S atmosphere was once a source of pride for Liverpool fans but now it’s perceived by many match-goers to be a problem. This season in particular, the atmosphere – or lack of it – has rarely been off the agenda for Reds at the game. The debate among...
I *LOVE* Rafa Benitez. I love the bones of him. I’m willing to bet I’m in the top one percent of worldwide Rafa lovers. There are basically his kids, Montse and Antonio Nunez that I’m prepared to acknowledge might be ahead of me. It’s important...
THE bickering is back. The Liverpool fanbase truly divided once again. Bizarre accusations of ‘agendas’ have remerged and everyone is wondering what happens next at Anfield. Questions, questions, questions. Emergency meetings are said to have taken place behind...
SOME years ago I was living in London and I started dating this girl I’d met at work. We hit it off immediately and as the months went by we saw more and more of each other. At some point we figured it made sense to move in with each other. For starters I was staying...
YOU have to be sure. It’s no small thing taking away the Liverpool job, so you have to be sure. I feel like Henry Fonda in Twelve Angry Men, writes PAUL LITTLE. It has to be beyond reasonable doubt for me – or at least that’s how I always feel when it comes to...
DISCUSSING Liverpool right now feels a lot like the moment Bill Murray wakes up on February 2 at six o’clock to I Got You Babe by Sonny & Cher. Again and again and again. Instead, in the Scouse version of Groundhog Day, we wake up and someone tells us we still...
TOMORROW’S trip to The Hawthorns feels massive for Brendan Rodgers with all the talk about his future and the Liverpool boss is yet to register a league win at West Brom with a 3-0 defeat followed by a 1-1 draw on the Reds’ last two visits. With Albion...
LAST week I wrote about the excitement and anticipation of an FA Cup semi-final. While there were traditional nerves, I don’t think any of us envisaged such an insipid Liverpool performance; an absolute dog of show. I’ve had a funny feeling for a while — based...
ACCORDING to reports, Brendan Rodgers has been sent for. As a fan of Al Pacino, this reminds me of the film Donnie Brasco. If you haven’t seen it, and don’t understand the term in that context, a potted history is coming. If you have or are aware of Mafioso lexicon,...
With Liverpool announcing earlier today that they are increasing ticket prices after a freeze of 8 years, is the raise justifiable or proportionate, especially considering the relative lack of increase in proportion to overall turnover and the wider impact on the clubs fan base given how the club actively markets the fans commercially?
Josh Sexton is joined by Jay McKenna, Gareth Roberts and Phil Blundell.
