THEY fucking love getting their hair cut in Watford, you know. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen so many barbers in one gaff in my life. About 10, in a row, all of them chocker. Mad that, isn’t it? Alisson: 7 Tried to pass one to Firmino at centre half first half but fucked...
IT’S a small away end at Watford. I wish you could have been there with us, I wish it with all my heart. But that wasn’t always the case. Surround me with songs of deliverance, oh lord. You know, it was purgatory at the break. While Liverpool had finished...
IF there’s such a thing as a bipolar group of fans, surely it’s at Liverpool. Our mood swings between optimistic fervour, characterised by the swagger of European encounters where we beat Manchester City home and away, and the hapless pessimism experienced recently by...
I LIKE a bit of Watford. It’s a no-nonsense away. Not so close that you barely feel you’ve had a day out but far enough that it feels like going on a mission. I’m becoming fonder of aways the older I’m getting. When I was young it was all about Anfield. That was going...

HOPE can do funny things to a football fan. You hope that you will go into every game asserting the superiority you have made yourself believe your side has, regardless of who they’re up against. You eternally hope that you will support by far the greatest team…...
IT’S the nightmare so many Reds have been whispering about. The idea that this Liverpool side – which has been showing for 12 months or more now that it can clock up consistent results and compete at the top of the Premier League – ends up with a record points total...
IT’S dead hard playing centre mid for Liverpool. Been saying it for a while and today that hopefully has been made crystal clear. I say “hopefully” because there have been people refusing to accept this for an astonishing length of time. I say...
