JORDAN Henderson revealed that the atmosphere created by Liverpool supporters before the 3-2 win at home to Manchester City in 2014 made the players feel as though they couldn’t lose. In a 30-minute interview exclusive to The Anfield Wrap’s TAW Player subscription...
FOR years, football supporters across the UK have discussed rail seating, whether you should be allowed to sit or stand at football matches. They’ve discussed the pros and cons, had conversations with their clubs and supporter groups have asked their supporters what...
