EVERYONE remembers their first game don’t they? I think I’ve told you mine but I’ll tell you again. May 1990, I’d just turned 8 years old, and my dad had two tickets for Liverpool vs QPR at Anfield. When he showed me them they may as well have...
ON the TAW podcast in the aftermath of Liverpool’s defeat to Manchester City, Neil Atkinson and I debated the merits of using Steven Gerrard as a defensive midfielder. My argument was – and remains – that Gerrard is one of Liverpool’s best natural finishers. He can...
“Ambassador, with these Rocher you are really spoiling us!” FERRERO Rocher football – this at times was Ferrero Rocher football. Brendan Rodgers is ‘the ambassador’ and when we play like we did a White Hart Lane then he is indeed “spoiling us”. Daniel Sturridge....
AFTER last season’s jump from so far to so near, Liverpool are desperate to make a statement. The club wants to tell the football world that last season was no fluke; that the club is here to stay – feasting at the top table, back in the Champions League, challenging...

WHAT an annoying buzz phrase it is. Having been a civil servant for a large part of my recent history, it has been haunting me, following me everywhere. Constantly being told what we are doing ‘going forward’. In the last year or so, I have noticed it...
DOO is a bit angry. Anger doesn’t suit Doo. Doo is a really nice fella. Doo is a Southampton fan. *This isn’t going to go all ‘I want to introduce you to someone’. Doo works at Southampton University, is a born-again fitness enthusiast and has been nowhere near Iran....
It’s 26 years to the day since Ian Rush returned to Liverpool after his short spell at Juventus. NEIL SCOTT remembers it well. AS anyone with a cursory knowledge of the football landscape will tell you, the transfer window has its own unique lexicon. “Sources...
LIVERPOOL would bust lungs, strain muscles and push for victory like a sprinter at the Olympic Games with the finish line in sight and a record time on the clock. They would relentlessly square up to opponents in their own half – get in their faces, force them on to...
