DORTMUND holds a special place in my heart, as I’m sure it does for many others around my age. My first European final in 2001, the club’s first since 1985, and a crazy day and night where it lashed down and there were an improbable number of goals...
STOKE at home. Nothing to play for. Only Stoke at home. Nothing to play for. Might as well not go. When I was 12, I went to my first match at Anfield. It was a League Cup game on a midweek night against Portsmouth. They were then, as now, mired somewhere in football’s...

I’M not sure if you are aware, but someone writing for The Anfield Wrap last week apparently referred to the current England manager as the Devil. I know, it’s outrageous isn’t it? Whoever it was should be ashamed of themselves. I’m fairly sure they will have...
IT could be argued that since going down in the second half at St Mary’s two weeks ago our league season has effectively ended, writes CHARLIE CHRISTIAN. It’s true that our chances of finishing in the top four have greatly diminished as a result of those shambolic 45...
