A TWELFTH European Final for Liverpool FC. And it’s been a right laugh along the way; well at least since the draw paired us with Manchester United in the last 16. The word that keeps springing to my mind this fine Friday is enjoyment. Perhaps the cheaper currency of...
THERE’S loads of running involved in football you know, writes MATT KENNY. Absolutely loads. More running in a 90-minute period than most of can even hope to do in a week. And that’s before they even have to worry about being good at football and all that goes...
