ANOTHER draw. Another afternoon of misfiring in front of goal. And another draw there, which has resulted in some supporters of 10th-placed Everton having a little gloat about it all. They’ve not had too much else to shout about so fair play. I remember those days....
SOMETIMES, you play the game out beforehand in your head. You don’t particularly want to, but you can’t help it. You’re doing the shopping, travelling to work, pretending to listen to your boss, your mind wanders, thinking about the big game, imagining what might...
IT’S a phrase that has long since fell into cliché, and for many the name of the man that delivered it will mean little in the modern day. But retro, clichéd, or otherwise, Jimmy Greaves still had it dead right when he routinely described football as a “funny old...

MY worst memory as a Liverpool fan isn’t a final we’ve lost, although the FA Cup in 1996 was a particularly dark day. It isn’t a player leaving, although I’m sure we all have one who broke our heart — hiya, Fernando. It wasn’t even...
IT was the best of times. It was the worst of times. The opening game of the Champions League highlighted the differing trajectories of Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur, albeit merely weeks into the new campaign. While Liverpool outplayed one of the tournament’s...
