THERE’S a scene I love in The Simpsons where Mr Burns hosts a meeting with his highly-paid lawyers in his enormous office. He’s been informed that Homer has a low sperm count due his daily dealings with nuclear contaminants and they need to act quickly to cheat him...
SATURDAY was good fun, wasn’t it? They say a rolling stone gathers no moss. Well I wish it fucking would. I wish it would roll like fuck and clatter into auld Jonny Moss, gather him up like a trodden-on snail and dump him right in the river. That said, it would...
A dreadful result but how bad was the performance? Well a couple of The Anfield Wrap thinks it was really rather abject from Liverpool against Manchester City and that both players and manager should be expecting more and better. Both the defence and the midfield...
A devastating and heavy loss for The Reds as they go 5-0 down away at Manchester City. Neil Atkinson is back from holiday… …and hasn’t seen a minute of the match. There is a story. But Paul Senior and Rob Gutmann talk him through it while playing...

WELL, what do you say about that? The game is gone as soon as Sadio Mane controversially gets his marching orders but there’s no excuse for the way Liverpool played the rest of the game. Schoolboy from start to finish. Here’s what Anfield Wrap contributors...
AS Liverpool enter a crucial part of the season, John Gibbons is joined by Simon Hughes, Dan Fieldsend and Mike Nevin to analyse the international break from a Liverpool point of view and look forward to a massive game away at Manchester City. In part 2 we also speak...
LAST-minute change of plan. I was planning to write about the returning Phil Coutinho this week but someone has got there before me. However, I can’t let it pass without a mini lecture for the hypersensitive. When the errant Brazilian rascal reappears in red, treat...
