ROBERTO Firmino’s thunderous half-volley to secure all three points away at Stoke prompted wild celebrations from the Liverpool supporters, the players and the man himself — whipping his shirt off and launching it up in the air in front of a flare-lit away...
JUST pick your strongest team. That’s what they always say, isn’t it? Why aren’t you picking your strongest team? It’s the FA Cup / Stoke away / [insert the most recent game here]. If you don’t pick your strongest team you’re disrespecting the competition / don’t know...
THERE’S something about Stoke away which is so off-putting as to almost make you not want to watch it. Memories of the 6-1 when everyone at Liverpool should have been dismissed instantly, a horrible drive to get there; it’s further than you think, you know, them...
SATURDAY is a fresh start after an early night Friday night after the races on Thursday, which made Friday a day very much one to just get through. But an early night rewarded me with a clear head and glorious sunshine. Go ‘ed, the world. It was a small mob...

BY Wednesday I am more or less over the derby hangover and looking forward to a day at the races on Thursday. All I need is a nice win for the Reds to set me up for a great day of taking money off the bookies. Neither of these things happen. We’re all in work...
THIS is going to be a slog. I can’t quite remember when we last had to dog a season out quite like this. There’s lots to play for but the gods are moving against us. It’s tempting to pre-mitigate failure by noting that we’re having to stumble...
THERE are some things you never forget. Some things that stay with you forever, faded and jaded but still a part of you, in football and in life. Cup finals, title deciders, your first game. Treasured times when a cat, a dog, a hamster, a nun, runs across the pitch in...
