A SHITE weekend then, all told. The Reds doing what they did in a manner that seemed all so preventable. A must-win, had-to-win, surely-will-win…lost. A real sickener. A gut punch. A game lost twice. The pain has been predictably piled on today. Arsenal winning with a...
What can be said about Liverpool’s defeat to Swansea? It’s as much therapy session as podcast with Rob Gutmann, Paul Cope and Chris Maguire. Three men in search of meaning, in search of encouragement, in search of finding a way to put a smile on host Neil...

Mike Nevin reflects on why opposing fans hate Liverpool so much after the reds FA Cup tie vs Plymouth Argyle where anti-scouse songs rang around the Home Park. I MANAGED to get myself really wound up while watching the Plymouth cup replay in midweek. What irked me...
