I’VE never known a season with so much quality attacking football. I’ve never known a season where Liverpool are awarded so few penalties, especially at home. I’m prepared to allow for a tactical idea — that sides tend to stand off...
FUCKING Stoke. I’m going home for a cup of tea in a glass. Going to smash the living daylights out of all of me bowls, cups, plates and anything that looks like they might make it in Stoke. Single-use plastic lad, that’s where it’s at. Use it once, lash it in the sea....
SAVE the whatthefuckery till the end of the season, because right now it means absolutely nothing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, me an all, as soon as Mo Salah, in the third minute of the match, revealed that actually he is in fact the product of natural evolution, of this earth...
I DIDN’T sleep last night. Spent the small hours fighting with my pillow, turning the TV on and off, getting up to take unneeded pisses. I’m not in a fit state now. I’m a troubled soul. Why? I’ll tell you why. Sadio Mane is injured. And Liverpool have a European Cup...

GET out the way, West Brom. Just move, will ya? Only the European Cup matters. I think only the European Cup has ever mattered. All else is chimera. Can you even be a Liverpool supporter without feeling this way about the European Cup? It defines no English team the...
THE recent positioning from The Government and The Premier League regarding rail seating and the desire of football fans to stand at matches is more than a little odd so far. Not only are the statements and justifications lacking in real detail – for instance, how was...
RIGHT, I know we haven’t really, but this feels a bit like we’ve got a week off between articles full of drama and references to emojis and Cambridge Analytica, so I think it’s best that we use it productively. To that end, let’s start with a bit of admin. For those...
