DROPPED points elsewhere. Every game matters. True and tiring – every game matters. I’m in Las Vegas, New York New York and I wake at 6.20am, 20 minutes before my alarm is set. The alarm being set then felt optimistic but, somewhere on some string theory...

JAMIE BRAIDWOOD AFTER a night of frustration against Manchester United, Liverpool are looking to bounce back and get back to winning ways on Saturday. Standing in their way are West Bromwich Albion and Tony Pulis, who boasts an excellent record against the Reds. We...

MONDAY night’s are no time for football. I spent the weekend decorating. Decorating! And people ask why I watch so much football. If that’s the alternative I’ll swap a scraper for a rattle and go to the match until I’m 100. It does liven up the...
