FOOTBALL clubs have a complicated relationship with their supporters. They basically profit from the levels of intensity. Someone being a Liverpool “supporter” is one thing. But the term we all prefer is “fan”, which is short for...
A SUNDAY 12pm kick off has got to be one of football’s worst ideas. We’ve heard Jürgen Klopp continually gripe about it in the past, including last season when The Reds played Everton at 12.30pm. “I would at least like to have seen it put on at a normal time and not...
“ENJOY the game.” Those were the last words my mum text me following a conversation on Saturday afternoon. Enjoy the game? Sounds so simple, doesn’t it? Everyone is different, but some of us supporters tend to enjoy pretty much everything about matchdays apart from...
ONE of the theories for Liverpool’s current run of form under Jürgen Klopp is that the core group of players understand what is expected of it. They know where to play, when to go, when to stay – what their responsibilities are. And The Reds are reaping the benefits,...
LIVERPOOL, taking the piss. Liverpool, Liverpool, taking the piss. We’re top of the league. Three games into the season, yet to concede a goal or even to get out of third gear. We very rarely get off to this kind of start to a season. In fact, since the Premier League...

IT’S a good time to be alive, isn’t it? A few days till the league starts and The Reds are all on the karaoke. The Instagram videos of new boys Alisson Becker, Fabinho, Naby Keita and Xherdan Shaqiri all having to sing in front of their new teammates, showed just a...
THE 200th meeting between Liverpool and Manchester United was a huge step towards deciding who would be “best of the rest” in the Premier League. A win for The Reds would have put them a point ahead of their north-west rivals, but it was Jose Mourinho’s side who came...
LAST Sunday must have felt like familiar territory for Jürgen Klopp. A copycat 2-1 defeat with a headed winning goal for Crystal Palace at the Anfield Road End will have had the manager’s thoughts laden with déjà vu. Swap last week’s bright spring sunshine for last...
WHEN I was younger I used to love the moment at the start of the second half when the opposition goalkeeper ran towards The Kop, The Kop applauded him and he’d applaud back. It struck me as a moment of real sportsmanship, a signal that Liverpool fans were indeed the...
