Liverpool With Stunning Comeback

Liverpool quite brilliantly staged one of the most stunning comebacks Anfield has ever seen. Well, not only Anfield for that matter. The magnitude of the comeback in terms of the quality of the opposition was quite staggering. In the first leg a week before, Liverpool earned a credible 1-1 draw in what must have been […]

Farewell To A Legend-Steven Gerrard

In many quarters, especially with Stoke City fans, the 24th May 2015 will be remembered for Liverpool’s 6-1 hammering that day. But to Liverpool fans it meant more than that. As bad as the memory of that defeat is, we would like fonder memories to relive. The day represented a “Farewell To A Legend-Steven Gerrard” […]

Norwich 2, Liverpool 3 – A Real Nail Biter

Firstly, let me begin by saying that as our magnificent run has developed and progressed, our expectations have changed dramatically. The goal posts have well and truly been changed.

Liverpool 3 Manchester City 2 – Now We Are Beginning To Believe!!

The first one at Southampton had “difficult”and “banana skin” stamped right through it, but Liverpool more than acquitted themselves when they came away with a relatively comfortable 3-0 victory. I say “relatively” as Southampton […]

Arsenal 2, Liverpool 1 – Oh What A Webb You Weave Howard!!

Unlike last week after Liverpool’s 5-1 demolition of Arsenal, quality of football and goals wasn’t the main talking point after the game. Yet again, the talking point was Howard Webb, the incredibly inefficient referee who somehow has booked himself a flight to Brazil for this summers World Cup. The game itself was full of incident […]

Liverpool 5, Arsenal 1

Take a good look at that scoreline because they don’t get much better than that. In fact, as good as that scoreline is, 5-1 actually flattered the absolutely outclassed Gunners. Four goals, two other chances and Suarez hitting the woodwork all in the first 19 minutes put all Liverpool fans into dreamland and all Arsenal […]

The Season So Far – Derby Day Delight In January

The highlight of our six games in January was of course our 4-0 demolition job over our neighbours across Stanley Park, Everton on the 28th January. The way in which we took them apart was incredible in so far as they had only conceded 11 goals on their travels all season and, to many, were […]
