Manchester City CAS Verdict
It seems that all sports pages and football forums are discussing the Manchester City CAS verdict. I must admit I haven’t read that many of those that have merely offered an opinion. You’ve all probably seen the messages of things like “RIP FFP” and such like. Will it be the end of FFP? I don’t […]
On This Day 1st July
Still celebrating everyone? Will we ever get tired of reading “Liverpool FC – Premier League Champions.” Probably not. Anyway, back on planet earth, let’s have a look at a couple of events from our illustrious past. On this day 1st July sees another couple of significant managerial events to look back on. To say there […]
Danny Murphy And His Boot Lacing Opinions
Have you ever said something but then after saying it you have immediately regretted saying it? I’m sure many of you have. I wonder if Danny Murphy, ex-Liverpool midfielder, has had that thought in the last day or two? Maybe he hasn’t. If that is the case then fair enough. Football is all about opinions. […]
Liverpool Are Champions
Liverpool Are Champions!!!! How good is it to write that. Very good. So, I’ll write it again. Liverpool Are Champions. And let’s not shy away from saying it, very worthy Champions. What this team has done over the last two seasons is nothing short of remarkable. One defeat in the league last season, 97 points, […]
On This Day 24th June
On this day 24th June. A couple of big events to give a mention to. On this day 24th June 2020 of course is a big event. There is a big game tonight. Crystal Palace at home kick-off 8:15pm. A home game with a difference of course. As we all know, the game will be […]
Merseyside Derby With A Difference
It’s finally here. Football is back. After three months away from football we are returning to some sort of normality later today when we take on Everton at Goodison. With all that’s happened over the last three months it certainly will be a Merseyside Derby with a difference. Mainly of course because the game will […]
Significant Departures On June 3rd
On this day we have seen significant departures on June 3rd in previous years. There may have been more of course but the two I am going to mention were very significant. Also, although many of us did not think so at the time, the departures resulted in a positive end result. Looking at each […]
25th May Istanbul And Rome Remembered
Today is always a special day in any Liverpool fan’s diary. 25th May. What a special occasion on not just one, but two occasions. 25th May 1977 was the day of our very first European Cup Final win. A 3-1 victory against Borussia Monchengladbach saw us lift number one. Or, as it was in Rome, […]
20th May 1989
Of course the year 1989 will be remembered for the Hillsborough tragedy above anything else. It is still something that is so vivid in the memory banks. For so many others as well. Football rightly took a back seat for a few weeks until such time the club and, more importantly, the families felt it […]
16th May 2001
On this day 16th May 2001 was another one of those “it was great to be there moments.” This was the day we completed a unique cup treble when we beat Alaves in the final of the UEFA Cup. Having previously beaten Birmingham City and Arsenal in the two domestic cup finals, we went to […]
