Times Are Changing
Indeed it looks like times are changing at Anfield in the not so distant future. And in a big way. Our owners, Fenway Sports Group, are either looking to sell off part of the club, or sell it all lock, stock and barrel. Whichever route they go down, either way, certainly times are changing. And […]
Whatever Happens This Season
Whatever happens this season we should all take a moment to thank Jurgen, his staff, the owners and his incredible players for what the excitement they have given us and for the efforts they have put in. Week after week it seems we confound the fans, pundits and critics. The word relentless springs to mind. […]
Everything Still To Play For
Well here we are, nearly at the end of February and we still have everything to play for. That hasn’t happened for a while has it. Of course, that might all change as early as next Sunday when we play Chelsea in the League Cup Final, but at least we can still say now that […]
Happy With Third
Happy with third place in this season’s Premier League? All things considered, I think that is a fantastic achievement. And we did have a lot of things to consider didn’t we. The stories of all the injuries we sustained to key players has been well documented. But, at the same, not underestimated. Yes, all teams […]
Remembering The 96
The date of 15th April is all about remembering the 96 to all Liverpool fans. It is a date that will always be a very significant, poignant and sad day. For those of us old enough to remember the very first 15th April will be able to recollect so very clearly the 15th April 1989. […]
All To Play For
Having already entered into that crucial stage of the season that we would call a title run-in a few weeks, we are now that bit further down the line. Since confirming our place in the title run-in, how have we coped? We are now so close to the finish line and it’s fair to say, […]
It’s Beyond A Joke – Match Officials That Is
After this latest weekend of football it has to be said (again). The standard of referring is shocking. In fact it’s beyond a joke now. I’m not just talking from a Liverpool fan’s point of view. Every (or should I say most) teams are suffering at the hands of the mediocre standards of the officials. […]
Still All To Play For
Interesting game the other night against Bayern Munich. A 0-0 draw was maybe a fair result to some, although it was Liverpool who created all the chances. Sadio Mane on another night would have at least bagged two. He may even have walked off with the match ball. Anyway, as it is, it is still […]
What A Way To Win A Game
Indeed what a way to win a game. And not just any old game either. A high profile, intense Merseyside Derby at that. Talk about drama!!! It wasn’t just the bizarre goal itself, but of course the timing, the actual goalscorer and the occasion to go with it.
