It’s safe to say that being a Liverpool supporter for the better part of half a century has been a predominantly wonderful experience. Yet for all the visceral thrills and moments of unfiltered joy, there have also been some deep troughs of despair, some journeys to very bottom of the Slough of Despond. Often these […]
News will continue to circulate, with LFC-related transfer rumours now a daily part of a Liverpool supporter’s life. The ongoing transition in our squad will now be overseen by the mildly controversial Jorg Schmadtke, who has just been appointed as our new Sporting Director. It is unclear whether he is merely an extension of Jürgen […]
Stevie Gerrard cemented his role as Aston Villa manager this past weekend when leading his new side into Anfield. The game was full of frustration, and gave mild indications of the manager he is becoming. With an ultra defensive style and formula built to slow the rampaging reds, he showed perhaps too much respect for […]
I wanted to distract a little from the joys of the transfer window, so would like to share some thoughts on one of the reds’ greatest ever central defenders. Hint: it’s not Dejan Lovren.

Having faced a huge setback in their attempts to reach back to back Champions League finals, Liverpool return to Premier League action, where the hunt for the big trophy is still very much alive. Whilst it feels like City will never drop points again, Liverpool know that all they can do is win their last […]
Liverpool, Anfield, Europe. It’s a combination that has a real history of magic. How many great teams have come to Anfield, expecting to get a result, and been summarily turned over, the sheer force of the stadium, the crowd and the team pulling through. To be fair, in my lifetime, at least, that has certainly […]
Liverpool FC vs. Newcastle United FC; it’s one of the most historic games in the Premier League, supposedly always meant to be a toe-to-toe, all-action, enigmatic thriller. Add in the magic of Boxing Day – a day which Liverpool have not lost a league match on for over twenty years – and the return of […]
