Twitter is the breeding ground for bad ideas and I've seen plenty on there lately. From the petition to sign Marco Reus, the "let's all dress as Jurgen Klopp" for the Villa game movement that made the press to the recent "I hope we lose so Brendan Rodgers is sacked" gang that's starting to...
Derby day is around the corner. The time of the season when the city of Liverpool unites in an amalgamation of red and blue. Little red children walk hand in hand with little blue children. The elderly Toffee fan gazes longingly into the eyes of the of the recently retired Liverbird wondering if she...
Forced jollity is invariably a terrible thing to be part of. When your heart is not in it, it's enormously difficult to actively enjoy anything. For much of this week, I've felt like one of the kids on the school bus hijacked by the Scorpio Killer in Dirty Harry. In an attempt to create...
Liverpool have had a few prolific partnerships in their history, a few spring to mind instantly with very little thought. John Toshack and Kevin Keegan, Ian Rush and Kenny Dalglish, Robbie Fowler and Michael Owen, Emile Heskey and Michael Owen, Fernando Torres and Steven Gerrard and of course Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge.

In the late months of 2000, my aunt and Godmother died. That’s the same person, by the way. It was a bad time but not a double tragedy.

It’s a stressful thing supporting modern Liverpool.

We fret about everything now. Fellow Reds willingly offer counsel on this matter on...
Something happened after Liverpool's 3-1 defeat to Manchester United a few weeks ago. Something that hasn't happened under the reign of Brendan Rodgers. The fans united and their voice became unanimous. Brendan Rodgers needs to go. Even during the dark days of last season, you could always find a big chunk of the fan...
Liverpool's Europa League draw wasn't the toughest all things considered. Barring the trip to Russia there shouldn't really be anything there to concern us. There's no reason The Reds shouldn't top that group but It'd be foolish to take these matches for granted. Many fans won't be familiar with FC Sion, I doubt many...
It's becoming deeply uncomfortable and complicated now, this drawn out but seemingly inevitable split between Brendan Rodgers and Liverpool Football Club. Saturday's victory, with it's teasing glimpses of the heady days of 2014, may have muddied the waters somewhat for FSG. Or perhaps it will have mattered not a jot. Sadly, those of us...
Since the departure of the mercurial Luis Suarez, it has not been the easiest of times for Brendan Rodgers, but where has it gone wrong, for a man believed to be so tactically astute? In this detailed article I intend to run over some of the more recent mistakes of Rodgers, and where the...
