We are already well aware that recent social distancing measures are taken the world of sports by storm. While both teams and players alike have been severely impacted, we need to keep in mind that every organisation will react differently. In the case of Liverpool FC, the restrictions imposed in March were particularly heartbreaking....
In the aftermath of the Community Shield, which saw Manchester City beat Liverpool on penalties after a 1-1 draw, the main talking point is not the match itself, but the events before kick-off.
As the players lined up facing the royal box, in front of Prince William, it was announced that the national anthem would...
We are four games into the season and have accumulated 12 points from a possible 12 points, yet the doom and gloom merchants are out in force, criticising Jurgen Klopp’s team selection, his use of substitutions, his timing of substitutions etc.
Liverpool had played their first three games of the season with the same starting...
Trees in their full viridian pomp, flowers bursting into bloom; these are the first indications that summer is finally upon us.
Signs that the summer transfer window is in full swing are a little more subtle. TheFirm waking up from his winter hibernation, sending his first tweets of the season... FSGOut’ers brushing the dust off...
Being a Liverpool fan, I’ve fallen out of love with the game more times than I can count. Between marginally losing the league in 2008/09, and again in 2013/14, to seeing some of the icons I grew up supporting and adoring leaving the club one-by-one – who could blame me, right?

It's been 6 years since Liverpool last won a trophy, the League Cup under Kenny Dalglish in the 2011-12 season. And the previous trophy to that was the FA Cup in 2006. And it feels like approximately 408 years since we last won the league. So it's fair to say that Liverpool fans have...
I don’t write columns very often. A combination of being too busy with work and not really being arsed make this the first thing I’ve written in a year. I normally prefer to just spew my thoughts en masse onto my Twitter account and leave you to figure out what I’m trying to say....
January 24th, 1999. It’s a Sunday afternoon that still fills me with horror, and always will.
I was turning 12 years of age the following day, and with Sky Sports still not a part of my household, my Dad took me to the pub to watch Liverpool’s FA Cup fourth round clash with Man United,...
Jürgen Klopp has recently signed a new six-year contract extension despite joining the club less than a year ago. The club’s owners described it as ‘irresponsible’ not to offer him a long-term contract. The current deal lasts until 2022 and it will certainly be interesting if Klopp serves the full length of his contract....
I understand, you're scarred. A fanbase living in perpetual fear, of the failings from previous managers and previous owners. Unable to let go of all the nearly moments, of all the false dawns. You're sick of word transition, of buying potential. Tired of watching rivals attract some of the finest players in Europe; while...
