Mario Balotelli
Stood in the middle of a bar in Huddersfield. United fans surrounding me, but my Liverbird proudly making it’s presence felt, or more putting on a brave face as I begin to believe a comeback was on the cards for a split second. Christian Benteke’s over head kick momentarily stunned the Mancs, maybe they believed […]
Writing an article like this is never easy after a horrific viewing of an abysmal display against one of your biggest rival’s both for league positions and pride. To make matters even worse, I was surrounded by a family of Manchester United supports who jumped on my back (not literally) when it came to every […]
When Mario Balotelli signed for Liverpool last year, to say opinion was divided would be an understatement. Some thought it was disaster waiting to happen whilst others believed it would be Mario’s time to shine. Loved by an adoring, famously loyal fan base, he would finally show the world his talent on a football pitch. […]
One week before the Premier League season kicks off and James Pearce’s Blood Red article made its appearance on the Liverpool echo website. It was supposed to be about Rickie Lambert leaving but that wouldn’t have caused controversy so for an added bonus he decided to have a pop at Mario Balotelli. He quickly swept […]

The much maligned ‘duo’ of Brendan Rodgers and the Liverpool transfer committee have taken much criticism over the past 12 months. To summarise it, the Liverpool fan base is pretty much divided by which side of the fence you take refuge on. Are you someone who sympathises with Brendan Rodgers having to find room in […]
A financial analysis of LFC’s 2014-2015 transfers This article looks at Liverpool’s transfer activity last summer and asks whether it is financially viable to cut our losses on certain players who have flattered to deceive and how selling such players could potentially impact the club’s purchasing power for the upcoming transfer window. As the curtain […]
Brendan Rodgers and the mysterious Transfer Committee spent over 100 million during the summer of 2014. After selling star-man, Luis Suarez, for a hefty fee no Liverpool fan was too worried. Money had been spent and hopes were high that another title tilt could be launched. Now a season on and expectations have been well […]
Many moons ago (roughly ten), last season ended in glorious failure, of sorts, for Liverpool Football Club and its fans.
