"My one regret in life is that I am not someone else." Woody Allen All of us know the irksome sting of regret.

Without Rodgers, We Wouldn’t Be Here

You all know, I'm no advocate of Brendan Rodgers.  There are have been several articles and podcasts that I've been on where I've slated, bemoaned, and even be-damned our former manager.

Finally Feeling Something with Liverpool FC Again

It's been far too long. 365 days make up a full year, yet it feels like it's a lot longer when it comes to football. It felt like forever since I've started watching football, learning the game from all aspects whilst sitting on the floor beside my dad as we watch the game on weekend...

Best and Worst of Recent Merseyside Derbies

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.

Mamadou Sakho – Laying the Foundations

A friend recently asked if I had a monthly reminder on my phone to put a tweet out about Sakho only having x amount of months left on his current deal. Sad to say I had to cancel that reminder now. Myself and many more Liverpool fans got their wish on Friday when it was...
