“He’s big and he’s fucking hard.”
He was our Captain. He was our Leader. He was our “Never-Miss-Set-Piece-Taker.” Now, he is our biggest regret.
When Gerrard left for LA Galaxy, I was pleased. I was excited to see a new team, a new Captain, going in a new direction.
Maybe the disappointment of the 14/15 season was...
This wasn't heavy metal football, this was more an acoustic set with a beginner.
We've all experienced it at some point in our lives and if you've not personally then you a family member or friend most certainly has. You're in a car that's been fairly good to you over the years, you stick the...
Raheem Sterling had burnt just about every bridge between Liverpool and Manchester when he finally got his £49m transfer in the Summer. It was galling for many Liverpool fans to see a him leave in such disrespectful circumstances: Sterling was our wonderkid, our future football superstar and current Nivea skincare star, who we had...
During my 21 years on the planet, the Liverpool fanbase has always been a divergent lot. Chasms of opinion have existed over matters both trivial and sincere. In the age of Football Twitter the various factions of Liverpool support have become increasingly clear and ghettoised, united and divided by opinions on various issues of support,...
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...
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...
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...
I can pretty much pinpoint the moment when I thought to myself ‘fuck me we’re back’. Tucked away in the far corner of a cosy Whitehaven golf club for my nephews christening, surrounded by family, pint in hand, transfixed by that most beautiful of things - the Reds in full flow. Christmas was a...
In the wake of Steven Gerrard’s revelation that he would have stayed at Liverpool had he been offered a job with the coaching staff, Neil Poole explains in simple terms why he should have been given the opportunity.
In the book Animal Farm, there’s a cart horse called Boxer. He works his whole life for...
As far back as I can remember I've loved football. As a child, it was playing Sunday League, Five a side, Headers and Volley's and no matter the weather, I'd always take hours of pleasure practising Keepie Uppies in the garden. I'd play anytime and anywhere, all I needed was something to kick; whether...
