Editorial Issue 325

September 1, 2026

 

Welcome to Issue 325 of Red All Over The Land. I’ve got to make a confession because up until a month or so ago all I knew about Amazon was that they delivered parcels but I’ve never placed an order with them although the wife has. If you’d mentioned Jeff Bezos was coming to Liverpool I’d...

Joining Graham Mack and JJP tonight for this special issue is the Voice of Anfield George Sephton and tonight is presentation night. However, we will talk about football, Fanzines and transfers.

Rescue Act But No Victors

August 29, 2026

 

From what I hear one of the minority investors turned up at Anfield to watch the Forest game.  I wonder if he could convince the club that we need to be major investors in a few defenders along with someone who can do a defensive job in midfield.  Just a thought. Forest were the better side by a long...

Spurs At Home In The League Cup

August 27, 2026

 

You can't complain when you get a home draw in the League Cup although I was hoping for Fleetwood. The usual practice would be to field the shadow squad but as things are I don't think we've got one. Anyway, positive time, Wembley, here we come. ...

Andoni Needs A Little Help From His Friends

August 23, 2026

 

We didn’t exactly relight the ring of fire, but we didn’t extinguish it either. It was an emotional day up on the Toon and I for one, will happily take a point. Whether we deserved it is down to others so if you don’t mind, I’ll leave it to the experts, the non-experts and the...

Relight The Ring Of Fire

August 21, 2026

 

The signings the fans wanted and expected/demanded haven’t materialised and the rumoured signings remain just rumours. Andoni Iraola has done his first pre-match press conference as Liverpool supremo, so I watched and listened to every word.  It was somewhat refreshing to hear him say “We’re in a good place” and there was no catalogue of injuries to...

Pre-Season Is Over

August 18, 2026

 

Seven games played, if you include the shortened version played behind closed doors at Kirkby. Two wins in America and one defeat. Two games at Anfield saw a loss against Monaco and a win against Como while the workout at Kirkby was a thrilling 0-0. Pre-season results only matter if you win, if you lose,...

Editorial 324

July 31, 2026

 

Welcome to issue 324 of Red All Over The Land. At the final home game of last season there seemed an air of inevitability that Arne Slot would be leaving.  Within a week the feeling became fact.  The managerial change [forget all the head coach stuff] does obviously get mentioned in this issue but I decided...

Andoni Iraola

June 7, 2026

 

A belated comment on the appointment of our latest manager Andoni Iraola. He faces a big task coming to Liverpool from Bournemouth where not only are the expectations a mountain higher so too, are the demands. Whether he wants to or not, he’ll be thrust into a spotlight he’s never previously been in and to...
