Concentrate On The League

March 12, 2025

 

Posted at 08:14h in Uncategorized by

"Concentrate on the league" is what a lot of clubs and fans say when getting knocked out of Cups. Mind you, they're usually clubs and fans looking at the league from a different perspective to Liverpool. Now we're out of Europe, beaten on penalties by a PSG team that had looked fitter, faster and better...

Another Stress Filled Afternoon

March 9, 2025

 

Posted at 09:18h in Uncategorized by

We were playing one of the worst teams the Premier Division has seen if you look at Southampton's record.  So at halftime they'd been better than us and didn't look like the worst team in the league, they deserved to be ahead. Cite what you will but that first half was unacceptable. Three changes at...

Daylight Robbery In Paris At Night

March 6, 2025

All I can say after last night is, Ali, Ali, Ali - the greatest. And if Harvey Elliott wants to be adopted give the Kop a shout. It's going to be just as tough next week & we'll have to be there to help the boys. I don't think Harvey has had a fair crack...

Another Step Towards The Promised Land

February 27, 2025

 

Posted at 07:51h in Uncategorized by

Yes, another step towards the Promised Land. Like against Manchester City, we controlled huge chunks of the game against The Toon. This is how we were playing back in October/November. Szobo & Mac Allister look in the form of their Liverpool lives and Mo is the wizard of dribble. If you bought a Fanzine outside...

A Weekend In Paradise #2

February 24, 2025

 

Posted at 09:47h in Uncategorized by

Two five-year olds were taken into Liverpool for the first time on Sunday, nothing to do with football but my desire to introduce them to the Eternal City. I was on edge thinking about what was going on elsewhere.  Our game was just starting when we dropped them back home and why is it that...

A Weekend In Paradise #1

February 24, 2025

 

Posted at 09:39h in Uncategorized by

I was out all Saturday afternoon with our twin granddaughters. At just after 5pm I had a spare minute to check the BBC Sports Page on my phone. Arsenal beaten by West Ham.  A sort well hidden air punch followed.  Of course, it wouldn't mean quite as much if we had a bad afternoon in...

No Case For The Defence

February 20, 2025

 

Posted at 07:44h in Uncategorized by

A point gained at Villa or a point dropped? Glass half empty or half full.  Mo, as usual, scores as does TAA. We go ahead, then have to fight back. Another two goals conceded so that's 18 conceded in 13 games.  Does the defence have a case or not?...

Editorial Issue 310

February 19, 2025

 

Posted at 15:53h in Uncategorized by

Welcome to Issue 310 of Red All Over The Land. I know the days of when you could work your life out once the fixture list was published died with the dinosaur but when you’re the editor of a Fanzine the fixture list now can drive you to drink.  Or in my case a short walk...

Tired & Weary

February 17, 2025

 

Posted at 08:48h in Uncategorized by

Okay, we beat Wolves but looked both tired and weary in doing so.  It was possibly the worst we've played all season in the league, certainly since Forest beat us. The goals from Diaz and Mo gave us what some saw as a comfortable two goal lead at halftime, but in some ways it flattered...

One Last Night In The Madhouse

February 13, 2025

 

Posted at 10:05h in Uncategorized by

This was one last night in the madhouse.  All the stuff at the end was crazy and will be remembered more than the game. Michael Oliver knows he had a bad night but in all honesty, we didn't play anywhere near our now expected level. We probably didn't deserve to win and we certainly didn't...
