Job Done Feet Up Until March

December 1, 2023

 

We had to win because we didn't want this Europa Cup thing dragging on any longer. Win we did. To be honest 4-0 should have been more, a lot more but it's a case of Job Done and as far as the Europa League is concerned, feet up until March. Diaz, Gakpo [2] and Mo...

The Scouser In Our Team

November 25, 2023

 

Before the game I said a point against the Champions at The Etihad would be a good point. Thanks to TAA the Scouser in our team we did just that. We could have won, we could have lost. Take the point and smile all the way home....

Editorial Issue 297

November 22, 2023

 

Welcome to Issue 298 of Red All Over The Land. The games we cover in this Issue produced a mixed bag of results.  We all hoped that things like the performance at Luton and again in Toulouse were a thing of the past but evidently not.  We got out of Luton with a point and in...

Beating Bees

November 22, 2023

 

Apologies. I was sidetracked so didn't get this updated after the Brentford game. No need to comment as it was over 10-days ago....

More Flashbacks

November 10, 2023

 

The defeat against Toulouse wasn't what we expected. Another poor team performance and more signs that things could be going pear shaped. No point in saying anything else....

Flashbacks

November 6, 2023

 

We were overwhelming favourites to beat struggling Luton Town. Just like we were expected to win at a few grounds last season. Only we didn't. A one-all draw represents two massive points dropped. Scoring in the final moments of the game saved only total embarrassment but the goal meant so much to Luis Diaz for...

Blowing In The Wind

November 2, 2023

 

There was a wild win blowing down on the south coast of England and Liverpool had to play an away Cup-tie in it.  Same for both sides, obviously and both Bournemouth and Liverpool gave it their best shot. As is his way, Jürgen made eight changes and what is now becoming known as the midweek...

Keep Ball

October 30, 2023

 

This was an exhibition of ‘keep ball.’ Forest did well to keep the scoreline to 3-0.  They only got into the game in the last ten minutes or so when we were already on ‘warm down.’ When Jota got the first you figured a second would soon follow and it did from the current darling...

Memories Are Made Of This

October 27, 2023

 

One more win will see us in the knockout stages of the Europa League. The 5-1 win against Toulouse won’t live long in the memory of the fans but it might do for Luke Chambers, Calum Scanlon, and James McConnell.  Three Academy lads who were given a taste of European football at Anfield. Chambers making...

Blues Get The Blues [Again]

October 22, 2023

 

It wasn’t pretty and we struggled to break down both an eleven-man and ten-man Everton side and it needed a penalty awarded by VAR to give us the advantage.  Mo duly despatched it. The second goal came well into the nine minutes of added time [VAR, subs and Everton time wasting] when we broke away...
