Flashbacks

November 6, 2023

 

Posted at 08:43h in Uncategorized by

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

 

Posted at 07:45h in Uncategorized by

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

 

Posted at 09:01h in Uncategorized by

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

 

Posted at 09:05h in Uncategorized by

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...

Keegan Night, Raffle & Auction

October 9, 2023

 

Posted at 10:08h in Uncategorized by

Tickets for the Kevin Keegan night are selling slowly but surely and we’re hopeful of a full house. We’re accumulating some good auction lots and raffle prizes and tickets for the raffle can be purchased from the link on this website. We don’t have just Kevin Keegan but also George Sephton who made his debut as...

Take A Break

October 9, 2023

 

Posted at 10:01h in Uncategorized by

No doubting the two-all draw with Brighton was a disappointing result. Going a goal down these days is nothing new and neither is watching Liverpool fight back to get ahead, which they did, thanks to two goals from Mo. Only a Brighton came back to square things up and we had to settle for a...

Back To Football

October 6, 2023

 

Posted at 07:07h in Uncategorized by

Thankfully it was back to football for the visit of Belgium side Union St. G. Their fans were brilliant. Their team made it hard work. Their goalkeeper man of the match but we won. That’s all we wanted to do. Not a great game but we’re probably two wins from qualifying for the next...

Incompetent Or Corrupt

October 1, 2023

 

Posted at 09:41h in Uncategorized by

Incompetence or corruption? That’s a question we need answering after the performance of the match officials and the VAR gang when Liverpool played Spurs. An own goal in the final seconds to rob us of a deserved point was gut wrenching. We were better than Spurs with 10 men, as good as Spurs with nine....

Déjà vu

September 28, 2023

 

Posted at 08:35h in Uncategorized by

We go one down after just a couple of minutes and that sense of déjà vu comes calling. Against Leicester for 45-minutes we looked disjointed. We were on top, but something was missing. Leicester defended reasonably well but we could, should, have scored but we didn’t so as everyone goes for their halftime refreshments the...
