Oh What A Night

April 20, 2022

 

To beat Manchester United is always special but to beat them in the way we did made it even more special. 4-0 said it all apart from the fact it could have five or six. All the goals were class, the Diaz opener, pure football, the two from Mo showed he's back and Sadio's was...

Wembley Thrice

April 20, 2022

 

Reaching the FA Cup final means a lot. To play as we did in the first half was just brilliant and the goals from Sadio following Ibram Konate's opener had our end singing. They only came back because we slowed down but the score line of 3-2 flattered only them. For us, Wembley thrice....

All Aboard The Yellow Submarine

April 14, 2022

 

We’ve seen some historic European Nights at Anfield but the three-all draw with Benfica was different. Most of the night the Kop sang the new Jürgen song in brilliant fashion and watching from my seat in the Lower Kenny it looked and sounded brilliant. On the pitch we were either pretty good or bad. Scored...

The Greatest

April 13, 2022

 

Sorry for the delay, getting either overworked or absent minded.  The draw at Manchester City meant we were still a point adrift with seven games to play. A draw wasn't a bad result because we had to come from behind twice.  Dioga and Sadio scoring. Some said this was a game between the two greatest...

Eagles Brought Down

April 6, 2022

 

Beating Benfica in Lisbon 3-1 has given us a cushion for next week, but we can't take anything for granted because after winning in Milan Inter still gave us a scare. We could have scored more but the goals from Konate; Sadio and Luis Diaz saw us to a good win and the team stays...

We Can Only Win

April 2, 2022

 

Jürgen called for noise, and he got it. We got the points, but we didn’t play anywhere near our best but credit Watford for that. The Owl did himself no favours when at Anfield, but he knows how to set up a team to defend. They even had a couple of chances but for one...

Editorial Issue 282

March 28, 2022

 

Welcome to Issue 282 of Red All Over The Land. The debate about the semi-final gets mentioned in the Postscript but just to say it’s typical FA incompetence and ignorance. Not been a bad few weeks, has it? Just glancing at what lies ahead in April is both exciting and frightening. I can’t recall anything like...

The Forest Did Fall

March 23, 2022

 

Another late update.  Beating Nottingham Forest 1-0 away in the FA Cup set up a semi final against the billionaires of Manchester [not United of course]. We didn't play anything like we have done in recent months but maybe this performance mirroed our FA Cup form - just do enough. Dioga didn't have his best...

Knockin’ On The Door

March 17, 2022

 

I expected Arsenal to push us, after all they're the other form team in The Premier.  They did push us but Diogo got back on the scoresheet before he and Luis Diaz were given a rest as the Boss sent on Bobby & Mo. Bobby obliged with the goal that gave us the space we...
