Liverpool 3 Manchester City 1

November 11, 2019

They won't be talking about the football again will they? Pep throws a wobbly so it's all about VAR.  This week we supposedly benefited. Last week we didn't. Who cares. Last week we still won, today we won again. Maybe we cope with VAR better than others? Fab goal from Fab though & a cross...

The Kid That Sparkles

November 8, 2019

This is a story based on actual events. 16 year old Boy Wonder Brian Cassidy has the footballing skills to join the mega-rich elite of Premier league stardom and to leave behind the brutal realities of a rundown council estate lifestyle...

Liverpool 2 Genk 1

November 6, 2019

As European Nights go, this was a damp squib which wasn't what anybody wanted on bonfire night. Poor all round performance but we got the right result [again] and go top of the group. The crowd were flatter than the team even when Gini scored an early goal it didn't lift the assembled throng. The...

Aston Villa 1 Liverpool 2

November 3, 2019

How do we do it? Five minutes left and we looked doomed. One down and just not anywhere near the level required or expected. Robbo nets and hope comes on the horizon. Maybe a minute or so of added time left and Sadio glances in from a TAA corner. Jubilation, delight and the fireworks go...

Liverpool 5 Arsenal 5 Liverpool won 5-4 on pens

October 31, 2019

What a night. Some awful defending but some great second half goals and then a penalty shoot out to get us home and into a fixture jam. Price of fame. An own goal put us one up but then we were 3-1 down before what looked a generous penalty award and Milner did what he...

Accrington Stanley 5 Liverpool Under 21’s 2

October 30, 2019

Dreams of a long run in what was called the Leasing.com trophy came to an end at the Wham Stadium in Accrington. Elijah Dixon-Bonner gave the Reds an early lead but they were to be overwhelmed by the stronger home outfit. Layton Stewart scored a late consolation but by then the home outfit had netted...

Liverpool 2 Tottenham 1

October 28, 2019

Another test of the heart. One down before the lads on the Kop had even had time to lower their banners and flags and a goalkeeper who seemed determind to keep us at bay when we attacked Alamo style. Thank the gods we broke their resistance with a rarity from Jordan Henderson and a Mo...

Editorial 256

October 24, 2019

Welcome to Issue 256 of Red All Over The Land. Circumstances meant I had to get this issue finished before the trip to Old Trafford.  Therefore we can only mention the game briefly here.  Easy to sum up the one-all draw.  It was probably the worst we’ve played all year, but we deserved the point.  VAR...

Genk 1 Liverpool 4

October 24, 2019

An away Group win at last; feels a whole lot better.  Great the Ox showed a little more of what he brings to the table. The two goals will go a long way in his rehabilitation. Sadio and Mo finding the net and although Genk are far removed from the European elite, they'd only lost...
