Liverpool 2 Sunderland 0

November 30, 2016

Somebody said as they left the game, “We made hard work of that” and it wasn’t far off the mark but the important thing was we won and despite Sunderland’s style we worked bloody hard. After the Watford game we said that not too many sides will give us the spaces we prefer and last week...

I’d like to start by thanking everyone who has helped in making this Fanzine reach the ripe old age of 21.  It’s a long list, too many to mention, but thanks again. Back in 1995 when I started this Fanzine the media, including the Liverpool Echo, had been suggesting Liverpool could/would win the title.  We’d destroyed...

Liverpool 6 Watford 1

This game spoke volumes for the current Liverpool side but it might have also sent out a message which might not be too our benefit in the future.  Unlike certain teams Watford came to play an open game and was simply picked off and went back down the Yellow Brick Road knowing six could have...

Liverpool 2 Tottenham 1

I was a bit surprised Jürgen decided to make 11 changes especially when looking back at the strength of the sides put out against Burton and Derby but it all worked out for the best.  I thought the team played well against an also much changed Spurs and we deserved the win.  Maybe it shows...

Liverpool 2 West Brom 1

October 23, 2016

West Brom’s ‘keeper was probably the Man of the Match yesterday, although our finishing might not have been as we would have hoped but there will always be days like that.  Fair to say Foster’s poor clearance helped us with the second goal but there was a bit of quality in the build up as...

Not long after arriving at Anfield, Jürgen Klopp expressed surprise and disappointment at supporters streaming out of Anfield with still a fair bit of time left.  Against Leicester City and Hull visiting supporters begged the question, “Is there a fire drill” - one of the many childish away anthems we too regularly hear.  I’ve suggested...

Liverpool 0 Manchester United 0

Red Faced Monday: After the Sky hype what a letdown.   In total agreement with The Kaiser that we should have done better and we need to get to grips with sides that just come for a point; West Brom won’t be much different.  Like we’ve said before the stats don’t mean a thing, the result...

Swansea 1 Liverpool 2

Not having a ticket for the game at Swansea I had to watch it on the box. The first half was like watching an old scary film that I’d seen many times over. Every time Swansea got near our goal I shut my eyes. I was just grateful that we were only...

Liverpool 5 Hull 1

September 25, 2016

 

Posted at 10:23h in Uncategorized by

As we made our way home from this game we wondered if we’d just witnessed what we called ‘Professional Sympathy’. I’m sure if we’d kept the foot down we’d have surely gone close double figures. We looked that good and Hull looked that bad. The three goals we scored from open play...

Derby 0 Liverpool 3

September 22, 2016

 

Posted at 09:01h in Uncategorized by

I thought we just did what we had to do against Derby and don’t think we ever needed to get out of second gear. We scored two quality goals but for some reason in the build up to the third the contribution by Lucas was seemingly missed by the Sky crews. He started...
