Liverpool 4 Stoke 1

December 28, 2016

I suppose the only good thing about TV switching this game to suit themselves was the fact that we could let a few cobwebs clear after the Christmas Day binge and feast? After the ‘real’ Boxing Day results we were again left playing catch up as everybody who was expected to win, won. ...

Everton 0 Liverpool 1

Mayhem & Misery On Mersey Monday: I don’t enjoy the ‘derby’ the way I used to. Most of that is down to the change of attitude aided and abetted by the artificial Sky-Hype. ‘Mersey Monday’ they branded this one which showed they don’t learn too much down at SSNHQ. Remember ‘Red Monday’...

‘Boro 0 Liverpool 2

December 20, 2016

 

Posted at 10:28h in Uncategorized by

After the past couple of games I travelled to Middlesbrough feeling some apprehension and when you’re feeling a bit down Middlesbrough isn’t the best place to go. I was once told by someone who, because of work, had to reside on Teesside that if Depression was a country, Middlesbrough would be its capital. ...

Liverpool 2 West Ham 2

December 12, 2016

If I arrived at the ground feeling full of Christmas cheer I didn’t leave it feeling the same way. Despite the almost perfect start we couldn’t build on it, which was a pity because I felt West Ham might have caved in but instead they grew in stature and started causing a few problems...

Editorial Issue 228

December 10, 2016

 

Posted at 12:22h in Uncategorized by

Unfortunately I’m doing this editorial after the shambles down at Bournemouth. I initially put it together minutes after the final whistle before coming back to it twenty-four hours later. Only twenty-four hours later, I’m still in a state of shock. After so much good football this season it was a sorry state of affairs...

Liverpool 2 Leeds 0

November 30, 2016

 

Posted at 10:44h in Uncategorized by

The big screens that dominate the fan Zone around Paisley Park focused on our past triumphs against Leeds United starting with the one in 1965. On a night where brass monkeys wouldn’t dared venture out for fear of balls freezing off 52,000 ventured to Anfield to witness something of a reunion in the League...

Liverpool 2 Sunderland 0

November 30, 2016

 

Posted at 10:43h in Uncategorized by

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...

Editorial 227

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

November 7, 2016

 

Posted at 14:17h in Uncategorized by

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

October 26, 2016

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...
