Editorial Issue 322 9 Apr 2026 - Welcome to Issue 322 of Red All Over The Land. We can’t deny that since they became the custodians of Liverpool FC, FSG have done us proud. Most of what they’ve done for the club has been for the good of not just the club but also the supporters. However, the rise in line with inflation over the next three years regarding ticket prices has been, rightly, seen as a kick in the teeth. The response of such as the Spirit of Shankly and others is covered in detail elsewhere in this issue. However, the first action has been announced and that is, NOT ANOTHER POUND IN THE GROUND [See SoS comment]. That is just the starting point, there will… ...
PSG 2 Liverpool 0 9 Apr 2026 - Once again, totally outplayed and not a single shot on target. The 2-0 defeat against PSG leaves us with a mountain to climb but no doubt there will be references to Barca in 2019. Different team, different mentality, different manager. ...
Manchester City 4 Liverpool 0 4 Apr 2026 - Not much to say because a millions words have already been said and two of them would have been embarrassing and shambles. Not really much more to add. To see thousands of Liverpool fans stream out the ground with still half an hour left, said it all, ...
Red All Over YouTube 25 Mar 2026 - Red All Over YouTube is back tonight. Our principal guest is Paul Khan, chair of the SOS. We will be talking ticket pricing, Liverpool FC & now, of course, Mo. We go live from 6.30 & the link is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEI-wbW2lhU. The links remain for some time if you can’t watch us live. ...
Brighton 2 Liverpool 1 25 Mar 2026 - I was sitting in a beachside restaurant watching fans of both sides strolling around in the warm spring sunshine. Only these were fans of the local side Cadiz and their Andalusian rivals Malaga ahead of their Spanish Second division game. Back home Liverpool went to Brighton on the back of the win against Galatasaray and were just as abject as they had been against Spurs. Ali and Mo missing through injury, Hugo off after a few minutes instead of sending on Chiesa, the only other striker on the bench Arne went for Curtis Jones, another midfielder. That dream of fifth only lives on because Chelsea would be just as bad later against Everton but there’s now a few others eyeing… ...
Liverpool 4 Galatasaray 0 25 Mar 2026 - Before the game it felt as if the apathy from the Spurs game was still there. After the game there was exultation. In between Liverpool gave the performance we wanted and gained themselves a place in the last eight against PSG who, as we know, knocked us out last season. Galatasaray fell apart in the second half, and we did to them what a Premier League side should do against a Turkish side. At the end there was joy and we had songs to sing. ...
Liverpool 1 Spurs 1 16 Mar 2026 - One more miserable day to add to the current catalogue. Spurs surely came to Anfield thinking another defeat was on the cards, after all they had almost a complete team missing yet they showed more passion and desire, energy and effort than Liverpool. Just as the board was going up for another five minutes the villain of the peace, Richarlison scored the equaliser. Was anybody honestly surprised? Howls of derision greeted the final whistle as Tottenham celebrated a valuable point and our players slunk off to the sanctuary of the dressing room. The fabulous free kick that SZOBO scored had already been forgotten and did anyone in the ground think we looked capable of scoring another? Something is visibly wrong,… ...
Editorial Issue 321 11 Mar 2026 - Welcome to Issue 321 of Red All Over The Land. It’s been over six weeks since the last issue came out for the game v Qarabag. I can’t remember the last time we went so long without publishing a new issue. Night games are a pain especially when accompanied by lousy weather or like against Manchester City the make-up of the crowd were not the type who would know what a Fanzine represents let alone buy a copy. I’m now hoping for dry weather and a more receptive fan turn out between now and the season end. The future of Red All Over The Land is hanging in the balance. We stand on the side of genuine supporters but there… ...
Galatasaray 1 Liverpool 0 11 Mar 2026 - Back in the dark ages a 1-0 defeat away from home in Europe was deemed a decent result and most of the time it would be turned round in the home leg. This Liverpool team doesn’t offer a lot of hope though. For the second time this season we suffered a 1-0 defeat against Galatasaray in Istanbul and there wasn’t a lot to get too excited about. Disorganised at the back, a sterile midfield and a front line that didn’t cause too many problems for the opposition. Thankfully the deficit is just one goal, so we know what we must do and that is to show more passion than we did in Istanbul. ...
Wolves 1 Liverpool 3 7 Mar 2026 - Some reports suggested beating Wolves in the FA Cup three days after the shocking showing and loss in the league was revenge. Nothing can be further from the truth. This was, maybe, compensation and for some of us progress in the FA Cup matters. The first half wasn’t too different to some other performances but the second half was a lot better. Robbo’s goal was a reminder of just how good a player he still is, laying on the second for Mo confirmed it. Curtis scored for the second successive Cup game and one of the star performers was Rio Ngumoha. I will wait for the draw sometime on Monday night hoping for a home draw, not worried about who… ...
