HAD a brief snooze. Saw Torres score a hat-trick. Chelsea’s Torres. Was I still asleep? Went out. The car said it was three degrees and flashed its warning about ice. There were bits of tree all over the road, at least in the bits of road that weren’t under water, and it’s May in a couple of days. Maybe I […]

On April 15th 1989 an FA Cup semi-final between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest was, like yesterday, like any semi-final, the cause of much anticipation and excitement for supporters of the two teams involved. It wasn’t quite as much of an early start as yesterday – instead of heading 200 miles to Wembley for a 12.30 kick-off the 1989 semi was […]

PEPE REINA ran to Brad Jones to congratulate him at the end of today’s FA Cup Semi-final, one of many signs of the obvious camaraderie on display at Anfield, not to mention the popularity the Australian international has with his team mates.

Brad Jones is the […]

THERE was a sense that something had to change before too long but Damien Comolli’s departure wasn’t expected today, two days before the FA Cup semi-final, and Comolli’s departure wasn’t necessarily seen by all as the change that needed to be made or the one that would be made.

STEPHEN FRY’S QI sidekick, former star of Jonathan Creek, Arsenal fan. Alan Davies is probably known for more than that but without getting Wikipedia out that’s enough to introduce him. The reason he’s getting mentioned on here in the first place is because of comments he made on a podcast he does, “The Tuesday Club”. The podcast is by – and […]

Fans might claim to be embarrassed by Liverpool’s recent form but supporters are more likely to be unhappy and thinking of whatever ways they can to help get behind the team and bring about a return to winning ways. Liverpool play host to Aston Villa today and Kenny Dalglish has made a number of changes to the side that lost […]
