Barry who?

Now that the season is up and running and we are doing well, I was thinking, what would the situation be like now if we had signed Gareth Barry in the summer? Looking at Alonso, he is playing very well right now and I do not think that Barry would have been playing better than Alonso is currently. I have not watched much of Villa...

Stepping Out Of Defence

Something caught my eye whilst I was watching the Premiership games this weekend and I thought I would share it with you this morning. I have seen, not only this season but in the past, how effective it is to have a central defender who is able to step out of the defensive line and provide an attacking option. The attacking option...

Everton 0 – Liverpool 2

How I wish I was on Merseyside tonight as we now have the bragging rights! It always feels good to get one over the Toffees and I firmly believe now after todays game that we have the best two teams on Merseyside as Shanks said, “Liverpool and Liverpool Reserves”. I seriously think that our reserve team could beat the...

Everton v Liverpool – Sat 27th Sep KO 12:45

So the 179th Merseyside Derby is pending for the City of Liverpool. Scouse unity is broken in the city tomorrow as Mothers and Fathers, brothers and sisters, friends and workmates pull on their jerseys and fall in behind either the Red or Blue section of the community. So who will come out on top and claim the bragging rights for...

Liverpool to swoop for Gareth Bale?

Reports this morning suggest that Liverpool could be making a bid for Tottenham defender, Gareth Bale in the January transfer window. Spurs must hate the sight of Liverpool now after we took their prized asset, Robbie Keane away from them and now we may be going back to London with a £15m bid for Bale. A lot has been said about...

You Don’t Know What Yer Doin !!

Once again as we have come to expect we have witnessed another fine performance by the men in black over the weekend. The standard of football and the EPL itself is being touted as the best league in the world but can somebody explain why we seem to have the worst officials. A ref assistant and the main mad man in the middle...

Liverpool 0 – Stoke 0

Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, I was unable to see the match today. What I gather is that we dominated and yet failed to make our chances count, as is the story for us so many times over the past few seasons. To be quite honest, it’s not acceptable with the level of talent we now have in our squad and on the...

Liverpool V Stoke – Sat 20th Sep KO 1500

Ok, here we go again. As per usual the games are coming thick and fast and as soon as you seem to have grabbed a breath another match looms on the horison. So Stoke come to Anfield on Saturday since November 2000 when they were thumped 8-0 in the Worthington (or as it was fondly renamed the Worthless Cup) when R.Folwer bagged a...

Three Cheers

I hope this is right but I have heard it through the “Rons Crib” grapevine that today it is Ron’s, our own Captain Fantastics birthday. Let me be the first from Our Kop to wish him a Happy Birthday with a little Irish Blessing - May the winds of fortune sail you, May you sail a gentle sea, May it always be the...

Capitaine Fantastique

Congratulations to Rafa and his merry men last night for a great away win and an opening three points in this year ECL program. it was never going to be an easy match with all pundits and Rafa getting it right that Marseille were a vastly improved side from last year and it was not going to be another 0-4 reverse. The Stade...
