The News Desk doesn’t believe in ghosts or apparitions or any other thing that goes bump in the night but strange images of Roy Hodsgon have been showing up on banners in the Kop and now our whole World has been thrown topsy-turvey. Need an explanation? I’d be asking Sky Sports if I were you. [...]

Kuyt Confirmed Out for 4 Weeks
Posted: 7th September 2010 by steven. in NewsTags: Dirk Kuyt, Europa League Group Stages, injuries
Everyone is entitled to a little bitch and witch session now and again and the News Desk is no different. We had a moan over a cup of tea this afternoon after reading on the Internets that Dirk Kuyt is confirmed to be out for the next 4 weeks after his training ground incident. For [...]
Dirk Kuyt Injury Concern for Liverpool
Posted: 6th September 2010 by steven. in NewsTags: Dirk Kuyt, injuries, International Break
Well, we haven’t got that cease and desist letter we were waiting for but something even worse came in on the fax machine this morning. Dirk Kuyt is on his way back to Melwood with a shoulder injury sustained while on International duty with the Netherlands. The News Desk can’t confirm exactly how our fearless Dutchman hurt [...]
Liverpool FC Trademark the Liver Bird
Posted: 5th September 2010 by steven. in NewsTags: club badge, legal team
The News Desk has been checking the fax machine all morning for a cease and desist letter from Liverpool FC for using their now trademarked Liver Bird on our website. The club had unsuccessfully attempted to trademark what is widely regarded as the symbol of the city for a number of years despite concerns from [...]
Carragher Scores Two as Liverpool Trounce Everton
Posted: 4th September 2010 by steven. in NewsTags: Everton, Jamie Carragher, Luis Garcia, testimonial
The News Desk needed a minute after writing that headline. To think that Carragher would score twice, once for his own team and once for the Bluenoses, makes everything kind of Twilight Zonish. 14 years with Liverpool and a star studded testimonial as the rest of the footballing world is playing for their respective countries. [...]

Silly Season Ends With Only a Laugh or Two
Posted: 31st August 2010 by steven. in NewsTags: Damien Plessis, Lauri Dalle Valle, Mario Gomez, Nabil El-Zhar, Paul Konchesky, Ryan Babel, transfer news
The News Desk does is sick of doing the transfer window Hokey-Cokey. All of that players in and players out and turning oneself around was getting tiresome so this day has been marked on our calendar, conveniently hung beside the desk, for quite some time. The last day wouldn’t be exciting, or excruciatingly silly, without [...]
Reds Learn Europa League Future as Macherano Hits the Bricks
Posted: 27th August 2010 by steven. in NewsTags: Europa League Group Stages, Javier Macherano, transfer news
If there’s one thing the News Desk loves, it’s liquid lunches. A pint of Black Gold and some fries on a Friday. Everything was skipping along just fine until Liverpool ended up in Group K without Javier Macherano. Napoli, Steaua Bucharest and Utrecht, who we faced last year, join us in the Group. For those [...]
