This summer was supposed to be a big one for those in the Red of Liverpool FC. Well, no one could doubt it was. It was a big pay day for the owners and a big detriment to the squad as a whole. Besides my unmasked apprehension of this summers wheeling and dealing, now that [...]

A Season Preview; Or: What Would We Be Without Wishful Thinking?
Posted: 12th August 2010 by steven. in EditorialTags: Season Preview
It hurts being outside of the Big Four. For years it was seen as our rightful place. Our history, our heritage, our prestige all guaranteed we’d be up there with the top boys.

I know you know it’s over and don’t need another damn sob story about Rafa Benitez. For all his genius, he had just as many faults. He might have left with a rather impressive record but in this league your only as good as your last season. Throughout the coming days, the high points will [...]
