Another hard way or the highway victory and Liverpool are through to the Europa League Group stages after a nervy fight to the finish in ever so welcoming Turkey. We haven’t beaten a Turkish team at home since Jesus Christ was a small boy and by half time I thought we were going to continue [...]

All the Way from Turkey, it’s TRABZONSPOR!

Midweek Champions League games never bothered anyone before. No one bitched when we had to go to Germany, Spain or France midweek to face Bayern Leverkusen, Barcelona or Marseilles. Why are we bitching about the Europa League again? The locations might be slightly less glamourous, the competition is supposedly not as fierce, the fixtures aren’t [...]
Liverpool Reach Europa League Playoffs…..

Now that was a little too simple, wasn’t it? I hate to put it down to inferior, although persistent, opposition but that was a tale of two sides. A 4-0 aggregate scoreline and Liverpool are through to what’s known as the Playoff Round of the Europa League. A cracking header from the resurgent David Ngog [...]
Torres Pledges Allegiance Before Rabotnicki Clash…..

Could you be any happier? Put your fucking hands in the air for Fernando Torres. He may have kept his mouth shut to the point that we were all ready to scream but the words “best club in the country” and “loyalty and commitment” are music to our collective ears. He might be playing for [...]
Ngog Cleans Up Against Robotnicki…..

It might be July and it just might be the Europa League but it’s smiles all around today. Serious doubts were expressed before opening our European campaign in friendly old Macedonia but a 2-0 scoreline against Rabotnicki and new boss Roy Hodgsons first win in the Liverpool dugout brings some much needed relief. What basically [...]
A Win is a Win, Even if You Don’t Break a Sweat

Crushing West Ham 3 – 0 definitely wasn’t one of our best looking performances, but it got the job done. It is hard to get too excited about this win because the opposition looked like a team on the verge of being relegated. Oh wait, they are. There were a number of positives to take [...]
Ain’t No Rest for the Wicked Until We Close Our Eyes for Good

Wow! I haven’t written one of these in a while. That’s what happens when your cohort takes off to some godforsaken communist country to indulge in whatever drunken debauchery that is available. If you want a real match preview, I’d goto Nate’s site. If you want something less informative, keep reading. I have trouble thinking [...]

The doctor says I need to eat more fruits and vegetables. So, to placate my health care practitioner, I’m going to drink a quart of wine for lunch. Who am I to ignore the advice of a trained medical professional? After the scoreless draw today at Anfield, I don’t think even the good doctor would [...]
