  1. Ended up getting a free ticket at late notice for an evening with Peter Reid last night. Can only say he was an absolute gent, had a photo with anyone who wanted one, signed loads of autographs, wasn’t bitter in the slightest and was very complimentary about us both in the 80’s and now. He absolutely nailed the free bar mind!

  4. Not a full round of fixtures as some clubs are on their winter break but there were a fair few games this weekend and most of the results went fairly well for us. There was one exception of course, the fucking cheating cunts pulled within two points of us at the top and I’m not gonna lie, I’ve got this sense of burning injustice welling up inside me already. If we lose out to them by a point or two again, after what happened at Spurs and with them having 115 charges hanging over them seemingly indefinitely (I know a date has been set, but their lawyers will find a way to get an extension) while other clubs who have done far less serious crimes are being punished…. I don’t know what I’ll do, but it will be hard to even think about carrying on following this fucking joke of a sport. I’m not taking their win at Newcastle very well at all, but it’s not about that particular game. It’s everything. They’ve cheated for a decade now and completely distorted the league, and even though everyone knows about it they’re just allowed to carry on winning titles at the expense of us and others. Other clubs break the rules and it’s dealt with fairly swiftly, but they’ve broken so many rules they’re basically getting away scot free. By the time they eventually have to answer for what they’ve done, Guardiola and most of the players will have filled their trophy cabinets and won’t give a fuck what happens. And we’ll be left looking at a handful of second placed finishes that should be first place because we were playing by the rules and those cunts weren’t. I fucking despise City with every fibre of my being. I hated United when they were winning everything but it was completely different. I was pretty pissed off with us for not being able to do anything about it and there was a grudging respect there as well as a hint of jealousy. I’m in no way shape or form jealous of anything when it comes to City, I have no respect for their ‘achievements’ and nothing in this world would make me happier than if they were thrown out of professional football and made to play Sunday League. I hate them so much I can’t even take any consolation in the fact it was Newcastle whose hearts they broke. I didn’t watch the game but I had Goldbridge’s live watch along on. He kept referencing their cheating, the 115 charges and also how Rodri seems to be immune from a second yellow card. Basically all the stuff that we say about City, he’s saying. It’s refreshing to hear someone who isn’t a Liverpool fan calling out this shit. If Newcastle had managed to hold onto their 2-1 lead it would have given us such an enormous boost for next week. A five point cushion with them still having to come to Anfield would have been a pretty strong position. Now it’s two fucking points and De Bruyne is back, and the Blobfish robot up front won’t be out for too much longer either. It feels ominous. The PL hate City, I have no doubt about that, as they have completely tarnished the integrity of the competition. The problem is PGMOL fucking love them. No wonder, when half of the refs are being paid for side gigs by City’s chairman. The PL needs to step in here and tell Webb to sort this shit out, because if we get down to the last couple of games and it’s neck and neck or we are just a point behind them, that Spurs debacle is going to loom very large. The time to act is now, the PL need to put pressure on Webb to sort this shit out. Cheats shouldn’t prosper. The only thing I saw from this game was Bernardo Silva’s goal and that was only because Twitter exploded about it. “Goal of the season” “Stop that Bernardo Silva” “what a baller” and other such nauseating shit. I watched the clip of it, and it’s nothing special. I say it all the time, but that’s an Usher-esque finish, I used to score them virtually every week. It’s not that hard. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a nice goal and a tidy little finish, I’m just saying that anyone hyping that up as goal of the season knows nothing about finishing. It’s not even goal of the weekend, let alone the season. The only other thing I have to say about this is “fuck Kevin De Bruyne and his stupid haircut|”. There was a time when he was the only thing about City I didn’t hate, but fuck all that. I hate him as much I hate the rest of them now. Fuck him and his stupid Prince Harry face.

Polished off my last third of a litre of Disaranno from 3-5pm when nobody else was drinking, went out for tea and made solid progress through the cocktail menu. Boss time had by all. Got home, got one kid in bed after staying up ‘til 3am last night, all the others are over the road at the in-laws. I’ve just smoked a joint. I am a little bit mashed.

  9. The way they keep referring to "your man" without needing to explain which man they're talking about blows my mind. "Just been to see your man there. Now I'm off to see your man. What about you? I'm off to see your man then I'll be having a word with your man about your man." Are vee not men?

  10. It still blows my mind Hodgson lead England to the bottom of a World Group, somehow kept his job and then they promptly went on to be knocked out by Iceland in the following Euros, and all with his reputation intact. Especially considering Eriksson and Capello, in particular, were being lined up to get the Wicker Man for doing substantially better jobs. Pays to have friends in the press, I suppose.

  14. Those Krazyhouse bogs weren't up to much, Chris, but at least people used them rather than just slashing where they stood! I definitely remember old fellas getting passed down to the St John's at the front of the Kop. Lots of lost kids got passed back up as well - as Paul said, you'd sometimes land 20 feet or more from where you started when we scored a goal. When the Kop had re-settled, Dads would be shouting, or some bloke would lift a kid above his head and wait for someone to claim him. Steam is another thing I remember. Especially on a packed Kop for a midweek game in winter. I'll stop now before I go all jumpers for goalposts....

  15. I was too young to go on the old Kop. My first time was 95/96 I think. We beat Chelsea 5-1. Before then, from 89, my godfather had only taken me in the main stand and the brand new Centenary Stand. I've thought until quite recently I would have loved to have been in the old Kop. But stuff like this makes me think "nah you're alright ta!" I'm too soft. But then again, I spent my entire university years in The Krazyhouse on Wood St. so I'm very familiar with that feeling. And I loved that. At least if you went on the old Kop you wouldn't wake up next to something that looked like Danny De Vito in Batman Returns you thought was a double for Dita von Teese 6 hours previously..

It fries my brain that he calls out Coutts for removing his account, complains about it (considering he needed 5 million or whatever to be in it) and right wing dickheads without two shites to rub together are all up in arms on his behalf. Man of the people my arse. Frog faced racist cunt

  28. I'm two weeks into what has been diagnosed as calcific tendonitis in my shoulder. Had a twinge there for around a year or two and put it down to wear and tear of carrying the kids over the past ten years as they grew up. Couple of Sundays back I woke up with a pain in the shoulder and attributed it to sleeping funny. Woke up at 3am Monday morning in incredible pain but being a man didn't do anything about it. Struggled for a week on painkillers and sleeping on the couch sat upright until the shoulder completely froze and woke up last Sunday through the night in pain that took my breath away, so ended up being dropped off at A&E. One x-ray later and a large piece of calcium has built up in the shoulder joint which has resulted in my being unable to move my upper arm any more than an inch in any direction. Now on 500mg Naproxen, 30mg codeine and all the Deep Heat, Deep Freeze and patches you can shake a stick at. Hospital said I needed to be referred to Orthopedics by my GP who wouldn't refer me until I visited the physio and booked me in yesterday. Within 5 minutes the physio said I needed cortisone injections with the possibility of keyhole surgery in my shoulder. Prescribed me more painkillers as I "could be waiting a long time". Can't drive, working from home and lunch hour walks to clear my head. Not all bad.

  38. We are a weird team. We make the shittest of sides look like the hardest of work when in the previous few weeks they've been buried by a mediocre side. We look like a team that gifts chances away and is easy to break against yet we have one of the best defensive records in the league. I think i need to find out our results then watch the game knowing it and see if that gives a more honest reflection of how we perform rather than an anxiety, frustrated narrative I set myself.

  39. Loved the nostalgia, and particularly the comparisons made by Paul between the match in the 80s and today. I started going the match very young - from the late 70s. I have the full set of programmes from the 78/79 season. I was very fortunate. I started going without my dad and with my mates instead about the same time - mid-80s. Like yourself, Paul, I remember vividly those games when the crowd were chanting 20 minutes before kick off. That feeling of anticipation was so exciting. We were so good back then, the connection between the players and crowd was an unbreakable bond. They made our lives better and we loved them for it. In turn, they loved us for our unwavering support. Yes, EVERY player had a song. We'd sing it, and they'd acknowledge us. I always remember players like Lawro being gutted if we didn't get to his before we had to kick off. He seemed to be the player I recall being "missed out" having a clear chant. But if he'd managed to score a crucial goal away on the Wednesday or whatever, we'd have a go at a chant on the Saturday. Even if it was a quiet chant, the players would seemingly listen out for it and couldn't wait to acknowledge it! Nowadays, a lot of the players acknowledge their families who are in the hospitality parts of the Main Stand. I remember Phil Thompson used to wave to his brother in the Kop! Every match. But yes, there were downsides. The smell was awful, the fact that your socks were always wet when you got home, and the violence outside the ground. But these were all just seen as part of the deal of supporting Liverpool. I do envy you lads who get to see them every week nowadays, as the football is brilliant. But I also wouldn't swap seeing Kenny, Emlyn, Souey, and my favourite player Stevie Heighway for the world. These are impossible comparisons, of course. But yeah, life, eh. It's just the way it is.

  40. Monday Jan 8: Henderson wants to quit Saudi because the weather is too hot, the training facilities are shit and the crowds are pathetic. Apparently there’s loads of others who want out now too one of the reasons being given is the lack of freedom the wives have. I mean, where to even fucking start with this. How thick are these cunts? I assumed they knew all of this beforehand but just wanted the money. There are also rumours that players want to leave because of the human rights issues and how they impact their wives. You couldn’t make this shit up, it’s fucking pathetic. It seems almost incomprehensible that they didn’t know it was hot and that women aren’t allowed to do normal stuff over there, but after that interview Henderson did with the Athletic it’s clear he’s thick as fuck so maybe he didn’t do his homework before he went there. It’s more likely that he fell for the bullshit about how that league was the new happening place to be and that he was going to be playing with / against loads of stars in front of massive crowds, but now that he knows that’s not how it is he wants out. Imagine completely fucking ruining your legacy at Liverpool to go and play six months over there before coming back with your tail between your legs. What a fucking knobhead he’s turned out to be. I don’t really give much of a shit about anyone else who went over there. I didn’t like it, but didn’t judge them too harshly. With him though, I just thought he was better than that so it was a tough scene finding out he wasn’t. And then he did the interview which just made me think he’s a fucking helmet. And now it’s even worse because he’s quitting and didn’t even have the stones to stick it out. I hope he doesn’t come back to the PL because I don’t want to even look at him. There’s talk that Newcastle want him and that he’s interested. As much as I think he’s a fucking gobshite, I don’t think he’s that much of a gobshite. Meanwhile, United beat Wigan in the FA Cup tonight. Fernandes is getting shit for diving to win a pen, but not from Wrighty who called it ‘clever’. I love Wrighty but you’ve got to be consistent on these things or you look like Alan Shearer - in other words a twat. Last week Wrighty hammered Jota but tonight he’s justifying what Fernandes did. Come on, Wrighty, you’re better than that.
