LIKE a lot of people, I’ve been enjoying the new Planet Earth series on BBC One. If I feel half as relieved when Liverpool win the league as I did when that little lizard made it away from those snake bastards the other week then I’ll be surprised. It’s made me...

I’VE been writing a regular Thursday column for TAW for a few months now. Because Robbo needs the piece early enough to give it the once over and I like to give myself enough time to re-write bits if need be, I tend to write it on a Wednesday. This week that means...

BEFORE a ball was kicked, I said Liverpool will win the league this season. As each game has passed — and Liverpool have responded to every obstacle put in front of them (Burnley aside) — I’m merely becoming more and more convinced. There are a number of...

I’VE got a confession to make that will cause Robbo to call me a wool. I didn’t watch the match live on Tuesday night. I set up my box to record it, I gave my girlfriend my phone so I couldn’t accidentally read any messages and told everyone not to tell me the score....

I’VE been thinking about social media a lot recently. Or, to be more specific, about Twitter. I’m a big Twitter fan. It took me a while to get into it, not understanding what it was about at first. But now I’m on it all the time. In so many ways it’s a brilliant way...

PHIL Blundell wrote a brilliant piece yesterday all about how Jürgen Klopp has made a fool of us all. Phil’s premise, which I entirely agree with, was that Jürgen knows much more about football than the rest of us. Essentially, this German fella who is dead good at...

IS Liverpool’s match this weekend the club’s most important for 25 years? Probably not, if we’re being honest. AC Milan in the Champions League final at the Ataturk Stadium possibly outweighs Hull at home. Yet, to some extent, it feels huge. The Reds’ season so far...

DID you listen to The Pink — TAW’s post-match reaction show — immediately after the Borussia Dortmund match at Anfield? If you did, you probably remember hearing that John Gibbons took his top off and started whirling it over his head (if you...
