FAITH is a funny thing, isn’t it? The Reds are the best Reds I have seen in probably my whole adult life and here I am as the team news drops, with my undies in my throat, wishing I was one of them grey fellas who liked nothing. I mean, the team has the look of one...
Pre Match I DON’T know about you but my bottle has gone, here. Realised this morning that if The Reds want to win the league we probably need to win today and I now can’t function. Couple this with me reading Bruce Grobbelaar’s interview the other day where he...
JESUS. Ran ourselves into the ground for a big dose of nothing but cramp and tired legs for Sunday. Would probably have been better if they had just beat us early doors. Fine lines between a good, old-fashioned, hard-fought European away point, and a massive bowl of...
LAD. I know, lad. The wrigglies are back. Alisson: 7 Made three great saves there dressed as a massive big pink fella. What a kit. Might be at fault for there’s, maybe? I don’t know. Can do what he wants in that kit in fairness, can’t he? Trent: 7 Few sloppy balls in....
Miggy: 7 Had a lovely big stay on his line first half there, didn’t he? That said, made a smart save for a fella with a pear for a head first half. Can we put this fucker to bed now? I’ll play for the FA Cup. Clyne: 6 Was in front of us first half there with loads of...
THERE’S Mark Hughes there, looking like yer nan got dressed in the wrong wardrobe again. Alisson: 8 Nothing to do, nothing to do, nothing to do, bang, 92 minutes, smart save down to his right. I love a smart save. Suit and tie. Trent: 8 Running out of things to say...
PARIS. Have you ever been? Romantic capital of the world, apparently. I’ve never been, but my bird’s auld fella lived there for a bit. Said there is dog shit everywhere and you can’t lift your head off the floor. Jib it. Alisson: 7 He’s massive, you know....
IT’S glorious winning at Wembley, isn’t it? We used to do it all the while y’know. Let’s do it all the while again, aye? Alisson: 8 Back to making his shit look easy, isn’t he? Loved it when that 1945 fella upfront for them tried to lob him with a header and he...
I TELL you what. They fucking love Kasabian in Leicester, you know. Like not just love them, proper freedom of the city shit. Like these are gods among men. The gods of the middle. Gods of skinny jeans, and silly sideys. The gods of pork chops. Fair doos to them. Any...
WHEN you can’t get the goal difference, settle for winning every game and never conceding again. Brighton seemed to have learned their lesson from last season and were well drilled to plug gaps and kick everybody in a red shirt on sight. Fair play to them, it...
