THE eve of Liverpool’s Champions League semi final second leg in Rome. It was all action in Rome yesterday. Post breakfast, a few of us made our way to a small off licence just outside Campo de Fiori where we would be speaking to a couple of Roma fans about their...
JOSH EDGAR “WE’VE conquered all of Europe, we’re never gonna stop.” It’s half time at the Ataturk Stadium. Liverpool are 3-0 down to a team regarded as the best in Europe and my seven-year-old self runs to my room sobbing. My mum’s sincere attempt to comfort me with...

Gareth Roberts, Dan Austin, Craig Hannan and Ben Johnson, fresh from a chat with BTE Sport, put together a quick show from outside the Colosseum with what had to say about how they are finding it so far and what their thoughts are on tomorrow night’s big game...
WE go to Rome on Wednesday. A city that means so much to the older generation of our fan base, but means very little to us, writes DOMINIC CLIFF. We know about the European Cup wins there — “In ‘77 and ‘84 it was Rome”. You’ve heard the song. You’ve seen the...

LIVERPOOL’S performance against Roma on Tuesday night is one to be enjoyed, writes HARRY HAWTHORNE. To shun the prospect of savouring such a result, achieved in such a way, could be construed as lunacy. As fans, it’s what you love the game for. It’s why you accept the...
