WE walk to the ground full of hope, predictions are flying around on the scorelines and they are mostly in favour of The Reds. We do this more based on positivity than logic. Its simply more fun to go to a game thinking you are going to win. But its also based on past...
NEIL ATKINSON is joined by Mike Nevin, Steve Graves and Rob Gutmann to discuss Gerrard’s big move, Jordan’s big bollocking and a big, big three points Download Issue 12 of #TAW Monthly via iTunes or at app.theanfieldwrap.com for other devices. Like what we...
NOBODY likes to admit they’re wrong do they? So hard nosed and infallible are people’s opinions on football – and I am of course generalising here – that perhaps many are afraid such an admission will destroy their reputation and credibility as a voice,...
