AND so, at last, he’s gone. So too are the biting scandals, the racism debacle, the laborious diving debates and everything else that came with him. The Luis Suarez circus has moved on to Catalonia and he is now officially FC Barcelona’s ‘problem’. So what are we left...
“LUIS SUAREZ is a c*** – but he’s our c***.” I said that to an audience of 900 Liverpool fans when The Anfield Wrap put on a live show at the Hilton Hotel in Melbourne 12 months ago. Back then, Suarez was trying to engineer his way out of the club. Arsenal had put in...
TO thoroughly misquote John Lennon: Last night the wife said…”How do you feel about this whole Suarez thing then?” I’ve said it before but it bears repeating, my wife’s a Blue. A fanatical Blue. Her whole family is. She has an uncle who...
NEIL ATKINSON and John Gibbons were joined by Si Steers and and Karl Coppack in another TAW World Cup special with debate also inevitably focusing on Luis Suarez’s ban following his latest biting incident. Podcast also includes last week’s City Talk show....

WHEN the final whistle went in The Excelsior last night after City/Arsenal all I heard was people saying to each other: “It’s in our hands. It’s in our hands.” Today we grabbed it. Seized it. Knuckles white, grip tight. In our hands. We are Top...
LET’S start with the facts. 1988: Arguably our greatest side – 87 goals in 40 games. 1979: For me, the perfect Liverpool team – 85 goals in 42 games 1977: Our greatest season – 62 goals in 42 games Ladies and gentlemen, Liverpool currently sit...
TO be honest, I still haven’t got over Stoke away. Stoke was the season. It was 0-0s and defeats only prior to the current insanity. Stoke is Jon Walters, long throw-ins, getting smacked all over the park, always cold and that nervous walk back to the car across...
In February 1987 Liverpool played an everyday bog standard home game with Southampton. As with many Liverpool/Soton games it didn’t have much to recommend it. Peter Shilton was in goal so the game was automatically relegated to an undercard as the Kop preferred...
