JÜRGEN Klopp’s post-Newcastle debacle press conference made for an interesting watch for a number of reasons. First, it was clear he was absolutely fuming and in no mood for bullshit after Liverpool undid much of their recent good work in front of the watching...
BACK down to earth with an almighty bump. It’s rather worrying that we didn’t seem to have any answers to a team working quite hard. Concerning that the only shot on target was a limp Dejan Lovren header (Albie’s offside-not-offside worldie aside)....

SORRY about the delay. Am in Barmouth. Barmouth has a lot going for it. Fantastic, dramatic coastline. Arcades. Boozers. But it doesn’t have much signal. On days like today, this is both a good and bad thing. Good because I am excluded from the internet. Bad...
Football, we’re often told, has a morality problem. Players dive (if foreign) and go to ground too easily (if English). Players (foreign) wave imaginary cards. Fans sing offensive songs, abuse referees, name rape victims on social networks. God, everybody’s on them...
