Rotten to the Core

After a (long) period of reflection on Liverpool Football Club’s efforts in the 2009/2010 season, I originally intended to write down my thoughts on where it had all gone wrong.

Champions League Semi Final 2008 – First Leg – Liverpool v Chelsea

I still feel physically sick about last night’s result. Literally, the feeling in my stomach right now is horrible. I suppose that is football though. It was vital last night for us to keep a clean sheet, and get one or two goals. All was going to plan, until a moment of madness in the [...]
