You never know when to believe Sir Alex Ferguson. The nature of the news cycle is that he'll say one thing and then something completely different happens, but no one goes back to report on what he initially said. A good example of that is how he said during the weekend that Manchester United would […]

As an American, when I was first introduced to the Premier League I was intrigued by the idea of relegation to a lower league along with lower tier teams moving up. I will admit that it took me a bit to truly grasp this. Since then I have enjoyed this aspect of the EPL and […]

In 1954, something that no football supporter wants to happen to their club happened. Liverpool were relegated. Many thought that Liverpool would bounce back quickly, but for eight long years they only managed to go as high as 3rd in the old second division.

Neville showed his prowess in front of the TV cameras again tonight before the Liverpool-West Bromwich Albion match where […]

What a difference a year makes. One year ago, Scott Sinclair was bombing down the left wings of Swansea City in their first season in the Premier League. There was talk in many circles of a possible England call-up. The former Chelsea winger played on the Great Britain Olympic side, where he scored once in […]

Former Liverpool assistant manager Steve Clarke and his side travels to Anfield today to play the Reds in a match that has important consequences for both sides. Liverpool has an opportunity to move up into seventh spot, while West Brom can move into eighth position. Both teams are hoping to qualify for Europe. Liverpool starting […]
