Not a million miles from Pat's Day and the annual excoriation of the British /Irish by himself. Apart from McCarthy, are there any members here who want to out themselves as expats? More seriously, God love all of you bousers from Cork, Galway, Dub etc who give this place the little bit of...

Can't find a match thread, so ... Most of our lot are either riddled with disease or crocked. Most of theirs are ugly grocks managed by the Mars Bar fetishist Pardew. They also have serial poppy dodger James MacLean. They beat us in 1968 thanks to an extra time deflected shot from Jeff Castle...

(Apologies, mods: used to be a 'snuffed it' thread but just can't find it.) Pat Sullivan died early last week. It wasn't unexpected - he'd just turned 94 and had been in poor health for a while. Uncle Pat was brought over to Liverpool as a baby in the 20's and started watching the Blues with...

Next Friday sees St. Pat's Day. Advance notice to @Moomin! Anyone got plans?

For me, @Groucho would be an Old English (Dulux) Dog. Firm but fair with his flock, but ready to have his belly tickled in the right circumstances. Any other posters who bring to mind a particular breed of canine? (I've avoided pussies for reasons only too well known to those familiar with...

In a few months, France elects its new President. Everyone (including the Socialists) seems to expect a duel in the final round between Le Pen and Fillon. One is a fascist anti - abortionist. The other a conservative Catholic anti - abortionist. One dislikes the E U; the other hates the E U...

Steve Rotheram has been selected by Labour to be Mayoral candidate. As good as being elected, really. Hope his foul affiliation to LFC doesn't affect any decisions involving us.

At one time, long, long ago now, there was an upload file button. At first I was nervous of using it ... I was afraid, I was petrified Kept thinking I could never live with you by my side But then I spent so many nights thinking how you might do me wrong And I grew strong And I learned how to...

When the going gets tough, I make my excuses and leave. This time, Professor Hawking has kindly given me the latest in time travelling transport, complete with wheels, seats and a few wooden crates of brown ale. I'm in charge, so I get to wear the peaked cap and a rather fetching uniform...

@Khalekan and some others have mentioned possibly the worst week in the club's history ... March 24th - 27th 1971. We were a delicate plant in that season - beyond dreadful in the league (plus ca change) but going well in Europe and the F A Cup. Greece (I'm told) provided a lousy pitch and, in...

Is it time to change the club's motto from the present one which is a bit of a mockery, to one which more accurately reflects the board's ambitions for the club - and themselves? His nos ipsi percutimus pecuniam , stulti, perhaps? Very roughly translated, it reads, "We're raking it in, suckers".

Hugely difficult subject with no easy answers. I wonder if ethics should be a compulsory part of every science course.

Bloke from a different continent shoots lion with cross bow and rifle. Bloke is sorry because he didn't know the lion was a local favourite. How about being sorry because he's a waste of space?

July will see George Osborne announce the 12 billion pound cuts to the welfare system & other measures in an unusually timed budget. I'll be interested in two things: will he backslide on the Tory promise not to damage benefits for the sick & disabled, and how Labour will respond to his plan...

I was a little kid in the 50's and sitting on a bed listiening to his Lordship talk about his life and his loves (whiskey, Everton, me grandma). He was a proud man who resented being forced to pack in among a crowd being selected for work on the docks. (One of his memories is of Liverpool F C...

Warning: if you don't cope well with raw emotion, look away now! I have to start off by brown nosing this site and its mods. I've genuinely not found the level of humour or insight on any other site, be it footy or anything else for that matter. On this day, some years ago, a young man of 18...

Appreciate that there are a couple of guys on here who outrank me in terms of years. But for the sake of sanity I have to say this: we are where we are because we are not remotely good enough to be better paced. Happy to go through a position by position comparison. Equally happy to defend...

This is inspired by 3rd generation. Some sort of beat combo and Bessie Braddock are as large as life in vraious commemorations along with any number of forgotten eejits. But Merseyside is as famed for anything for football and its greatest goal scoring exponent has a wee statue in the suburbs...
