I know Ed002 always said he was a Chelsea fan, but I always thought (maybe wishful thinking) that he was a red at heart. I can't help but think that Sunday, he and Wonder Dog Sparky will have a bottle of Sipsmith Gin celebrating #20.
{Ed025's Note - i somehow doubt that Stone.. :)
1.) 23 May 2025 16:28:45
Ed002 wasn't really a football fan in the traditional sense and said several times that he had a soft spot for us.
2.) 23 May 2025 17:22:50
We were always secretly his favourites, I reckon (even though he did call us cretins about 10,000 times) .
3.) 23 May 2025 17:33:12
That's correct. He never really criticized the club in any way. It was some of the "fans" that always got his goat.
4.) 23 May 2025 18:41:21
Darwin’s evolution- out of curiosity how much do you think the following players will command in transfer fees? I’d say easily £200 million
Nunez, Elliot, Doak, Kelleher, Tsimikas, Morton, and Chiesa, Diaz, Jota, Quansah, Bacjetic, Gomez, and Konate
Personally I see Chiesa Diaz konate bajcetic and Gomez all staying put with quansah going out on loan
I think Luca Stephenson and Owen beck will also be moved on permanently- I’d also include Cherki and hato to the incoming list.
29 May 2023 21:29:28
See that the Sergej Milinković-Savić rumours are starting up again.
1.) 29 May 2023 22:28:58
He's really great. I really think we should sign him or Rabiot. Both really physical and dominant in the air. Both bang in their prime years too at 28 and capable of scoring around 10 goals a season when given license to go forward.
Our midfield lacked power last season. Got rolled over far too easily and bullied at times. Hendo used to ensure we never got bullied, but his legs are gone. So we need that 6ft plus midfield aggressor to smash the opposition when needed whilst contributing going forward like Hendo used to.
2.) 30 May 2023 07:31:55
I think we should sign Mme Rabiot, she sounds like she enjoys a bit of a battle too.
3.) 30 May 2023 07:37:45
I don’t think either Rabiot or Savic fit the bill of an LFC signing to be honest. We tend to go for players no older than 25 as they approach their prime years, not already in them. That said I wouldn’t be against having those two provide some much needed immediate quality, grit and power to our midfield whilst the likes of Jones, Elliot Bjacetic and maybe Morgan continue to develop.
4.) 30 May 2023 08:39:21
Westwood we have broken the mould recently with that.
5.) 30 May 2023 09:51:23
I really hope with get an athletic DM this transfer season and not just AMs that also play DM from time to time. Savic is good but my eye would be on others.
6.) 30 May 2023 11:36:02
Was just of the opinion fsg like to buy younger players that's all.
{Ed002's Note - FSG don't decide on the players to buy.}
17 Mar 2023 20:01:50
Ed002, are we looking at Julian Brandt as some are reporting?
{Ed002's Note - Julian Brandt (W/AM/CM) Agent has been hawking him around the PL as he is a Free Agent in the summer but there is no clear interest. BD may look to a new contract.}
1.) 18 Mar 2023 07:32:26
Strange considering Klopp was previously interested before he moved to BD. would be a good punt ona free.
2.) 18 Mar 2023 09:14:23
JB would be a terrible buy. We already have 3 youngsters who are similar in type and 2cant get any game time.
3.) 18 Mar 2023 09:25:12
Having a great season and previously sought by Klopp. Might be a decent signing to replace Ox on a free.
4.) 18 Mar 2023 10:03:04
Is is free? We’ll take him beggars can’t be choosers.
5.) 18 Mar 2023 00:14:34
Thank you.
6.) 18 Mar 2023 00:55:17
Defo on his way then.
7.) 18 Mar 2023 10:35:19
Just what we need. Another midfielder who can’t put his foot in.
03 Mar 2023 12:02:19
Ed002, is there anything to the Liberty Media reports potentially investing in FSG? I would imagine there would be issues since they own the Atlanta Braves, unless they invested directly in Liverpool which I don't know is possible or not.
{Ed002's Note - Liberty Media who own the Atlanta Braves and Formula 1 want to extend their portfolio have looked at investment in Manchester United. Investment in FSG would be difficult due to ownership of the Atlanta Braves.}
1.) 03 Mar 2023 16:58:46
Thank you.
18 Dec 2022 16:18:15
Ed002, any chance for a sharkopod as a Christmas gift for us?
{Ed002's Note - Perhaps at some point.}
1.) 18 Dec 2022 16:47:10
Cheers Ed! Hope you have an excellent and boozy Christmas.
2.) 18 Dec 2022 17:57:19
Easy on the positivity Victor.
3.) 18 Dec 2022 18:05:58
Never ever do a Sharapova off the back of a world cup.
4.) 18 Dec 2022 18:36:06
See your boy Nkunku has signed for Chelsea Jude, you’re a jinx on these things! Can you change your name to Dembele Amrabat?
5.) 18 Dec 2022 19:54:43
I'd do Sharapova on the back of anything personally Oh Mane.
6.) 19 Dec 2022 08:12:33
To be fair stone so would I. Fecking autocorrect ?.
7.) 19 Dec 2022 08:14:10
Dont worry, i'll hit a homer with Bellingham Victor?.

To my fellow US Reds. Maybe it is just the town I'm in, but I wonder if people around me really know what it means to be a Liverpool supporter. There is a difference between being a fan and a supporter especially living across the pond. To me, being a Liverpool supporter is like being a part of a community. We are a very unique fan base. I make it a point to say something to everyone I see wearing a Liverpool kit and I always get the same look back that says "leave me alone". Rarely do I get a YNWA response back. Today, really bothered me. I wore my kit out and saw a couple of people in liverpool shirts and said "You'll Never Walk Alone". Each time I was given a blank look and they just walked away. Maybe I'm wrong, but I never ignore a Liverpool supporter in my area because there aren't that many of us. There was one person who told me they just liked the shirt. I guess that's okay, but to me, it means more than that. We all on here have our disagreements from time to time, but at the end of the day, we are Liverpool supporters and that's all that matters. In my town, they don't get it and it makes me sad especially on a day like today. So, to my fellow Reds around the globe, i don't live in Liverpool or England for that matter, but YNWA. Maybe I'm wrong, I don't know.
1.) 05 Jul 2025 16:50:37
YNWA Stone, no matter where you are in the world. You will always have a family in Liverpool.
I've still not got my head around, too hard to process. Had to step away from the site for a few days because of it.
2.) 05 Jul 2025 16:51:32
I think saying you’ll never walk alone to them is a bit odd, and slightly cringey to be honest.
3.) 05 Jul 2025 17:07:44
Stone I feel you. I live in Colorado and wherever I go if I see and LFC supporter its YNWA, up the reds, etc. Some get it and you instantly start yapping about transfers, predictions, etc. some are just like. eh, and they either just don't get the ethos or they are the classic unsocial diprubbishs. Anyway, if we ever cross paths (that goes for anyone on this site that I have been on for 10+) first brewski on me! R. i. p #20.
4.) 05 Jul 2025 17:10:36
Ynwa stone. I got your back on that.
5.) 05 Jul 2025 17:19:24
Being a football fan is a superficial thing for a lot of people, especially for the bigger clubs. I genuinely don't mean that as a criticism; it's just the way it is. There's no code of conduct written anywhere that says by owning a shirt, you must suscribe to these values. At the end of the day, they all help with the shirt sales which helps helps the club so it doesn't really bother me.
6.) 05 Jul 2025 17:47:56
Cringy to say you'll never walk alone to a liverpool supporter? Really?
7.) 05 Jul 2025 18:44:22
I think it’s the way supporters support in the states Stone. They go to a Baseball game or an American Football match as an event. A day out if you like.
They have the team they follow but if they lose it’s ok because they had a day out and had fun.
I’m speaking for myself here but I know when I go to Anfield it’s way more than that. Anfield, to me is a sacred place where I go to pay homage to the players and the club, past and present. Liverpool FC is literally part of me, it’s in my DNA.
It’s not a day out, or an event that I’m going to. I’m going to do a job and be part of the team, part of the club and part of the family that has been there for me since I was born. We are one.
So, don’t feel embarrassed to say you’ll never walk alone to another red Stone. If they don’t say it back it’s fine, they just don’t understand what it is to be part of this great club. They might support us when we play but they don’t feel it like we do.
And that’s ok.
8.) 05 Jul 2025 18:44:40
Judging by their responses, they're not LFC supporters. You just said one of them just 'likes the shirt'. There are many of people like this - I used to have a Sorrento Calcio 1945 shirt (lower league Italian team, because I went to Sorrento; it looks like and AC Milan shirt and we'd beaten Milan in 2005, so just to fox people back here on Merseyside) Just do what we would do over here, and give an upward, single movement of your head as an acknowledgment. It's all that's needed really mate. Then there's no embarrassment from you or them.
Not posted since Diogo's death. A sad day for us all and obviously beyond comment for their family.
In all likelihood, he would've been sold this summer, but he would still have been one of us, as nearly all our players are after leaving.
9.) 05 Jul 2025 19:08:09
It certainly means more to be a Liverpool supporter, it certainly does to me but I do fear that it is getting a little bit “lost” in the younger generation. You’ll Never Walk Alone isn’t just four words, it actually means something. You only need to look at the history of the club, the trials and tribulations it has had to endure, even in the past few days with the passing of Jota. If his parents or wife were to read these pages over the last few days I hope they would see that they aren’t on their own, that Jota will always be remembered, his song will always be sung for generations to come.
The only tattoo I will ever have, YNWA . Four letters, four words but it’s so much more than that.
10.) 05 Jul 2025 19:14:53
Thank you AOE and Robbo, I needed to read that.
11.) 05 Jul 2025 19:24:13
Stone, YNWA mate!
12.) 05 Jul 2025 21:04:20
I'm a 50 odd year old lifelong Red, born and bred in Toxteth, but some of the most passionate fans I have met have been from overseas, they live and breathe the YNWA ethos, specifically for me Bucharest and Sarajevo, top boys and girls, very welcoming to a scouse brother. Yes there are those who like the glory of association or as said the "shirt" and that's OK they walk amongst us, but for those that understand deeper it is a brotherhood.
13.) 05 Jul 2025 21:12:33
Cheers Kaiser.
14.) 05 Jul 2025 22:42:38
ps Stone, see where the closest LFC Supporters Group is to you. Maybe you can visit and watch a match with them where they meet if it's not too far away.
15.) 06 Jul 2025 01:25:14
Each to their own but for me ‘you’ll never walk alone’ is the ethos of the club and something that makes us feel part of a larger family of like-minded supporters pulling in the same direction. It feels a bit masonic to verbalise it to another supporter.
I usually just say ‘i love your shirt’ mate.
06 Jun 2025 23:10:29
According to The Echo, "Wirtz 'agrees' Liverpool contract until 20230" That's one hell of a long time. I've never heard of a contract that long. Wow!
1.) 07 Jun 2025 00:13:19
We also paid £356m for him, stone.
2.) 07 Jun 2025 00:14:44
Regardless of the typo, nailing down one of the world’s best players to a 5 year contract is an absolute score.
3.) 07 Jun 2025 00:14:45
Zed must have written the article.
4.) 07 Jun 2025 00:49:40
Zed, that would explain the length of the contract.
5.) 07 Jun 2025 01:55:22
I did advise the folks at the Echo to stop typing their articles on a phone because of fat fingers, but would they listen?
6.) 07 Jun 2025 06:33:28
And Real Madrid want to take him on a Bosman after that.
7.) 07 Jun 2025 07:31:34
?? hopefully he doesn’t run that contract down flow to leave on a free.
5 years Makes sense with the price and financial rules. It’s being quoted at around €130 million so around £109-114 million sterling.
In regards to Financial files that’s 22 million a year. The Sale of Kelleher and Trent have already cleared year 1 of that.
8.) 07 Jun 2025 07:48:22
We are following Chelsea with the long contracts ?.
9.) 07 Jun 2025 08:44:16
What are you guys on about? 5 year contracts are the most normal contracts in football, 99% of players under 28 were all given 5 year contracts.
{Ed077's Note - exactly.
10.) 07 Jun 2025 09:20:36
Stone Chelsea have players on contract till 2040 or until they retire.
11.) 07 Jun 2025 10:16:10
By the time Wirtz runs his contract down in 205 years, he'll be as mobile as Casimero, so utd will take him!
12.) 07 Jun 2025 12:27:44
20230? Is Wirtz Buck Rogers in disguise?
26 May 2025 14:38:38
Ed001, do you think we will end up selling either Macca or Szoboszla to make room for Wirtz?
{Ed001's Note - no, we needed another midfielder.}
1.) 26 May 2025 15:47:41
Why would we sell Macca, to begin with?
2.) 26 May 2025 16:18:27
Because Liverpool aren't allowed to actually have a strong squad. God forbid there's actually competition for places. This is LFC under slot and Hughes, squad is going to be the strongest we've had since the 80s next season.
3.) 26 May 2025 16:48:34
Wow, Florian Musiala. Good thing you said it. Seems some people are allergic to us having a strong squad hence, are quick to sell our prized assets. That's fine by me.
I just ain't tryna hear these same people crying about us not having enuff squad depth and competition for places in the squad either. Can't have all your own way.
4.) 26 May 2025 17:55:22
We do realise posters don’t buy or sell players.
I know some follow football like it’s an internet tv show but that’s not how it works.
5.) 26 May 2025 18:27:26
Thanks for the response Ed. Have a good one.
{Ed001's Note - you too mate.}
27 Apr 2025 19:04:02
Ed002. you brilliant, brilliant man. Slot has been amazing! YNWA, Ed002.
20 Apr 2025 14:51:55
Happy Easter everyone!

Happy Easter Stone.

Watching Chitty Chitty Bang Bang while waiting for the match.
3.) 20 Apr 2025 15:56:14
Leicester have set a Premier League Home record of not scoring a goal after eight home games goalless for the Foxes
That record will bite the Dust today, if they can't score against our Defence, they will never score another premier home league this season.
We couldn't defend an INNOCENT man.
4.) 20 Apr 2025 16:32:01
Happy Easter mate!
5.) 20 Apr 2025 17:32:05
And yet we have the second best defence in the League.
6.) 20 Apr 2025 18:52:40
And another clean sheet Irish. Some fans are never content.
7.) 20 Apr 2025 19:41:12
Aye StEtienne though some comments are made purely to provoke reactions and comments from actual fans, we see it a lot these days unfortunately.
8.) 20 Apr 2025 19:18:18
Especially if TAA comes on.
Why is he on the bench. This spot should go to someone who is committed to the club.
Tired of the focus being on him.
Let him pack his bags and look for a house in Madrid. We need to move on.
And as for his Google advert. That tells me everything I need to know about the man.
02 Jul 2025 12:20:09
Why would Tsmikas and Robertson both stay?
30 Jun 2025 12:17:59
I'm 80% upset that there aren't percentages.
28 Jun 2025 23:43:23
Exactly ArAy, of course he would have denied it. i'm not saying he was involved, but he was definitely "in the know".
28 Jun 2025 20:22:48
Ed002 mentioned Slot early, early on. Wouldn't surprise me if he had something to do with us looking at Slot.
28 Jun 2025 17:06:24
Thefileds, do you not see Alvarez or Martinez as options any longer?
Arne Slots Haircut, what does your data suggest regarding these two players?
13 Jul 2025 14:33:14
Keegan has to be higher.
06 Jul 2025 21:29:08
good to see you back ed025.
{Ed025's Note - i have never been away Stone mate.. :)

Thank you AOE and Robbo, I needed to read that.
05 Jul 2025 17:47:56
Cringy to say you'll never walk alone to a liverpool supporter? Really?
