The 1974 FA Cup Final: Liverpool v. Newcastle United

After 1965's FA Cup victory over Leeds United, Liverpool's next trip to the final saw them come up short in a hard-fought game against Arsenal in 1971. As in 1965, the match had gone to extra time a goalless draw, and once again three goals had then been scored—only this time, it was Liverpool on the losing end of a 2-1 scoreline.

Red News celebrated its 25th anniversary this month, which is quite an incredible feat, and Sir Alex Ferguson wrote a letter to them to mark the occasion.

As part of the special edition of the fanzine, I wrote an article looking at some well known Manchester United players in their 25th year.

50 Years of Merseyside Derbies

There have been 217 Merseyside derbies in total. I limited this remembrance to the previous 122, those played in the last 50 years. Which is actually a handy dividing line, as Liverpool and Everton only met once between 1951 and 1962, in the '54-55 FA Cup (which Liverpool won), because of Everton then Liverpool's relegation to the Second Division.

After their 2-0 "mulling" in the hands of Newcastle last night, it would be fashionable to mock Liverpool today. But the only thing we're laughing about is the way Jonás Gutiérrez is hugging Andy Caroll in that photo above.

Just under eight months after Liverpool won in dramatic fashion over Birmingham, they bowed out in decidedly less impressive (and painfully pixelated) fashion in their first League Cup appearance of the 2001-2002 season, losing to Grimsby Town at Anfield. The following campaign thankfully brought much more success, and for the third time in three seasons, Liverpool found themselves in a cup final in Wales.

In his eight previous years in charge, Liverpool had won at least one trophy in seven of them, including five league titles and their first three European Cups. His final season would see Liverpool capture their sixth league title under his watch, their fifth Charity Shield, and their third League Cup.

Where has the filling gone for Home United "sandwich" ??"Two pieces of toasts without fillings in the middle" as what it sums up Home United performance in their season curtain-raiser against defending S.League champions Tampines Rovers in the Charity Shield match at JBS.
The void left by Valery Hiek was clearly illustrated in the goal conceded in less than five minute how the once stout brick-like Protectors' defense was fully exploited by Stags' new signing Davor Piskor with not follow up from Lionel Lewis' narrowing of angle from near distance.

When Eric Cantona of Manchester United did his amazing Kung-fu kick on an obnoxious Crystal Palace supporter seventeen years ago this month, I was there. By chance I was also an eye-witness thirty-five years earlier when United's goalkeeper Harry Gregg spectacularly whacked a spectator at Luton Town in April, 1960, knocking him to the ground.

Many folks will be forgiven if they thought the new season of the S.League is going to kick-off a year or so, instead of the official date given the league authority - 9th February 2012.
It's not a laughing matter and consider the fact the unveiling of the CEO of the League was only done weeks ago and on the same occasion the media were only made know in larger content what are to be expected in the much touted "S.

Instead of a preview, I thought I'd look at some classic Arsenal matches against this week's opponents. And when those opponents are Man Utd, there's a lot of games to choose from. So, rather than one game, I thought I'd look at a whole season: 2004-2005. That year, we played United in three games that can genuinely be described as epic (we also opened the season by beating them in the Charity Shield).

Laurie Hughes obituary

England centre-half at the 1950 World Cup The tale of the Liverpool footballer Laurie Hughes, who has died aged 87, is one of the game's saddest stories. He was plunged into World Cup football in Brazil in 1950, his debut for England. But during a Charity Shield game a few months later, he was badly injured, ending his international career.

Since the Premier League began back in the 1992-93 season, The Red Devils have won the prestigious title a total of 12 times – more than any other Premiership club. Another impressive statistic is the fact that they've never finished outside the top-4.

My ten point plan will not save football in its entirety, but it will help make it a darn sight more enjoyable.

Showing off is generally considered a distasteful trait in life. Right from when we are toddlers, we are schooled not to show of our bright new shoes, because Timmy doesn't have one see? If you have nice shoes, you wear them to school and act as if nothing happened. It's slightly different in sports though, because a lot of the point of a game itself is the other person NOT winning.

There can be few more thrilling experiences than watching Manchester United come from being two goals behind at Wembley to beat 'noisy neighbours' Manchester City 3-2 with a last minute winner in the Community Shield. However much City may now try to dismiss the occasion as simply a 'pre-season warm up' it's still a terrific feeling to see so many United youngsters rising to the occasion in classic Busby Babes' style, all those players like Chris Smalling, Phil Jones, Tom Cleverley and Danny Welbeck, each giving hope that another generation of 'kids' is coming through at Old Trafford.
