Anfield Talk 06 September @ 11:10 AM EST
Peter Gulacsi is hoping his new Liverpool contract will prove to be a stepping stone towards the
Reds' first-team.
The 19-year-old goalkeeper put pen to paper on a new deal last month that will keep him at Anfield
until 2013.
Gulacsi is delighted to have committed his future to the club and, having been named as a
substitute for last weekend's Barclays Premier League clash with Bolton, admits his long-term
ambition is to establish himself in Liverpool's first-team setup.

Hereford United 1 - 1 Cheltenham Town: Saturday 15th August 2009
Hang my head in shame. I didn't go.
Cheltenham evidently the better side and had a late goal ruled off-side. Elvis Hammond scored & man
of the match. His ego and ankles must be nursed along for the rest of the season.

There are some things in life that are nigh on guaranteed, and Charlton limping out of the
League Cup to a Division Four team is certainly one of them. The defeat sadly came as no surprise
to seasoned Addicks, particularly given the weakened nature of our starting eleven.
However, unless you were one of the 323 foolhardy souls who made the trip, there is little to
get overly despondent about.

A scour of the Welsh Premier League has thrown up over 100 players and managers plying their trade
over the border. Some have originated from English leagues lower down the pyramid, such as the West
Cheshire League, while others come from professional backgrounds – some more interesting than
others.

The Olympic team was announced today and I must say I am disappointed. Greame Arnold has left out
Djite, Burns, Williams, Vidosic. He has bizarrely used age as a reason for the decision not to take
Djite or Burns. These are the same players that have played against the likes of Kevin Muscat and
Craig Moore week in week out.

The journalist and broadcaster Danny Baker once noted that the primary role of a football
commentator is to make the exasperated television viewer shout "WE KNOW!" at the
television screen during matches, to the extent that it famously used to drive his father to his
distraction. Sadly, Mr Baker Senior passed away earlier this year - not quite long enough to be
able to raise a toast to the retirement of John Motson, the veteran BBC commentator, who has
announced his retirement from live commentary from the BBC following their failure to secure major
television rights ahead of the new season.

What the hell is going on? I'm not really angry about the issue and I can't honestly say I'm
surprised, but the recent action of our owners is just witless. Why would they come out with this
statement? It makes no sense. Rafa hasn't voiced any complaints to the press concerning transfers,
the closest he did was talk about wanting to sign Mascherano permanently and that wasn't even
recently.

Though the Merseyside police have stated that they will look no further into how John Arne Riise's
wageslip was leaked to the internet due to lack of complaint, Liverpool FC have decided to take
matters into their own hands by launching an independent investigation. The first anecdote to
emerge involving the controversy is that a group of Everton fans co-conspired to rummage Riise's
vehicle after spotting the 27-year-old Norwegian in a pub.

Robbie Threlfall (pictured, center above) has been sent out on one month loan to League Two side,
Hereford United. The 18-year-old left back was on both FA Youth Cup winning sides in 2006 and 2007.
He scored the goal in the second leg of 2007 final with Manchester United to send the match to
penalties, where Liverpool prevailed 4-2. He was named Man of the Match for his efforts that night
at Old Trafford.

Imagine being the lifelong supporter of a club that's practically right outside your front door.
You are so dedicated to your club that you eventually become the administrator of the club's
independent supporters forum, spending God knows how many hours doing God knows what to get to that
level. Then, out of the blue, you get a call from Graham Turner, the team's owner and manager,
telling you, that because of something posted on the forum, you are banned from the club's stadium.
