Just been reminded of Ian Rush playing for us in another thread. Reading his wiki...

 

Rush was used sporadically during his first season at the club as Liverpool had a policy of bringing in young talent and playing them in the reserves to learn 'the Liverpool way'. Rush was treated no differently and had to begin his time at the club as a squad member rather than being thrown into the first team.

 

That Liverpool way bollocks has been around that long? :anguish:

Doesn't the "Liverpool Way" go back to Shankly when they were actually good, and is now being held up in order to claim a continuity with that success, a tradition of excellence which has actually been severed before some posters on this board were born...?

A documentary on Liverpool football club has been nominated for an Emmy.

 

Being: Liverpool, a six-part fly-on-the-wall series that provided a behind-the-scenes look at the team in July and August 2012, is in the running for 'Outstanding Editing' in the 34th Annual Sports Emmy Awards.

 

 

 

The premiere aired on September 16, 2012 in the UK as Liverpool travelled to Boston for their pre-season, before concluding on October 26 with the squad's Premier League encounter with Manchester City.

 

Show commissioner Michael Bloom said: "It's a great honour for us to be nominated alongside such distinguished programming and it's a tribute to our production team's talent as well as the incredible trust Liverpool put in us.

 

"From start to finish it was an exhilarating experience. Being as close to the action and characters as it was all unfolding was amazing. We did what no-one had really done before.

 

"The incredible access we were granted and the trust the club had in us made the process quite enjoyable."

 

The awards ceremony for this year's Sports Emmy Awards will take place at Frederick P Rose Hall, Lincoln Center in New York on May 7.

Was a pretty nasty punch like, but I was more surprised that the bloke he hit didn't go down like he'd been shot. He's such a little cunt, really fucking hope Liverpool sell him this summer, really want him away from the Premier League.

Saw someone had posted the video on Facebook yesterday but honestly thought it must be an old incident.

 

I like that one of the related articles on the BBC is from the 8th March, Rodgers saying Suarez is a changed man.

Just realised these are 2nd in the Fairplay league, so if England finishes in the top 3 leagues (4th as of the last juncture in January) they'll get in Europe through the back door :anguish:

 

Just get Perchy to wind up Reina again and it'll be fine :thup:

I liked this line from the Daily Mail's take on it:

 

The Dortmund side that reached the Champions League semi-finals on Tuesday was made up of two youth graduates, three free transfers and six players who cost a combined total of £30million in transfer fees.

 

Carroll £35m, Henderson £20m, Allen £15m, Borini £10m, Downing £20m......they're practically Dortmund already ;D
