On the Ball (new Football Focus)

No, Italia! Italia!..

Gerrard's defence is that he threw the first punches as an act of self-defence when the other guy stood up, I'll remember that one next time I'm in Southport...

More likely to be singing "Liverpool, Liverpool" now the thrust of your attack is a pair of Scousers!! :)) LOL

[Sandperson]

Argh, no! One's from Chester and the others an Evertonian so I think we dodged a bullet there. ;-)

He extracted so much money from Newcastle, he is now richer than they are. He'll probably score so many goals for MU that he can bankrupt them as well, on his pay as you score deal.

More of a suburb, but it is in Liverpool:

Or have I missed something?

[Keef]

You could really argue that Liverpool (well Anfield) are in Everton.

[Sharon_H]

No you couldn't, it's a different area.

[Annasfield]

Anfield is in the district of Anfield, which is in Liverpool, Merseyside.

Everton is in Liverpool, Merseyside.Fact!

Face it - "Your heroes are Scouse".

[????]

Are Liverpool and Everton the nearest grounds in England for walking between? Notts F and Notts C are nearer but the Trent gets in the way (Dundee and Dundee U are practically next door in Scotland)

[Sharon_H]

The distance between them is less than a mile if you walk though Stanley Park, so maybe.

[Keef]

Anfield used to be Everton's ground, I was joking.

[matthew123]

I'd still say Notts Co and Nottm Forest are closest even if you do have to walk across a bridge

Used to be Wimbledon and Crystal Palace with closest grounds.

[????]

...well groundsharing doesn't count...

[Keef]

Hmmm, see the gossip columns are saying that Chelsea and Man City are interested in Alonso now.

[matthew123]

Exactly that Keef, gossip columns...

[Sandperson]

Do you not think Alonso will move at all then Matt?

Probably best to ignore my after midnight posts. Was out last night, why I felt the need to post a rubbish comment on my return I don't know.

[david_carnell]

Dundee and Dundee United are the closest in Britain:

Haha, thought as much.

if celtic beat dynamo moscow they might play lyon or arsenal in the "play off" for the champions league group stages. Celtic will no doubt be favourites as we have that little star on our shirts that reflects previous winners. Bring on the wenger boys they wont have seen an atmosphere like paradise before.
