http://liverpool.theoffside.com News from Liverpool football club Fri, 16 May 2008 04:21:21 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en As I was reading brilliant reviews of the season and feeling melancholy, I came across a bunch of headlines in the futbol world saying that Roman Abramovich has bid £40million for our favorite striker. Now, put aside all the stupid reports from banks you've heard about Liverpool possibly having ... http://liverpool.theoffside.com/team-news/torres-to-chelsahahahasorry.html I'm glad to see we ended the season with another win and even more glad to see one final goal by El Niño. It's unfortunate that the Reds spent most of the season trying to figure out who to put where, but now that the system is in place, ... http://liverpool.theoffside.com/team-news/spurs-0-2-lfc.html At least the second string can get it done at the club. After winning the Dallas Cup and the Northern Division Championship, the Liverpool Reserves have captured the national title. I'd post some neat pictures or something, but there don't seem to be any. *sniff* http://liverpool.theoffside.com/team-news/thats-why-our-reserves-are-champions.html The plans for the new Liverpool FC stadium have been approved by the city council. This means that the owners can now squabble about whether it actually gets built or not. The stadium will be able to seat 60,000 with possible expansion to 70,000. Opponents say it's ... http://liverpool.theoffside.com/team-news/new-stadium-approved-and-other-crap.html It may be a fruitless victory, but it's still a victory. The score really doesn't do the match justice. Liverpool dominated Manchester City for the majority of the match, but failed to capitalize on numerous opportunities. The away crowd did a good job of showing their support for Sven-Goran ... http://liverpool.theoffside.com/team-news/lfc-1-0-man-city.html I've been racking my brain all day about what to write tonight. It's just difficult to believe it's over. No more chances for glory this season. We'll finish in 4th instead of 3rd, reaching the semifinals of the Champions League instead of the finals, and were knocked ... http://liverpool.theoffside.com/liverpool/game-over.html While having a cry about Sven getting the sack, I remembered that there's something going on Wednesday. Once again, the Reds make the long trek south east to London to take on the evil evil Chelsea Blues. What is there to say other than THIS IS IT! ... http://liverpool.theoffside.com/team-news/wednesday-already.html Sorry for the delayed post, but I really couldn't think of anything to write other than, "it happened like I thought it'd happen." Rafa rotated out key players to give them a rest before Wednesday and they drew, securing their spot in Champions League qualification next season. For a good ... http://liverpool.theoffside.com/team-news/birmingham-result-and-diving-drogba.html The new home kit has been officially announced along with the new keeper kit. It looks remarkably like what I posted before. It's almost like...someone knew. I can't wait to get mine. I'll be sporting the #9. Hopefully, it won't be too long before these ... http://liverpool.theoffside.com/team-news/new-kit-and-the-two-blues.html I think the picture captures how I feel. I'm still in shock as to how we could give away a one goal lead in the final seconds of the match, but I guess that's just the funny game of football. Chelsea did a pretty good job of shutting down Torres ... http://liverpool.theoffside.com/champions-league/time-to-man-up.html
