Christmas Is Cancelled
Have you started your Christmas shopping yet? No. But I have bought a harpoon so I can skewer the next person to ask me that. I have decided to cancel Christmas. “Oh come on Al, it’s just one day.” But it’s not is it. It’s months worth of plastic happiness all aimed at this one [...]
The Stupidest Cafe In Liverpool?
There’s a cafe in Liverpool, just opposite St Luke’s Church. It’s pleasant enough inside. They play nice music. The food is very good. But I won’t be going there again because they drive me potty with an approach worthy of a Basil Fawlty Award For Customer Service. They sell jacket potatoes. Great. They sell veggie [...]

AFC Liverpool Commemorate The 96
I was proud to be at AFC Liverpool last night, the non league football club I founded last year.

It is fair to say that AFC Liverpool have led the way on [...]

We have a proud history of standing together to fight for better working conditions and defending our rights. [...]
Beating Berlusconi
I’ve just received news of a really interesting play touring the North West which should interest all football fans, and anyone else with a sense of mischief. It’s an amazing true story of one Liverpool fan’s very odd night in Istanbul. As you’d imagine it’s a comedy – no doubt made funnier by the fact [...]
Buy the Hillsborough Tribute Record
I was honoured to attend the official launch of the Hillsborough Tribute record "Fields of Anfield Road" yesterday at The Picket. The CD is on sale from April 6th and remembers those who died at Hillsborough 20 years ago this year. It was good to see Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez take time out of his [...]

Well it’s like Universe but limited to Twitter. People [...]
