RIP - Liverpool's second best DJ

.



I'm sad now. Phil Easton died. I grew up listening to The Great Easton Express, and used to take great delight in listening to Phil talk about the ace gig he'd been to the night before, as it was in the days when, chances were, I'd been there too. His "interviews" with Rick Wakeman were side-splitters; like overhearing the funniest conversations ever from the two blokes sat next to you in the pub.
*Sniff!*
All it'd take now to completely ruin my day will be a defeat for the bizarrely Keane-less Reds . . .

God, haven't we played the Toffees about 62 times in the last month anyway?! Will it ever end?!

I've got to say, it was weird to see how little fight Liverpool put up. I think Keane might actually have made the difference tonight - especially after you lost Gerrard - I thought that was a bigger moment than the Lucas sending off.

Were you watching on ITV? How annoyed were you when they went to that ad break with two minutes to go and then came back to scenes of Everton celebrating? I suspect heads may roll somewhere in ITV central!

@ Blimpy - did we know you were red sh... I mean, a Liverpool fan?

Blimpy said...

Reds under the bed! Watch out!

Actually, Toffee, the ad interruption did start here, but only lasted about 3-5 seconds. We got a further 10 seconds of complete blank screen, then the coverage came back in time for the goal ... unfortunately.

Waiting on the injury news now.

And I'm finally wavering in my support for Rafa - given that every top team needs four quality forwards, why has he sold ours? If Torres and Gerrard is his first choice pairing, then fine, but Christ, can you imagine the havoc a Crouch/Keane combination could have wreaked with Riera & Babel either side of 'em?

Four quality forwards? Four quality forwards???!!! We dream of having one!
