Handsworth U18 (16-09-2026)

Handsworth 1 - 1 Ossett United (FA Youth Cup 1st Qualifying Round) [Handsworth win 6-5 on penalties), Wednesday 16 September 2026

Liverpool (12-09-2026)

Liverpool 0 - 0 Fulham (Premier League), Saturday 12 September 2026

This was a rarity today, as we secured Liverpool tickets via late availability for a 3pm Saturday kick-off. After an arduous journey, we were 5 minutes late which wasn't bad all things considered. Liverpool need to sort the 20-minute queues at turnstiles too but that's another story.

Despite a great atmosphere, this was a flat match and Liverpool looked tired after their midweek win over Athletico. They seemed disjointed and lacked a coherent game plan. And they didn't seem able or willing to flex tactics in the closing stages - sometimes you need to throw everyone into the box and force the ball over the line. Still, it was a raucous atmosphere in the Kop and great to get to Anfield in the Autumn.
