I often wondered if we had some sort of gypsy curse who was a Liverpool supporter that had placed one on us, all tongue in cheek but spooky at the same time, the Brian Hamilton no goal starting it off, then the following year when we finally got it right, the policeman takes Andy Kings moment away with a get off the pitch, fast forward to 84 and Alan Hanson's handball waved away at Wembley, we shall bypass 85 and missing out on a particular cup, we then have Linkers boots misplaced at Oxford, a phantom pot hole at Landsdown Road ending Southalsl season.

Fast forward and you have Dan Goslings winner cut short for a tic tac advert, another moment cut in its prime, then one of our most reliable defenders having a brain freeze and passing the ball back straight into Suarez path, then a ref knocking 30 seconds off his watch as Hutchisons back deflection heads towards an empty net.

Then you have Roger Kenyons crazy own goal in the first league cup final replay, followed by a Darracott howler letting the ball pass him to an unmarked a Little for the winning goal in the second replay.

The last two Anfield derbies where on both occasions in stoppage time, the same keeper makes the same mistake at the same end of the pitch.

So is it a curse, is it just down right rotten luck.

Anyway thought it would make a decent read during the International break.

I did Degsy but we both also forgot Mick Lyons one as well in the Annie road end.

Nice one Lee slipped my mind those yards McCallister pinched.

Don Hutchinson’s goal which ref claims to have blew for full time before it hit the net.

Could be very true.
