Geordies call the Toon
Newcastle 0-0 Liverpool
Steve Bruce’s Newcastle
Hold the fort without fear
During the the final game
Of this very strange year
Yet that was the first half
Thiago and Trent combine
Mane’s scrambled effort
Is cleared off the line
Alisson denies Clark
Newcastle remained stable
With Spurs game postponed
We still lead the table

Son of Sams hold the Reds
Liverpool 1-1 West Brom
There’s a few At the Hawthorns
Who’d still rather have Bilic
Free flowing football
Gracing their home pitch
Joel Matip’s long ball
Mane gave it a shake
Firing past Sam Johnstone
But the Baggies wouldn’t break
Ajayi with that late header
Quietened the Red roar
Silence envelopes Anfield
West Brom good for the draw

Pandemonium at the Palace
Crystal Palace 0-7 Liverpool
It’s gone and happened again
Seven goals twice this year
This time Liverpool dish it out
To cruise five points clear
Bobby and Mohamed Salah
Both netting home twice
It’s sheer chaos at the Palace
The Red frontline concise
Minamino got the massacre rolling
Mane on the turn scores again
This is a Red rage bloodbath
Henderson adds to Roy’s pain

Firmino seals it late!
Liverpool 2-1 Tottenham
Salah off Alderweireld
Top spot is at stake
Son returns the favour
It’s one one at the break
Spurs could have nicked it
Bergwijn misses a double
Had it been Son or Kane
It could’ve spelt real trouble
It’s all defence for Mourinho
All out attack for Klopp
Spurs expertly close shop
But Firmino takes us top

Reds denied top spot
Fulham 1-1 Liverpool
Now it’s Diogo Jota
Who joins the injured crop
Klopp’s men miss the chance
To take three points and go top
The Cottagers were dominant
Unsurprisingly taking the lead
Returning fans scream once again
For Bobby Decordova-Reid
Aboubakar Kamara’s free arm
Alphonse Areola unlucky
Fulham looked good for a win
Salah drives low the penalty

Anfield is open again!
Liverpool 4-0 Wolves
Once again the fans return
Anfield is on the go
Singing hard on the Kop
I spot my pal Mario
Salah swoops to score first
Coady with a lapsed header
Anfield erupts in sheer delight
Gini joins in with a cracker
Kelleher solid on his debut
Matip makes it three nil
Semedo beats Mane to it
To send the Reds over the hill

Seagulls nick a point
Brighton 1-1 Liverpool
Neco fells Connolly
Seagulls get an early look
Maupay fails from twelve yards
Potter scribbles his notebook
Dancing two challenges
Jota seems to seal the win
Finding the bottom corner
Nine goals for the new kingpin
But VAR has other ideas
Salah and Mane got done
Controversial late penalty
Pascal Gross makes it one one

Foxes fall at Fortress Anfield
Liverpool 3-0 Leicester
A former United centreback
Jonny Evans scores an own goal
Leicester look to the summit
Brendan is seeking pole
There’s a fitting Reds tribute
For the great man Ray Clemence
Liverpool lead at the break
Jota’s header immense
Diogo’s goal makes history
It needs Bobby to seal the show
Reds unbeaten at Anfield
Sixty four league games in a row

All square at the Etihad
Man City 1-1 Liverpool
Bold with a bold 4-2-4
Klopp sends on the whole lot
Walker sends Mane to the floor
Salah one nil from the spot
Liverpool look electric
A front four having great fun
City are sure to make amends
Jesus nicks one for one one
Gomez falls foul to a penalty
VAR rules for handball
De Bruyne sends it wide
In the end it stays one all

Hi Crispin,
Thanks for the featured poem for the Arsenal Premier League victory. I love that photo showing the Arsenal ladies and fans in full rattle and rosette mode. I’ve seen it before quite a few times and, I think, a bit iconic. I think it was before the Gunners victory against Liverpool in the 1950 FA Cup Final. Great photograph.
Thanks

Thanks for that Joe. Yes it’s been some season we had a blip but came out of it and finished strong. A mate of mine supports West Ham here in Coventry and my next door neighbour is a Spurs supporter, and both are getting edgy ! I like the Championship though as it’s competitive and has some good teams, players, and fans. Anyway we are back in the top flight and who knows what will happen ?
Cheers. Kev.
