Download or read book There She Goes written by Simon Hughes and published by deCoubertin Books. This book was released on 2019-09-26 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Liverpool was once one of the greatest cities in the British empire but it no longer feels like it is in England, if it ever did. It had retreated as a significant port after the Second World War and by 1979, it was already on the brink. What it needed was support but instead, a Conservative Party with aggressive new ideas allowed it to slide. Thirty-years after the Toxteth Riots, classified government papers revealed that the prime minister, Margaret Thatcher, was urged to abandon the city and embark on a programme of 'managed decline'. Why did Liverpool's fortunes change so dramatically? Why did it fight back when other cities did not? This is the untold story of what it was like for Liverpool's people and how the period defines who they are.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This official Liverpool FC publication celebrates 50 of the greatest goals witnessed in the Reds' fantastic history Ian Rush, Roger Hunt, Billy Liddell, Michael Owen, Robbie Fowler, Steven Gerrard, John Barnes, Fernando Torres, Luis Suarez, Kevin Keegan. . . the list goes on. Liverpool Football Club has been blessed with some truly great players during its 120-year history, all of whom have scored some fabulous goals. The 50 greatest goals witnessed at Anfield, and beyond, have been selected from throughout the Club's history. Few clubs in the world can match Liverpool FC's record of 18 League Championships, seven FA Cups, eight Football League Cups, three UEFA Cups, and five prestigious European Cups, plus the UEFA Super Cup and many FA Charity/Community Shields. The goals have been arranged chronologically so the reader can rate his or her own favorites. Each entry features a description of the goal, both in terms of the build up play, the wider context of the match, and its place in history. And every entry features at least one photograph of the goal in question, which will bring back great memories for those who were there and bring the goal vividly to life for those who weren't. Among the 50 chosen goals are superb team goals, such as Kevin Keegan's in the 1974 FA Cup final against Newcastle United, dynamic breakaway goals like Terry McDermott's header against Tottenham Hotspur in 1978 (rated by Bob Paisley, at the time, as probably the best in Liverpool's history), fabulous strikes such as Steven Gerrard's against Manchester United in 2001, and wonderful solo efforts like John Barnes' against Queens Park Rangers in 1987 and Steve McManaman's against Celtic in 1997. There are even a few goals from Liverpool's earlier history, such as the first of the 215 goals Billy Liddell scored for the Reds (against Chester in January 1946), and the debut goal of one of Liverpool's most prolific goal scorers, Roger Hunt (against Scunthorpe United in September 1959).
Download or read book The Miracle of Istanbul written by John M. Williams and published by Mainstream Publishing Company. This book was released on 2005 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After 20 years off the major European football stage, Liverpool FC, under new Spanish manager Rafael Benitez, faced utter humiliation at half-time in the 2005 Champions League final in Istanbul. Three goals down to the brutally efficient and talented AC Milan, the inexperienced new Liverpool - an uneasy mix of local heroes, young Spaniards and soon-to-be-outcasts - was staring down the barrel of a possible record European Cup final defeat in front of 40,000 of its own fans and a global TV audience of hundreds of millions. That is until six extraordinary minutes of second-half carnage, allied to Red courage and resolve, changed the very course of European football history and mapped a new direction for the future of a club with a magnificent European past.The Miracle of Istanbul offers an insight into the many foreign highs and domestic lows of the amazing 2004-05 Liverpool season, as well as mapping out key connections between the great Liverpool European legacy of the 1970s and '80s and the new Benitez era - via a detour of the ultimately doomed Gerard Houllier period of initial Continental Liverpool management. It also looks at some of the key players of the recent successful European campaign - Gerrard, Hamman, Carragher and the erratic Jerzy Dudek among them - and at the music and football cultures in the city that have uniquely shaped what is still known locally as the Liverpool Way. The book compares the new Liverpool manager with his key rivals: his Iberian 'cousin' Jose Mourhino at Chelsea and the fiercely competitive David Moyes at neighbours Everton. But it ends - as it must - on that glorious night of 25 May in Istanbul, with fans' recollections and memories. It also asks: exactly what does the 2005 European triumph mean for the city of Liverpool and for the future direction of Liverpool football club under its modest but impressive new Spanish leadership?
