Former Reds Captain & Legend, Tommy Smith on Bob Paisley:
“If Bill Shankly was the Anfield foreman, Bob Paisley was the brickie, a man ready to build an empire with his own hands.” #LFC#YNWA#Liverpool 🏆🏆🏆
This is Callum Peacock. He battered his girlfriend with a golf club, threw bleach and paint at her, and burned a memorial shirt of her deceased grandmother but has avoided an immediate prison sentence.
The 19-year-old defendant, from St Helens, subjected his partner to a cruel three-hour ordeal inside their home.
Police officers arrived at the flat to find the victim covered in white paint and curled up in a ball on the bathroom floor.
She was audibly sobbing and shrieking through a hole in the door, which was still smouldering and smoking.
During the assault, the teenager hit her with a broom handle and a golf club before putting her in a chokehold from behind.
When she tried to hide in the bathroom, he smashed the door with the golf club and used an aerosol and a lighter to set fire to it.
He then threw dumbbells and a bottle of bleach at her, causing the liquid to splash onto her body.
In what was described in court as an extremely selfish act, he took hold of a memorial t-shirt featuring a photograph of her deceased grandmother.
He set fire to the garment right in front of her while telling her that her nan would rot in hell.
The attack came just two days after another incident where he struck his girlfriend with a hammer following an argument.
Following his arrest, he openly threatened his victim in front of police officers, stating that he was going to smash her face in when he got out.
But he has now walked free from court after a judge handed him an 18-month imprisonment suspended for 18 months.
The court heard he had already spent nearly five months in custody on remand, which the judge noted was the equivalent of a nine-month sentence for a teenager with no previous convictions.
He was also given a five-year restraining order and a rehabilitation activity requirement of up to 20 days.
Another kick in the teeth, metaphorically speaking to the brave young woman who endured his cowardly attacks.
The justice in this country cares more about the accused than the victims.
This is possibly the saddest thing I've seen in a long time..an immigrant nurse talking about fleeing her home..she saved her UNIFORM. So she could still WORK for our communities.
I'd fill this country with a thousand of this woman than one of those good for nothing thugs.
God help this poor woman.
#HowardGayle Liverpool fan's know, the Greatest Black Player for LFC was John Barnes. But before, came Toxteth born Howard Gayle. Who without his performance in the 1981 European Cup Semi Final, the Club wouldn't have won its 3rd Cup in 1981. Howard Gayle 1st Black Scouse Hero.
On the ten year anniversary of his death, Muhammad Ali is remembered as a boxing icon, devout Muslim and fearless activist.
Born in the segregated American South, he refused to fight in Vietnam, defied white supremacy, and became a global symbol of anti-racism and resistance.
🔴 Jamie Carragher has been left flabbergasted that Xabi Alonso was not named as Liverpool's new manager, with the club opting for Andoni Iraola instead:
🗣️ "If Liverpool chose Iraola over Alonso, it's very worrying."
🗣️ "If it's because Alonso wants to play a back three, or his style of play, fair enough. But I am not sure Liverpool have the players to play Iraola's high-pressing game."
Has he got this one spot on or completely wrong here? 🤔
Not supporting anything to do with this, but Sikhs are of a norm good, Peaceful people, who keep there heads down, and work hard. The Perpetrator has been given Life what more do people want. He won't see daylight for twenty years, and this has destroyed both innocent families.
This is the level of violence in Southampton tonight, stirred up by the far right, from Tommy Robinson on the streets to Nigel Farage.
This isn’t about honouring the memory of Henry Nowak.
This is all about promoting their divisive agenda & splitting our communities.
Won that Cup Final virtually on hois O Own he was so good that day ? So much for Super Mc Malcolm Mcdonald. Tommy Smith kicked him once and he vanished after that. Keegan did the same in Rome 77 to Berti Vogts ran him ragged.
Julia Hartley - Brewer has to be the nastiest ! "thick as Pig Shit" Woman allowed to be on the Radio. Proper Far Right, Ugly Facist !! Get her off our Airwaves, with her nasty rhetoric.

@empireofthekop@BBCSport Dead man walking sad to see, fans have turned, Player's aren't playing for him, and pundits are having a field day mocking him. Not nice to see but no game plans, Player's unfit, and worst stats across the board. Well out of his depth thank him and change ASAP.
@empireofthekop@BBCSport Nice man Slott but you can't go on sentiment he should be applaud for helping Liverpool win it's 20th League Title, and be allowed to leave with respect. He is well out of his depth at Liverpool, and only won the League because of a last hurrah of Klopps team.
Yvette Cooper is to visit China during the Summer, to enhance government relationships. Maybe she could visit Liverpool + the Oldest Chinese Community in Western Europe. Once a thriving restaurant, tourist Hot -Spot. Lack of investment for decades, needs addressing Yvette.
