I hate this game, I've done no work today just been sat reading every page of this on my phone slyly in my office.
Please win Everton.

Liverpool have not lost a Merseyside derby at Anfield for more than 14 years but memories of that September night in 1999 still burn in Steven Gerrard. That is hardly surprising, given he collected the game's third red card for a thigh-high foul on Kevin Campbell and was later confronted in a restaurant toilet by an angry Everton striker with his trousers around his ankles.
"I had a gut-wrenching pain in my stomach after that defeat. It took a long time to go," the Liverpool captain recalls of a Campbell-inflicted 1-0 reverse. "We'd lost, I'd been sent off but I'd booked a meal at the Albert Dock for afterwards thinking we were going to win the game. I really didn't want to go but at the same time I don't like letting people down so I went with a face on me and the first person I bumped into in the toilet was Kevin Campbell.
"He dropped his kecks and showed me the stud-marks I'd left on his thigh. When you're 19 and there's a man-mountain stood in front of you with a cob-on there's only one thing you can do so I apologised for the tackle and shook his hand."
I try never to get too hopeful in this fixture, but I have a feeling we will do them tonight. Need to
keep Goofy and the Sh*T Dancer quiet and we are half way there
Wonder if their sewer rat will try to do Miralles tonight – hopefully Bobby has a bit of a quiet word with the ref before kick off to keep an eye out
