Home Alone - Great film and reminds me of my childhood.

Often left behind to deal with robbers while your parents went on holiday were you?

In the corridors and changing rooms of Anfield I met many people - the great, the talented, the legendary.  I know that I only met one genius.  He was a small, smiling man with a neatly clipped beard.  His name was Rafael Benitez.

Home Alone and Home Alone 2 (the best one) will always be my favourite Xmas movies. Reminds me of Christmas as a kid. Watch them each year, and will continue to do so until the day I die!

I got the new Christmas Carol film the other day, with Jim Carrey, I thought it was brilliant.
He wasn't perfect, he made mistakes. But he was genuine. He had the best interests of the club at heart, and gave us a plethora of successful teams that we should have been thankful for.

Saw a film on-line this past weekend, can't remember the name but it had Miss Claus and about 30 'elves' doing some un-holy things to Mrs Claus, not very Christmassy at all.

I trust the King, but if we lose a few more on the trot now - he may have to step aside, and we have to purchase another manager in the middle of the season. If we are relegated, this could be the end of our ambitions to win any title the next 100 years.
