This is Anfield, home of Liverpool Football club.
Brief history during the 90's
When Graeme Souness took over Liverpool Football Club in
1991 he had
came from Rangers, where although a success he had caused many
disruptions. In his first full season Souness finished a lowly sixth in
the
league, but the capture of the FA Cup with a 2-0 win over Sunderland
meant that the fans were happy on the football front.
The following season for Liverpool was a
disaster as Liverpool were knocked out of the
FA Cup by Bolton in the third round of the FA Cup
and finished 6th in the league.
When Liverpool were knocked out of the FA Cup the following season by
Bristol City, it was all over for Souness.
The positive side of Souness' reign was the emergence of class youngsters
like Robbie Fowler, Steve McManaman, Jamie Redknapp and Rob Jones.
Although quite often these players were only picked due to the injury crisis
at the club, it was still very valuable for their development.
After Souness' resignation on 28th January 1994, Liverpool once again
looked for someone else and Roy Evans was appointed manager. He
was unable to get any success in the remainder of that season as
Liverpool finished 8th in the league - their worst placing since Bill Shankly's
team gained promotion in 1962. From the start of the next season(1994-95)
Liverpools game improved considerably. In Roy Evans' first full season
Liverpool won the League Cup and finished 4th in the league. Liverpool
have stayed just below the top, promising so much, but delivering so
little.
Even with the emergence of new super star Michael Owen the cup still
elude's us. In 1998 after contributing to his country's World
Cup win, Gerard Houllier teamed up with Roy Evans in a joint
management position. After a matter of only months Roy Evans resigned
leaving Houllier in sole charge of bringing the championship back to it's
home - Anfield . . . . . .
