The following March, the Premier League charged them with breaching rules over third-party ownership and acting in good faith, issuing them with a world-record £5.5m fine. In an impassioned exclusive interview with the ECHO at the time, Benitez said: “I would like to ask the Premier League a number of questions. “He has a document which is clear, but the Premier League prefers to believe the word of someone else who made a mistake. Ian Doyle has covered Liverpool for over 20 years and has reported on finals of the FA Cup, League Cup, Champions League, Europa League and World Cup. “When the Manchester United and Everton games came along, it was like he was a Scouser.

Get our Knowsley newsletter for the best stories, photos, videos and opinionAn urban explorer has given an insight into a once "grand" building with a dark history. Built in the 1850s, Mossley Manor Care Home in Mossley Hill was forced to close back in 2015 after inspectors uncovered a string of failures. But as the historical building awaits its future fate, urban explorer Elliot Ward took viewers on a journey inside the building, before it is potentially lost forever. (Image: Elliot Ward/Nothing But Elliot YouTube)The video takes viewers through the rooms of the once grand building which showed collapsed ceilings, smashed windows, huge piles of rubbish, and equipment just left abandoned in hallways and rooms.

Builders did not record car park payments from Liverpool FC on financial system

A well known Liverpool building company failed to record details of payments from Liverpool Football Club for the use of 137 car park spaces. BICO, set up as a community interest company, was launched in 2014 to manage matchday car parks in north Liverpool used by Liverpool and Everton fans. The audit report from 2015 reveals that the Flanagan Group, operators of the car parks, received £226,890.70 from the company. It reads: "It was noted that the management fee charged for the operation of the car park has varied (both less and more) from the expected 15% as stated in the licence granted by LCC to the Flanagan Group to operate the car park. The original licence sets the management fee at Liverpool City Council – Anfield Car Park - 9 -15%.

I tried karaoke at iconic Liverpool bar that's open seven days a week

1 for a great night out", Woody's sports and karaoke bar has also become something of an institution over the years. Admittedly, it probably wasn't the best time to get the optimum Woody's experience, with only a handful of tables filled as the speakers blasted out Sandi Thom's 'I Wish I Was A Punk Rocker'. The best part of my evening came when I got chatting to Paul, who came up to congratulate me on my mediocre karaoke debut. "I'm not very good on the karaoke but I'm going to give it a good go. Although Woody's is more than 10,000 miles from the Gold Coast, in this little karaoke bar off Concert Square, they couldn't have looked more at home.

Alex Iwobi wins Wilfried Zaha battle as Seamus Coleman answers Frank Lampard concern

Not to be undone, Everton made an alternative raid on the capital for Arsenal man Iwobi, who was over 3,000 miles away at the time, on board a boat in Dubai, but in truth the bulk of his first three years on Merseyside have been choppy waters rather than a pleasure cruise. Marco Silva, Carlo Ancelotti and Rafael Benitez all struggled to get the best out of a player who Arsene Wenger rated highly but since Frank Lampard’s arrival, Iwobi, operating in a different role, has enjoyed a major revival. Any such doubts were dispelled with ease here as, having already come through testing assignments at Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United, Coleman saved the best until last. The difference here was having a fit and firing Dominic Calvert-Lewin, with two forward-thinking wide men either side of him who were also back on form. The goal came from an Iwobi through-ball down the middle but a supply line from the flanks will also be required to get the best out of Calvert-Lewin so much-improved displays from Demarai Gray and Anthony Gordon were perfectly-timed.

Liverpool dealt third straight league defeat as Arsenal dominate front of record crowd

Liverpool succumbed to their third consecutive defeat in the Women's Super League as visitors Arsenal cruised to the top of the table with a 2-0 win on Merseyside. Liverpool could take little heart from their previous clashes with the North London club, having lost each of their last six Barclays WSL matches against Arsenal, netting just three times while conceding 20 goals.

Under a wave of Arsenal pressure, Liverpool seemed to lose their early composure and quickly found themselves 2-0 down after a goal from Frida Maanum. To Liverpool’s credit, they battled on and had a few decent passages of play without troubling Arsenal goalkeeper Manuela Zinsberger.
