Finding random newspaper clippings in old books isn't that weird, although this one surprised me, probably because I know how it ended-and the book in question was about a decade old by the time Ruffian was running. But reading this.... especially the bit about going down in turf history as a great sport spectacular....ouch

(transcribed article below the cut)

NEW YORK (AP) - Ruffian faces the supreme test of her fabulous career in a $350,000 match race against Foolish Pleasure at Belmont Park today.

The unbeaten 3-year-old filly, proclaimed by many as the greatest of her sex in turf annals, is favored to make it 11 in a row by whipping the winner of the Kentucky Derby in this battle of the sexes that has quickened the heartbeat of horse lovers.

The 1 1/4-mile sports spectacular is expected to lure a record crowd of 83,000 and go down in turf history as one of the great sports spectaculars. Post time is about 6 p.m. EDT, and the race will be nationally televised by CBS.

Ruffian, known for her effortless style of running, has been on top all the way in each of her 10 starts. That is why she has been proclaimed by some as the greatest filly of all time.

Still, because the daughter of Reviewer has raced only against her own sex, many believe she can prove her supremacy only by beating Foolish Pleasure.

It will be a stern test.

"Ruffian's tough, but we're going to test her," Leroy Jolley, trainer of Foolish Pleasure, said. "The only way to beat her is to run with her. We'll test her all right."

Since most match races have been won by the lead horse, it seems that Jacinto Vasquez, Ruffian's jockey, and Braulio Baeza, astride Foolish Pleasure, will bust out of the gate lickity split and stage a speed duel to get in front.

"I've done everything I know to make her ready," said veteran trainer Frank Whiteley Jr., after Ruffian's recent five-furlong work in :58 1/5 seconds. Clockers termed it "easy work."

Foolish Pleasure has been a come-from-behind runner this year, but "Don't forget," said Jolley, "as a 2-year-old last year when he was unbeaten, most folks thought he was just a speedball who wouldn't get the classic distances."

Foolish Pleasure's last start was in the Belmont Stakes at 1½ miles on June 7 where he lost to Avatar by a neck in 2:28 1/5. Ruffian also ran in the Coaching Club American Oaks June 21, also at 1½ miles, which she won by nearly three lengths in 2:27 4/5.

Ruffian, a Kentucky homebred owned by Stuart Janney, Jr. of Maryland, has earned $313,429 in her 10 starts. She can add $225,000 to that if she beats Foolish Pleasure. If not, she gets the loser's share of $125,000.

Week 14: Beetroot, Bets, and Beats

G’day folks,

It's been yet another week of primarily studying. However, spending time on campus has its perks. The food selection right outside the library amazes me, particularly the cafe outside the lower food court. Sweet potato and beetroot salad have become my favorite dish. 

I’ve also found a deep love for the horse blinder-style cubicles in the back on the 2nd floor of the Main Library. They have a warm, bright light that falls on a rich green pattern. They also have the perfect width and depth to spread out your elbows and computer for any position you're inspired to pose in. I think it's obvious where I spend most of my time these days. 

If schoolwork didn’t feel like enough, another concern I’ve been managing is how I will spend my summer. On Wednesday, I spent nearly the entire day on LinkedIn and in professors’ research, and then I cold-emailed them for work or research opportunities this summer. 

I’ve found ways to break up the work this week, or instead, my friends have successfully dragged me out of my studying stupor several times for a change of scenery. On Thursday, my roommate Sam’s family invited us to their Airbnb for dinner and card games. They were visiting for the week and wanted to meet all the kids that have traveled and lived with their daughter. The hours passed quicker than they had in the past two weeks as we all reminisced on the months of travel and late nights that had brought us all so much closer than I think any of us could have imagined. 

On Saturday, I had the first blog-worthy day since Vietnam! We met Sam’s parents at Sydney’s Australian Turf Club (horse derby). The track and stadium are across from the UNSW campus and are a weekly spectacle. It was all our first derbies, so we put on the nicest clothes we owned (another first) and jauntily strolled through the gates. Then, far off in the distance, a man started energetically waving at us to exit and go around. We had walked along the driveway leading into the stadium, which was about a kilometer from the walking entrance. Anyway, we made it and had a blast people-watching. It felt like we had stumbled upon the high society of Sydney. Everyone was wearing suits and dresses and perceptive glances. 

We spent the day placing paper bets with the best names on the horses and enjoying the first sun of the week. We left towards the end of the derby and headed home for a nap. That night, we went out to Club 77 because people online were framing it as the best club in Sydney. It felt underground, but for a reason: the music was uninteresting, with the same few beats repeated for minutes that felt like hours. We left before we could sink any more time into that place and decided to try out Scary Canary. 

This club/bar had the best DJ I've ever heard at that place, and time had never flown by so quickly. Afterward, we all unanimously felt it was the best club we had been to; it's just a shame that we discovered it so late into our trip.

Thank you all for reading! I’ve got one last week of studying and submitting assignments before heading to Thailand. 

Take care,

Recent Years Hype in Horse Racing Popularity in India

Introduction:

In recent years, India has witnessed a remarkable surge in the popularity of horse racing. Once considered a niche sport, horse racing has now galloped into the mainstream, captivating the attention of enthusiasts, investors, and the general public alike. This blog explores the factors driving this newfound hype in horse racing across India, exploring the sport's rich history, evolving landscape, and promising future.

A Glimpse into the Past:

Horse racing in India boasts a rich heritage dating back centuries. Introduced during the colonial era by the British, the sport initially catered to the elite class and royalty. Over time, it evolved into a spectacle of grandeur and prestige, with iconic racecourses such as the Mahalaxmi Racecourse in Mumbai and the Bangalore Turf Club becoming synonymous with glamour and excitement. However, horse racing remained confined to a select audience for many years, with limited mainstream appeal.

The Turning Tide:

In recent years, there has been a noticeable shift in the perception and popularity of horse racing in India. Several factors have contributed to this resurgence, chief among them being the democratization of the sport. With digital media and online betting platforms, horse racing has become more accessible to a broader audience, transcending geographical boundaries and socioeconomic barriers. This accessibility has played a pivotal role in attracting a new generation of enthusiasts eager to experience the thrill of the turf.

Furthermore, strategic marketing initiatives and promotional campaigns have helped rebrand horse racing as a vibrant and inclusive sport. Events such as the Indian Derby and the Indian Turf Invitation Cup have gained widespread attention, drawing crowds from all walks of life. Infusing entertainment elements such as live music performances, fashion shows, and culinary extravaganzas has transformed race days into immersive experiences, appealing to families and millennials alike.

The Rise of Sporting Icons:

Another catalyst for the surge in horse racing popularity has been the emergence of charismatic jockeys and champion thoroughbreds. Talented riders such as Suraj Narredu, P. Trevor, and A. Sandesh have become household names and are celebrated for their skill and athleticism on the track. Likewise, legendary horses like Desert God, Serjeant At Arms, and Adjudicate have captured the imagination of fans with their awe-inspiring performances, elevating the sport to new heights of excitement and intrigue.

Moreover, the growing prominence of Indian horses on the international stage has generated considerable buzz and national pride. With notable victories in prestigious races abroad, Indian racing enthusiasts have found renewed confidence in indigenous bloodstock's quality and potential, fueling global recognition and success aspirations.

Investment and Infrastructure:

The recent surge in horse racing popularity has also spurred significant investment in infrastructure and facilities. Racecourse modernization projects, training academies, and state-of-the-art stabling facilities have transformed the ecosystem, enhancing the welfare of horses and improving the overall race day experience. Additionally, collaborations with international racing jurisdictions have facilitated knowledge exchange and benchmarking, fostering a culture of excellence and innovation within the industry.

Challenges and Opportunities:

While the future of horse racing in India appears promising, it has not. Regulatory hurdles, taxation issues, and animal welfare concerns remain areas of contention that require careful consideration and resolution. Furthermore, maintaining the delicate balance between tradition and modernization poses a continuous challenge for stakeholders seeking to preserve the sport's legacy while embracing technological advancements and evolving consumer preferences.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, the recent surge in horse racing popularity in India represents a dynamic convergence of tradition, innovation, and aspiration. With increasing accessibility, strategic marketing efforts, and investments in infrastructure, the sport has transcended its elitist origins to become a vibrant cultural phenomenon with mass appeal. As India continues its journey towards becoming a global sporting powerhouse, the renaissance of horse racing serves as a testament to the nation's enduring passion for excellence and adventure on the turf.

You could Tella the difference right from the start

Before we go into the inquest lets put a bit of context around this result. Burnley are, by far, the best team in the Championship and will be promoted as Champions come May 8th. In normal circumstances this result could have been taken on the chin, tough as that may be with a derby game, and we could have moved on. The problem we have, of course, is that things are now beginning to turn toxic with the manager with some alarming similarities to the stance taken by some fans with regards to Peter Ridsdale's position within the club. The positions of Lowe and Ridsdale at North End is another debate for another so lets just concentrate on the football for now and the fact North End were comprehensive outclassed in every position on the Park and were probably a tad lucky only to lose by three goals. Although we closed down well early on, from the minute Tella opened the scoring after quarter of an hour there was only ever one result. One down at the break and three down after an hour North End were really up against it as the Clarets romped home with plenty to spare in the most one sided game, between these two sides, I have seen in my fifty seven years watching the club.

North End made one change from the side beaten by Bristol City last week with the completely ineffective Woodburn coming in for the suspended Ched Evans. North End started solidly and closed down well early on but it was clear from the start that the Burnley wide players of Tella and Zaroury were going to cause us plenty of problems and that it was going to be a long afternoon. With just fifteen minutes gone a Brownhill cross from the left found Tella unmarked in the box and he headed home to give Burnley the lead. North End countered and had their one shot on target in the first half through Browne. Woodman then saved superbly from Barnes as the home side dominated and Woodman was again called into action to save from Zaroury. North End were still in the game as the teams went in at half time but to be honest I just could not see where a Preston goal was coming from.

Ryan Lowe made two changes at the break with Whiteman and Parrott coming on for Woodburn and Ledson. Again North End opened the half well but when Tella beat Lindsay before firing home past Woodman the game was over with only ten minutes gone in the second half. Things went from bad to worse for North End and a few minutes later Tella latched on to a through ball and fired home underneath Woodman to complete his hat-trick and ensure Burnley won their tenth game on the trot in the Championship. Fortunately for North End Burley eased off a little after the third goal and were content to do a little bit of showboating of the skills at the disposal of Vincent Kompany. The North End bench were conspicuous by their absence for the final part of the game and the picture doing the rounds on Social Media painted a thousand words of the North End staff at Turf Moor.

This was only North End`s fourth League defeat on the road this season and as was said earlier it could almost be excused if our home form had been anything like. North End looked weak in the tackle, devoid of creative ideas, lacking inspiration and several other observations which are not really fit for inclusion on a social blog. Clearly something must change and change quickly. Burnley are already selling their early bird tickets for next season and you just wonder how many season cards North End would sell if they were to go on sale at this moment. I cannot really remember apathy such as is present amongst the fan base being at such a high level for a Preston team in the Championship. Make no mistake many have had enough and the club wont get them back until something very strategic happens at Preston North End. Until then we will have to just plod on and with three out of the next four games at home you feel its now or never for more than just North Ends faltering play off aspirations.

The Eclipse Awards are named for Eclipse, a legendary 18th-century British racehorse who went 18-for-18 in his two-year career. His pedigree married two of the three Thoroughbred foundation stallions—the Godolphin Arabian and the Darley Arabian—and Eclipse can be found deep in the pedigrees of many of today’s racehorses.

Liverpool: 2019-20 Premier League Champions

30 years of hope: my life as an ardent Liverpool fan

After three decades of near misses, slips and tears, the Merseyside team’s wait for another league title is nearly over. So what does it mean to a scouser and lifelong fan?

by Hannah Jane Parkinson

I am three years old in the photograph, hugging a plastic, flyaway football. I am seven, arriving tentatively for my first training session at a local girls’ club. I am bounding back to my mother’s car, blowing hot breath on cold hands, beaming, the salt from the artificial turf embedded in the soles of my trainers.

I am eight and glued to the television, watching teen wunderkind and my Liverpool hero, Michael Owen, score the perfect goal against Argentina in World Cup 98.

I am nine. I give up one of the few days I have to visit my father to attend my first ever match at Anfield, Liverpool FC’s famous stadium. A week later, my father dies. These two events are inextricably linked in my mind, and the guilt continues to whichever day you are reading this.

I am 10 and make my first appearance in print in a feature for the local paper, the Liverpool Echo, about girls getting into football. I am quoted as saying that all my sister cares about is boys and fashion.

Twelve years old and the fuzzy letters of “Parkinson” on the back of my shirt arch down my shoulder blades.

I am 13. Our team, known as Liverpool Feds, are approached by Liverpool FC to become their official girls’ outfit. We visit Melwood, the first team’s training ground. The full-size goals loom like scaffolding.

I am 14. My hero, Owen, makes the same move to Real Madrid that Steve McManaman made five years before him. This breaks my heart. Suddenly, all I care about is boys and fashion. Without really making a decision, I give up football. Cold winter nights are spent inside on the sofa watching Sex and the City. I discover live music and MySpace.

I am 15. I own the entire range of Clearasil products. A group of my schoolfriends and I take a night off GCSE revision to watch the 2005 European Champions League final in Istanbul; the first the club has reached since the mid-80s, and so it is forbidden not to watch. Liverpool are losing by three goals at half time. A lost cause. Minds wander to the second biology paper… But wait. Liverpool pull back to 3-3. And win on penalties. Pandemonium. We join the throng in the streets; the blaring car horns; the beer jumping, like salmon, from pint glasses; the embrace of strangers; the straining vocal cords.

I am 18 and living in Russia, watching games on my first-generation smartphone via a 2G internet connection. Each time a player goes through on goal the signal drops to endless buffering. Liverpool finish second in the league, four points behind bitter rivals Manchester United.

I am 26, we are bearing down on the title. Steven Gerrard in an impromptu on-pitch team talk, after a crucial win against the newly flush Manchester City, shouts hoarsely at his players: “This does not fucking slip now!” The next home game, Gerrard – one of the best players the club has ever seen, captain, scouser, Liverpool FC lifer – literally slips on the turf against Chelsea to concede a goal. We lose. Manchester City finish top of the league by two points.

I am 29. I am in Cuba, where the internet is heavily censored. But I manage to watch the last game of the season, which will be decisive. Liverpool finish the league with 97 points; the highest points tally ever for a team that doesn’t win the title. City win again. With 98 points. Liverpool do, however, win the Champions League – for the sixth time – after scoring four goals in a sublime semi-final comeback against Barcelona. The injured Mohamed Salah, watching on the bench, wears a T-shirt bearing the slogan “Never Give Up”. The T-shirt sells out.

I am 30. I have never witnessed my beloved Liverpool FC lift the title. Two months from now, this is going to change. As I write Liverpool have a 22-point lead at the top of the table. Of 84 points available this season, they have taken 79. Next Monday is the derby against Everton.

I want to untangle what this will mean to me – the fan who met Steven Gerrard a couple of years ago, grinning like a child; the fan who, two weeks ago, was unbelievably touched when current star Trent Alexander-Arnold recorded a video message to cheer her up during a bad time. What it means to other fans: those who witnessed the dominance of the 1980s, and the younger ones who have known only disappointment. And what it means, too, for the future of the area of Anfield itself.

It’s late February in the Flat Iron pub, one of the many dotted around Anfield. Steve Dodd, who is 49, is with his friends Dan Wynn, 26, and Gerrard Noble, 47. All from Somerset, they are having a pre-match drink before the home game against West Ham. Steve talks of the current Jürgen Klopp-assembled side as the best Liverpool side he thinks he’s ever seen.

The friends have been scouring the internet for places to stay in the city for the last home fixture of the season, but to no avail. “Rooms are going for £400 a night,” Gerrard says, his eyes widening. He and Steve are allowing themselves to get excited, but Dan, who like me has yet to experience a league title win, looks anxious and rubs his thighs. “No,” he says, “I don’t want to jinx it. Though I’ve been kicked out of various WhatsApp groups for being smug about all the results.” Steve tells me they weren’t prepared for it, this three-decade-long wait: “I just thought we’d go on winning.”

We talk about how important it is that Klopp’s politics match the club: Liverpool is a leftwing city; Liverpool is a leftwing club. At the last election, Labour retained all of its 14 MPs on Merseyside. The city has never forgiven the Tories for former chancellor Geoffrey Howe’s strategy of “managed decline”. Thatcher is a hated figure. But so is Derek Hatton, the former city council deputy leader and member of the Marxist group Militant. Last month, Italy’s rightwing politician Matteo Salvini was forced to deny that he had pulled out of a visit to Liverpool after the metropolitan region’s mayor called him a “fascist”. During several games last year, chants rang out for Jeremy Corbyn. The current prime minister conspicuously avoids visiting. As Gareth Robertson, who is a part of the immensely popular The Anfield Wrap podcast, with more than 200,000 weekly downloads in 200 countries, puts it to me: “Not only do we want a good football coach, we expect almost a political leader, someone who gets us, and our city, its values.” Humorously, there have been petitions for Liverpool to become a self-determined scouse state, and “Scouse not English” is a frequent terrace chant.

The club has a mantra: “This means more.” It pisses off other teams and is, understandably, dismissed as marketing speak. But isn’t it true? Isn’t the 127-year-old club what people think of when anyone, anywhere in the world, mentions “Liverpool”? The famous football team that plays in red – allowing for the Beatles, of course.

The city has another team, the blue of Everton. I have nothing against Everton. I consider Everton fellow scousers and too little a threat to focus animosity towards. In a way, the clubs are unruly siblings; we love and scrap in equal measure. Totally different personalities, but born of the same streets.

Four years ago, a man named Jürgen Klopp arrived on these streets. Or more accurately, he arrived in the suburb of Formby, renting the house from his managerial predecessor, Brendan Rodgers. Klopp is the football manager that even non-football fans like. He’s Ludovico Einaudi, seducing those previously uninterested in classical music. He is a man of principle; a baseball cap permanently affixed to his head, as though at any point he might be required to step up to the plate on a blindingly sunny day. Perhaps for the Boston Red Sox, owned by Liverpool FC’s American proprietor, John W Henry.

Klopp is erudite. He is proudly anti-Brexit in a city that voted 58% Remain. “For me, Brexit makes no sense at all,” he has said. He is a socialist: “I am on the left … I believe in the welfare state. I’m not privately insured. I would never vote for a party because they promised to lower the top tax rate. If there’s something I will never do in my life it is vote for the right.” He grew up in a humble village in Germany’s Black Forest, and it shows. There’s a saying in the region: “the hair in the soup”. It means focusing on even the tiniest things that can be improved.

He has the good looks of one of my favourite 1960s Russian film stars, Aleksandr Demyanenko. He hugs his players as though they were the loves of his life and he might never see them again. Journalists like him for his press-conference banter as well as his eloquence. He visits children in hospitals. He is funny. When Mario Götze, one of his star players at former club Borussia Dortmund, left for Pep Guardiola’s Bayern Munich, his explanation was: “He’s leaving because he’s Guardiola’s favourite. If it’s anyone’s fault, it’s mine. I can’t make myself shorter and learn Spanish.”

Liverpool have had many famous managers, of course. Bill Shankly (there’s a statue of him outside the ground); Bob Paisley (ditto); Kenny Dalglish. But Klopp is already being talked of as one of the best ever.

Liverpool the city has evolved from its shamefully prominent role in the slave trade – in common with other major British ports – to a place with a diverse population and a well-won reputation for being friendly and welcoming. But the tragedy and scandal of Hillsborough, in which 96 fans were crushed to death in 1989 at Sheffield Wednesday’s ground, is etched into the nation’s sporting history, and its social justice record. After a 27-year-long battle to clear the names of the Liverpool fans whose reputations were smeared, after inquests that lasted two years – the longest case heard by a jury in British legal history – a verdict of unlawful killing was returned. But, as Margaret Aspinall of the indefatigable Hillsborough Family Support Group pointed out, after David Duckenfield, police commander at the ground, was cleared of manslaughter last year, no one has yet been found accountable for those killings.

The Sun, which categorically did not report “The Truth”, as the infamous headline went, but was found to have published untruths that blamed Liverpool fans for the disaster, is a red-top pariah here. The paper is the bestselling national in print, but shifts a measly 12,000 or so copies on Merseyside. A branch of Sainsbury’s was once found to be selling copies under the counter, as though they were counterfeit cigarettes. It’s a boycott that has lasted longer than many marriages.

The socially progressive values of the club extend to it supporting an end to period poverty – free sanitary products are available in every women’s loo at Anfield. Last month, the Reds Going Green initiative saw the installation of organic machines to break down food waste into water. The club even has its own allotment, which grows food to serve to fans in the main stand. It was the first Premier League club to be officially involved with an LGBT Pride event in 2012, at the invitation of Paul Amann. Amann tells me how he set up the LGBT supporters group, Kop Outs, because: “It’s essential that our voices are heard, our presence is welcomed and respected.” The group works alongside the Spirit of Shankly supporters’ group and the Fans Supporting Foodbanks initiative and has regular meet-ups. These things mean something to me: a football fan as a girl, and now as a woman. A woman who dates other women. A woman who doesn’t want to hear homophobic chants on the terraces. Or, it goes without saying, racist ones. Jamie Carragher, ex-player and pundit, has apologised on behalf of the club for its backing of striker Luis Suárez, who was banned from playing for eight matches in 2011 for making racist comments. “We made a massive mistake,” Carragher said. “What message do you send to the world? Supporting someone being banned because he used some racist words.”

Back on the pitch, some of this season’s performances have been, quite simply, balletic. Others as powerful and muscular as a weightlifting competition. Formations as beautiful as constellations. Forward surges as though our fullbacks were plugged into the mains. Possibly the best fullbacks playing today: 21-year-old local lad Trent Alexander-Arnold (known just as Trent) and the fiery Scot Andy Robertson (Robbo) are spoken about by pundits as innovators. Gary Lineker and I text, rapturously, about the two of them.

For a football team to be consistent, for a team to win the league, it must be capable of winning in many different ways. The aesthetically pleasing playing out from the back. Lightning counter-attacks. Scraping 1-0 wins in the final minutes (and, particularly at the start of this season, we have done a lot of that. It’s something Manchester United used to do in their 90s pomp, and naturally, I hated them for it). Mindful of the trauma of The Slip, the agreed club line is “one game at a time”, said again and again, as another scouse son, Pete Burns, once sang: “like a record baby, right round, round, round… ” And my God, how many of those we’ve smashed. The current side is the first in England to hold an international treble (the Champions League; Uefa Super Cup; Fifa Club World Cup). We have not lost a home game for almost two calendar years. Shortly, we’ll no doubt break the record for the earliest title win during a season; the most points across Europe’s top five leagues.

It is, even to the neutral, extraordinary stuff. It is, even to the haters, albeit grudgingly, extraordinary stuff. In 2016, one of the greatest stories of modern football was the previously mediocre Leicester City winning a surprise title. Liverpool’s dominance this season surpasses that for drama. It is watching history in the present.

Being at a game at Anfield is like being high while ingesting nothing. The stands seem to have lungs. Though You’ll Never Walk Alone has become supremely emotional, an anthem for strength and perseverance post-Hillsborough (“walk on through the wind / walk on through the rain”) it’s a song originally from the musical Carousel. It was a standout 1963 cover version by Liverpudlian band Gerry and the Pacemakers that kicked off its adoption at Anfield. “It’s got a lot of lovely major-to-minor changes at often unexpected moments that have the effect of emotionally blindsiding you,” music journalist Pete Paphides says (although he’s a United fan, so feel free to discount everything he tells me). “But it’s also obviously very hymnal, with a chorus which invites that religious ambiguity. It was Aretha Franklin’s version that John Peel played after Hillsborough and rendered himself incapable of carrying on by virtue of doing so.”

Anfield has always been something special; players from countless teams often talk of it being the greatest ground they have ever played at. Or the most intimidating. Or the most electric. But of late, there’s an extra buoyancy. The crowd salivates.

Watching the game against West Ham, we take the lead within 10 minutes, but they quickly equalise, before going ahead. We score twice more. It is our 21st consecutive home win, setting a Premier League-era record. At the end of the game, Klopp and his players applaud the Kop end, fans’ eyes glistening with both emotion and wind chill (“walk on, through the wind… ”)

Adjacent to the stadium at the redbrick Albert pub, Clara, Tom, John – all in their 20s, students, and local – and John’s dad, David, who is 53, are cheering the last-ditch win. I repeat what I asked Steve and his friends: just how excited should we all be?

“Very fucking excited,” says John. “Very fucking excited,” Tom concurs. (Scousers use swear words as ellipses. And the speed of Liverpudlian patter matches the rat-a-tat-tat of freestyle rappers.) The Albert is floor-to-ceiling in flags; unassuming from the outside, iconic inside. Across the road at the Park – the “Established 1888” sign above its door – it is Where’s Wally? levels of rammed, entirely usual for a match day. But the mood is as disbelieving as triumphant. It hasn’t happened yet, but it already feels as though people are waiting to be shaken awake from a dream. Around the corner, posters at another fan favourite, the Sandon, advertise a huge end-of-season victory party. I grab a burger at the Kop of the Range, a kebab joint not far from a scarf stall that has seen its business rocket over the past three years.

My Uber driver, Mohamed, 35, moved to the city from Sri Lanka. A massive Salah fan, he tells me his own revenue booms when the club win a game – happier fans means higher fares. “People don’t want to spend money on a loss,” he says. “If we win, the whole mood lifts. You can feel it in the car. Though when you start driving with Uber, they tell you not to mention what football team you support. Because football means a lot to people. There are many feelings involved with football.”

It’s unsurprising to me that even back in Sri Lanka, Mohamed was a fan. Liverpool is a global behemoth. The richest club in the UK outside Manchester.

A £1.7bn valuation; £533m turnover; pre-tax profits of £42m. Matchday ticket revenues increased (thanks to a regenerated £110m main stand). Visiting the club shop, there is LFC-branded gin; babygros; even a Hello Kitty tie-in range. As Richard Haigh at consultants Brand Finance tells me, next season’s kit deal with Nike is “expected to represent the largest in history. Brands will be willing to pay to have some magic dust of LFC.” There are official stores as far afield as Dubai and Bangkok.

John W Henry has won the support of the fans for his positive handling of the club. And yet, despite this huge wealth, Anfield is the 10th most deprived neighbourhood in the country. Boarded-up houses surround the stadium. The club has not covered itself in glory in the past, accused of buying up properties in unscrupulous ways. But it is hoped that local enterprises, such as the community-run Homebaked cake shop and new housing association properties, will make the neighbourhood better.

Last week, we were knocked out of the FA Cup in a match against Chelsea. Or, as I call that fixture, Kensington versus Kensington. (In Liverpool’s “Kenny”, 98% of residents are among the most deprived 5% nationally. In London’s, residents earn three times the national average.)

In the league, there has been a blip. Last weekend we finally lost. And we lost 3-0 to, with the greatest respect, Watford; not a bad side, but a side ensconced in a relegation battle. Arsenal, who once went a whole season unbeaten (“the Invincibles”), and are keen to keep that record, tweeted from the official club account: “Phew!”

But I am not panicking. It’s possible Dan from the Flat Iron is panicking. But Klopp isn’t panicking. In typical fashion, he said the fact we played an absolutely awful game of football was “rather positive… ”

“A couple of years ago,” our hero reminds us, “I said we wanted to write our own stories and create our own history, and obviously the boys took what I said really seriously. It is so special. The numbers are incredible.” In a nod to Sir Alex Ferguson’s famous line that his greatest challenge was “knocking Liverpool right off their fucking perch”, Liverpool chief executive Peter Moore says now: “We are back on our perch.” As The Anfield Wrap’s Gareth says: “In a dream scenario, a period of dominance follows. Not so long ago that dream was just that. Now, it’s a reality that is much easier to imagine.”

Four more games. Eyes on the prize. For me, at last, 30 years in the making, eyes on the prize.

Whereas the 2019 Kentucky Derby this week was overshadowed not only by questions of equine welfare but also by the biggest scandal in the history of the race (the winner was disqualified for impeding another horse), Edgar Wallace in 1932 invented a scandal of the opposite nature that became an instant classic of the London stage and continued to entertain repertory audiences for decades - all without setting even so much as a horse's hoof on an actual piece of turf. Despite the distinctly out-of-doors subject matter, The Calendar is a drawing-room drama par excellence, thanks to the intricate simplicity of its construction. The durability of the material proved crucial again in 1956, when the play was selected to represent the very era of the well-made play it had inaugurated and which the event in question would - perhaps not entirely to the surprise of anyone involved - bring to a close.

For one night only, artists from every show in town appeared together on the stage of the London Coliseum in aid of a venerable 80-year old institution: theGreen Room Club had, with its benevolent fund, always been at hand to assist members of the theatrical profession in times of need, but now the Club itself required an urgent injection of cash. Anall-star midnight matinee was devised, to reflect the cream of entertainment enjoyed by London audiences throughout the Club's existence. Arrangements were made for the Green Room Cavalcade to take place onMonday, 5 March 1956, at 11.30pm, roughly half an hour after that night's final curtains would fall on regular performances. London Transport laid on extra services to accommodate the theatre-going crowds, who instead of rushing home to get a good night's sleep would be pouring into St Martin's Lane for three more hours of dramatic distractions.

A delectable distraction for those in the auditorium, the event demanded a feat of concentration from those on the other side of the proscenium arch who for their partnot only had to make sure they would attend the charity performance but to make it happen in the first place. They too had to make their way from the first venue of the evening to the Coliseum but in the same time it took the audience to find their seats they would have had to accomplish not only a change of scenery but of costume, complexion and character as well. From the announcement of the Cavalcade on 12 January 1956, under the auspices of Lord and Lady Olivier, to curtains up on the night a mere six weeks had to suffice for procurement and preparation, recruitment and rehearsals - which of course coincided with the normal routines of current, commercial West End productions.

Ring For Catty went into rehearsal on 16 January and opened at the Lyric Theatre in Shaftesbury Avenue on 14 February. Advertised as a comedy, it might surprise an unsuspecting audience by chronicling the mostly declining health of patients on a tuberculosis ward, not all of whom will still be alive at the end of the show. Leonard White is the young bank clerk whose bed will be reassigned before the night is out, and his early departure on 5 March may have helped casually affluent Garry Anson arrive in time for his hearing before the Stewards of the Jockey Club. It is a serious allegation that has brought matters to a head for the distinguished race horse owner who on a whimsical impulse decides to pull his horse.

He then makes his second impulsive mistake in writing a note to inform his childhood friend Lady Wenda Panniford about the plan. Regret is almost instantaneous, and a second, explanatory note goes out to Darling Wenda. For Garry this resolves the issue. By an extremely fortuitous stroke of luck his horse even wins the race, but why does Wenda claim she never received the second note? Garry feels unable to fathom the heart of a woman, but as the Stewards explain in their devastating verdict: in the interest of the turf there is only one decision to be taken.The Calendar of the title refers to the Ascot Racing Calendar in which Garry Anson's shame will be published - unless the Stewards can be convinced that it is the blameless gentleman, and not the duplicitous lady, who must be believed. The 15-minute court room scene would have been chosen for its self-contained dramatic qualities (any missing plot details would have been supplied by Eric Portman), minimal stagecraft requirements, and the lightest possible load to be born by the aspiring new lead - while he is still facing three hostile judges and one mercenary femme fatale. 

The accusers and prosecutors in this case would have been lending their seasoned professional support to the novice protagonist, a novice at any rate in West End terms but one who had risen through the ranks of repertory theatre to emerge at what we know now was a point of transition in the history of post-war British theatre: whenthe entire cast of the Green Room Cavalcade went on stage for the last number, it was a grand finale in more ways than one,and the move from the drawing room to the kitchen sink was already underway. The Green Room Club did benefit, briefly, from the £4,000 of box office takings and struggled on for another 48 years. Anne Crawford tragically died of leukaemia in October of 1956. The new leading man-to-be, poised to join the establishment on the eve of a theatrical revolution, would place his bets with both but in the end would run for neither.
