I guess that's why they've won the league so often during that span. I haven't looked back, but if memory serves, Liverpool's record over that period has been less than sterling. Hopefully they can have a quick start to relieve some of the pressure.
It'd be interesting to see a list of Champions by year and whether they won their first game or not.
*hint hint*
Liverpool's record was pretty good back in the 70's and early 80's, Chris B. Not sure how good their opening fixtures were though...
Adam - just for you, I'll try and find that out! You can say what you like about me, but I rarely shirk a challenge...
