Eruption

ok great, my migraine finally erupted..and its gone for now..after a good 3hrs plus of sleep...

concussed right after i got home at about 6plus. My mum didn't feel well today too, so my dad cooked dinner. Yes, my dad! In my 20odd years i don't quite recall my dad ever cooking for us. But tonight he did and the fried rice taste just great! (though Grandpa's one is still the best). Thanks 老豆!

Fowler's one of the greatest soccer players to have graced the Premiership. And this week is Robbie Fowler week in Liverpool. :)


THERE'S ONLY ONE ROBBIE FOWLER by Jimmy Rice 03 July 2007

As Robbie Fowler Week continues on Liverpoolfc.tv, we've chronicled the great man's Anfield career in numbers.

11,000,000 pounds, the amount David O'Leary paid to bring Fowler to Elland Road in 2001


12,541 fans at Anfield to witness his 5 goals during his home debut in 1993 against Fulham in the Coca Cola Cup. Just 3 players had scored 5 in a single game for the Reds previously: Ian Rush, Andy McGuigan and John Evans

1,519 days away from the club between November 2001 and January 2006

712 friends on his unofficial myspace site, compared to 125 for Ian Rush and 20 for Michael Owen

369 appearances for Liverpool

273 seconds to score a hat-trick against George Graham's Arsenal in 94/95

183 goals for Liverpool, putting him 5th in the club's all-time scorers' chart

165 games needed to score 100 goals – one fewer than Ian Rush

129 consecutive games between March 1994 and September 1996

92 appearances for Man City, with 27 goals

36 goals in the 95/96 season, Fowler's highest ever total

33 appearances for Leeds United, with 14 goals

29 League Cup goals for the Reds

26 caps for England, with 7 goals

23 appearances under Graeme Souness, the man who handed him his Reds debut

23 was the first shirt number Fowler wore at Liverpool

20 out of 26 penalties scored. One of those missed came in front of the North Bank at Highbury in 1997 when referee Gerald Ashby awarded a spot kick even though Fowler admitted David Seaman had not brought him down

18 years old when he made his Liverpool debut against Fulham

17 goals scored in the treble season 00/01

14 European goals for the Reds

14 goals against Aston Villa, Fowler's favourite opponents

11 was the shirt number initially worn by Fowler on his return in 2006 until Djibril Cisse left on loan, vacating the number 9 shirt

10 hat-tricks for Liverpool, the same as Michael Owen. Only Gordon Hodgson (17), Ian Rush (16) and Roger Hunt (12) have scored more

9 is God's (Fowler's nickname) number

8, or L8. Fowler is Toxteth's most famous son

6 goals against Everton

5 trophies won with the Reds: 2 League Cups, 1 FA Cup, 1 UEFA Cup and 1 European Super Cup. Fowler was cup tied during the 2006 FA Cup run

5 fingers shown to United fans during the Manchester derby in 2005, a reminder of the number of European Cups won by his former club

3 minutes to score his first goal for England Under-21s on his debut versus San Marino 2 sendings off for Liverpool, both in 1997 against Everton and Bolton

2 PFA Young Player of the Year awards

1 Robbie Fowler
