Mediawatch has checked, double-checked and checked again: It turns out it is 2015 after all.
The cause of our confusion? This brand-new feature on the BBC website: 'Gerrard v Lampard: Who was better?'
Over 2200 words later, Phil McNulty, BBC Chief Football Writer and Liverpool Echo alumnus, concludes: 'But if a choice has to be made it would be Gerrard.'
So the same answer as in 2002, 2007, 2010 and all the other sodding years in between.
Thanks. For. That.
Greed To Know Basis
Who do you call when you want a cantankerous sod to put a young whippersnapper in his place? Steven Howard, of course, the 'man at the heart of The Sun' who is always ready to let rip about a young player who is 'greedy, manipulating and determined to get his own way'. Mediawatch prefers the word 'ambitious', but we digress.
A few things, Steven...
* This idea that Liverpool could replicate the situation with Luis Suarez, and then 'laugh all the way to the bank' next summer? You seem to be forgetting the tiny point that Suarez signed a massive new contract worth £200,000 a week just months before he left for Barcelona. That's why Liverpool could 'laugh all the way to the bank'. If Sterling does not sign a new deal, he simply depreciates in value. Nobody will be laughing all the way to anywhere.
* You say his performances have been a 'massive disappointment' and 'he has scored just 11 goals in 52 Liverpool appearances this campaign'. That still makes him Liverpool's top scorer from open play; he is just 20. Do you think that might possibly be one of the reasons he wants to leave?
* You say he has 'gone on the missing list' and 'fans always know the real story', which is why he was booed when he collected his Young Player of the Year award. So why the hell did they vote for him in the first place after such a 'massive disappointment' of a season? Why didn't they vote for Emre Can or Lazar Markovic or Jordon Ibe instead? It's almost like you/they decided he is sh*t just because he has had the gall to want more...
* You really want to to do the "too tired" to play thing again? Of course you do. After all, that was only seven sodding months ago.
Bigger Is Better
'Nobody is bigger than a club who have won five European Cups and 18 league titles,' says Robbie Savage in the Daily Mirror.
(Except Luis Suarez. He was loads bigger).
Lawro, Lawro Bull
'Aston Villa's 6-1 defeat at Southampton was one of several strange results last weekend. I'm not surprised I didn't get many predictions right with scores like that,' says Mark Lawrenson in an attempt at mitigation for getting just one result (Manchester City beating Swansea) right across ten Premier League games last weekend.
Obviously the same problem did not befall This Is England actor Thomas Turgoose, who picked five correct results, with one perfect score.
Here Comes The Bride
Headline in The Sun: 'England call-up forces Austin to scrap stag do.'
Opening paragraph in The Sun: 'CHARLIE AUSTIN landed his first England call-up - but has been forced to cancel his honeymoon.'
In Mediawatch's experience, they are rather different.
