Comments:

Final league position 2013-14: 2nd This result meant that Liverpool became the first team since Tottenham Hotspur in 1962-63 to score more than 100 goals and concede more than 50 in the same season. The example of Spurs in 1962-63 is also the last occasion a team had scored 100 goals in a top division season without being crowned as champions. This was also the first time that Liverpool had scored more than 100 goals in a season since 1895-96 when they scored 106 goals in lifting the Second Division title.

Comments:

Final league position 2013-14: 10th Paul Dummett was sent-off after 87 minutes for serious foul play. However, his subsequent claim for wrongful dismissal was upheld and the red card withdrawn.
