Baron came into the Liverpool side for the first time in March 1925 and scored five times in the nine games he played by the end of that season as Liverpool finished fourth. He was only called on ten times the following season and added just a couple more goals to his total. His twentieth and final League match for Liverpool was at Burnden Park, Bolton on New Year's Day, 1927. Baron joined Southend United in Third Division South in March 1927 and played 64 games and scored 42 goals in his five years' stay at the club.

"It is unbelievable, a dream come true. I can hardly believe that I am back and it's an incredible feeling. After I'd signed I sat in my car outside Anfield and was incredibly emotional. I know the odds: I have come back on a short-term deal and, after that, it is up to me. I hope I will get the chance to play and, if I do, I will take that chance. I don't see this as the end of my career. I am hungry, as hungry as I have ever been, and I want to show that to everyone. I fully intend to prove that I am worth a new contract."
At the beginning of this season, many Liverpool fans would have been hopeful that they were on their way to retaining their title. After an expensive summer transfer window, where Arne Slot was given close to half a billion pounds to spend, it looked as though The Reds had strengthened in more than enough positions to mount a successful defense against Arsenal and Manchester City.
Goalkeepers aren't just another member of a football's squad. They're the last point of contact for the ball; they can often decide the fate of games by their heroics - or villainy - within the sticks.
Right now, Liverpool face a real battle to make their way back into the Champions League next season via their Premier League position. It comes hot on the heels of their title triumph last year, which coincided with Arne Slot’s first campaign in charge of the Reds.
In the heart of Anfield's shadows, Liverpool FC archivists sift through grainy 1970s tapes of Bill Shankly's roars alongside 4K drone footage from the 2025-26 Premier League campaign. A single disputed offside call from last month's derby against Everton risks distorting Mohamed Salah's goal tally. For Liverpool FC, archiving isn't nostalgia; it's a high-stakes battle to digitise 133 years of history amid exploding data volumes. In 2025-26, with the club's open digital archive portal launching and VAR disputes up 15%, accurate data preservation ensures legends like Kenny Dalglish and Steven Gerrard endure untainted.
