I agree it may still be having an impact psychologically. But also pre-season was when it was most raw and that is bound to affect the entire season. They’ll come good but may take time as football is relentless these days so no time to grieve or even train. #LFC

Directions from where Chris Kavanagh is from to the Etihad Stadium. We’ve been poor but how can a ref be selected from here for a Man City game?

We’ve been terrible but how can you have a ref from Ashton-under-Lyne, which is very much City territory in Manchester?

I agree with this #LFC team. Come on Liverpool!

VAR got that one right. Great goal.

I always thought Craig Pawson was bad against #LFC but just realised I was wrong

Thank you

I don’t think it’s inappropriate to have some news stories about migration issues but it is very odd indeed for BBC 6 Music, a station essentially targeted at hipster leftie middle-aged people, to be majoring on asylum seeker stories as much as it does.

Indeed. I think it would be safer having non-blinding lights as mandatory than all the beeps and bongs when the car thinks you are going out of a lane when you really aren’t.

My car has LED lights and it would cost me £26 a month for the matrix function to stop blinding people. If that function is available, it should be free as a safety thing in my opinion.

I’m not a rail expert, but if HS2 was a capacity issue, did anybody look at how local trains could be taken off the West Coast Mainline and the costs and impact of putting new smaller lines in for them. Genuinely interested if that was an option that was looked at.

It’s a good point. Retailers are encouraged to give the proceeds from the plastic carrier bag charge to good causes. It would be interesting to find out where the proceeds of paper bag charges go for sure. It might be that it covers the cost of paper bags that are more expensive to produce.

Hi, I’m God.

Jesus and I agree that starving the poor so you can build yourself golden bathrooms and golden ballrooms is evil. Anyone who does that shall burn for eternity. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Thanks,

God

Loving Rooney looking sheepish next to Virgil 😂

Superb #LFC performance. Everybody stepped up but Dom, Conor, Robbo and Ibou really impressed me tonight. Good to see Flo get more involved too.

Amazing how decisions always benefit Real Madrid #LFC

We can’t let our anger get the better of us tonight and have to give everything to support the team.

I want AI to do something for me. I ask it to do it. Then it creates something similar to what I wanted but not enough and I spend ages trying to get exactly what I wanted. Eventually I give up and do it the old way. Is this the future?

I’m very lucky to live in the countryside. But one of the frustrations is when delivery drivers can’t be bothered to come out to you so put in their system that you were not in. DPD today. The only reliable one is Evri and that’s because the regular delivery driver has got to know everyone locally.

Great effort!

Definitely. It is a privilege to go to Anfield and more often we win, but sometimes we lose.

Thank you

Went to the match last night. Took me 3.5 hours to get there because of bad traffic and only just made kick off. We lost and the game was crap. Got drenched in the heavy rain walking back to the car and not home until after midnight. But always great being a #LFC supporter and we’ll be great again

(If I were writing British politics as an episode of The West Wing, I'd have Starmer activate the "Hail Mary" option of saying he'll rejoin the EU in a second term. Re-polarise the electorate along Brexit lines and hope the shifts in demographics/material reality force a winning coalition.)

Pre-season was disrupted due to the tragic loss of Diogo plus we brought in shed loads of players and sold others. It will take a bit longer but we’ll be alright. There just isn’t time on the training ground to sort things right now with games coming thick and fast. But we’ll sort it.

I’m going to Anfield on Wednesday but I hope Slot plays a load of kids and spends the week with the senior players sorting things on the training ground

Loving that the new @stereolabgroop.bsky.social single Fed Up With Your Job is on the BBC 6 Music A playlist. Cheers me up every time I hear it during the daytime when I’m fed up with my job.

ticket waiting list. Perhaps those who have a season ticket should also have the ability to get a certain number of tickets per season to bring someone under 25 with them.

@theanfieldwrap.bsky.social I enjoyed the ticketing discussion podcast this week. This would be controversial, but should there be a 10 year limit on having a season ticket? At the end of that 10 years it can be passed on to someone you know under the age of 25 or it goes to someone on the season

1. Freeze all income tax and national insurance thresholds until the end of the parliament
