2005 Champions League final. Left the pub at half time distraught. On the way home Liverpool scored their first wandered around and found a take away with a TV which I could see from outside. Stood outside the take away for the next hour in disbelief.

In memory of Jan - RIP my friend - we want everyone to see how talented you were and celebrate your amazing ability.

If you've never heard these, you'll learn something but also you'll marvel at his talent.

Thanks for everything Fydsy ❀️

Salah and Ramadan

If he can't fuel and hydrate the same, he will not be the same player.

I dont blame Salah for this; I respect him for following his beliefs. Maybe consider that he is fasting before you start thinking he has lost it.

Labour’s had a stellar week.

While Trump and Musk embarrassed themselves more than we thought possible, there was plenty of good news for progressives.

It’s the anniversary of this ruthless Ian Rush hat-trick on a frozen Friday night at Villa Park in 1984.

Elite finisher.

Hugh McIlvanney said Denis Law was the only British footballer who would have got into Brazil's divine 1970 team.

His finishing was razor sharp, cheeky, as refined as art.

Aberdeen's greatest.

And just a lovely man who wore his greatness lightly, with a twinkle in his eye.

The monte carlo says 2-1 #LFC the most likely result with a home win 66% of the time. Pretty incredible considering 10v11 for 80 minutes. And this is before you even factor in some pretty scandalous refeering decisions

Arsenal have created an open play expected goal in one of their last eight Premier League matches. Across the season as a whole it's three of 15.

They rank 13th in the Premier League for open play xG.
