The Beautiful Game

[Matt Ladson @mattladson]

Not very often that a story about Liverpool's history comes out that I had no idea of.

This is a proper untold story, courtesy of @JohnKeithUK and his new fact-fiction novel on Shankly.

Wirtz decision has really annoyed FC Hollywood.

[Transfer News Live @DeadlineDayLive]

🇩🇪🗣️ Bayern Munich board member Karl-Heinz Rummenigge:

"We cannot go on with constantly rising wages and transfer costs. This is not a serious way of working. In England, clubs are now owned by billionaires or even states, such as Saudi Arabia and Qatar. That forces you to compete with them even in the Champions League.

We need to reduce the limit from 70% to 60%, or even better, to 55% of revenues for salaries and transfers. We need a shared solution, we cannot continue with the 'always more' mentality.

Clubs, players and agents must sit down together to seriously discuss the future."

[The Tactical Times @Tactical_Times]

It wasn’t a standout performance by his standards, but even his quieter games are full of quality that goes unnoticed by people only looking for highlights. A proper instrumental player.

It feels pretentious but I think Wirtz is a player for lovers of football.

If you happen to be in the Emerald Isle on October 12th , I would love to see you at @chaptersbooks for the launch of Game Changer, my life story through the sneaker wars, the console wars, and an interesting detour with the greatest football club in the world.

@ThatLFCTrio @JamesPearceLFC Nothing short of a miracle. Still can't believe it.

@JamesPearceLFC @TonyEvans92a @adjones_journo @SebSB Fair play, Seb. Played it cool.

Today marks the 36th anniversary of the Hillsborough disaster. As always, our thoughts are with all those affected and the 97 fans who will never be forgotten.

You’ll Never Walk Alone.

In 2022, Liverpool endured chaos and fear at the Paris Champions League final.

Tonight, #LFC return to the city - but many fans chose not to attend.

For them, wounds left by that day three years ago are yet to heal.

Questions & Opinions

Is this definitely what happened?
No, this is my working assumption. I welcome all corrections and rebuttals. The Govt. want this to just go away and refuse to provide information on this. Leaving us all in the dark.

Why did the bike shed cost so much?
Arrogance, mismanagement and corruption.

Why would Micahel Stone go to such efforts to help Paschal win an election?
"Whats in it for him?" This question was never examined when the scandal broke last year.

Should Paschal Donohue Resign?
Yes.

Could this bring down the Govt?
Yes. The problem is our media have no interest in real investigative journalism anymore. Which is really. Our opposition parties need to do better.

Why am I doing this?
I am 34. I work very hard. I generate a lot of tax but I am unable to buy a home. My business should be thriving but instead is on the brink. Hell hath no fury...

What do I want?
Better politicians.

It's hard to believe that 111 years have passed since he was born. This is how I remember him; hammering away (literally) on his old typewriter, replying to as many suppporters as he could. I'm sure he made a lot of them very happy. Happy birthday, grandy. x

My daughter Isobelle has written this poem in tribute to the young victims of the Southport tragedy and their families.

@NickyAllt Only a handful of people have statues of themselves on our main street in Dublin city. Jim is one of them. His life story is definitely worth a film.

A Fine Gael councillor has been letting one of his seven investment properties on Airbnb despite a failed planning application to use it as short-term accommodation – which would “exacerbate the existing shortage in supply” of housing, said a planner
