🚨 Jürgen Klopp has launched a scathing attack on the cooling breaks being used during this World Cup. 👊
"Football is being held hostage by executives sitting in air-conditioned offices.
These breaks are being presented as a shield for player welfare, a noble weapon against the heat. In reality, they are nothing more than a golden cage built for sponsors.
When I saw players standing around during cooling breaks while television timeouts dictated the rhythm of the match, I couldn't help but ask myself: who is the World Cup really serving?
The supporters? The players? Or the advertisers?
A World Cup match should flow like a river. Instead, we are building dams in the middle of it so commercials can be shown.
It's dangerous for the spirit of the game. Football used to be the main event, but it now risks becoming background music for an advertising show."
He didn't hold back. 👏👏
On this day in 1920, 14 people went to a match at Croke Park.
They never came home.
Dublin GAA remembers them today on the 105th anniversary of Bloody Sunday 💙
@O2 07427 056151 does this number belong to your sales team ?? Ringing me constantly to upgrade my contract which I’m willing to talk over but they keep getting cut off. They even had the cheek to accuse me of hanging up on them which is terrible customer service..
