@Martina Hi, I thought you were trying to dine with Lulu the British singer. I was wondering why they wouldn’t let her in? Then I saw the comments….

@Carra23 So now we have to go and get a Paisley..

[CJ @flatwetandwindy]

@CACoates96 Really hope so. It could be the last time for another thirty years or so.. So I’m pretty desperate for it to happen this year. I’m worried about the multiple fronts, we need to prioritise with the league over everything. Play the kids in all other competitions.

@BBCMOTD Bob Paisley. No contest.

[CJ @flatwetandwindy]

The Dutch actually don’t have a proper word for being excited in a positive manner. I presume because they just do not want to let go. Puritan roots?

It’s election time again in the Netherlands. Usually means a gazillion parties in a coalition government who spend months disagreeing on everything before falling apart over some minor scandal..

Fantastic result for the Dutch in the cricket World Cup by beating South Africa! Bet it doesn’t make the news here however!

@LFCRELATED__ Why do we have to buy big money established stars to be successful? Liverpool historically have a good pedigree of buying players with potential from the lower leagues at lower cost and mould them into Liverpool players playing the Liverpool way. We should do this more.
