Huge thanks to @bifana_bifana for previewing Sunday's game and speaking so honestly to @thisisanfield from a Man City perspective:

@eddiegibbs Hard agree, you’ve put into words what I struggled to express, just to myself. As a LFC fan, I found him hysterical to watch on TUS & a tad more balanced on TF. I respect his work ethic, not so much his opinions😅 I suspect the light relief he supplied will disappear now
@LFCTransferRoom@greggevans40 My goodness - some of the pics I’ve seen of him training recently - the boy looks more in shape than many of our non-injured players 😳😅
This visit broke my heart.
I visited an elderly man with a free food parcel he had requested. When I arrived, he asked, “Can you talk to me for five minutes, or do you have to go?”
I told him I could stay.
He spoke about his life, grieving his late wife and losing his only child to addiction. I stayed for an hour and listened.
As I left, he said, “Thank you for listening. It’s been a long time since anyone listened to me, Tasha.” I’m sure he meant me. Either way, he went back into his home smiling.
With his permission, I’ve passed his details to a befriending service.
I learnt a long time ago that a food bank is about more than food.
It’s about connection, being heard and being seen.
I hope I made his day.
I know he made mine. #foodbank
@AliBengali15@HenryJackson87 Thank you - that’s lovely ☺️
I’m old enough to remember 1990, and that HURT. Now, though, with JK in charge of Germany, I believe you, he’s an outstanding human 😃
@shemaiahng@JennMGreenberg Agreed. Would add we have to keep comms channels open. Not easy when they’re monosyllabic & parents are NOT cool. I chose football, his passion, & learned weekly facts & figures to engage. He humoured me, but over time kept us talking & is now a genuine shared interest.
An Amazon plane owned by one billionaire crashes into Tesla robotaxis owned by another billionaire while transportation safety regulations are being hollowed out by billionaires.
Peak late-stage capitalism.
