@rmeado66 Not football fans - they haven’t a clue

And people say mens football is faster?! 💤

@shotputtlinco that was awesome! Well done. 4th in the worlds is one heck of an achievement. 👏🏻

@anfieldforge Ditto. Was always entertained but now I’m ‘watching’ but just cos it’s Liverpool as opposed to enjoying it. TBH though it is the same with other games. I was always locked in- especially when a big game or super Sunday (and LFC not involved) but now it’s just background noise

Something I’ve noticed about myself this season: I’m constantly on my phone while Liverpool are playing. Not the occasional glance either, proper second screen behaviour. Match on the tv, phone in hand, scrolling while the game carries on in the background. And every week I end up asking myself the same question: what’s going on here? Have I suddenly developed ADHD? Has years of short form content and endless scrolling completely destroyed my attention span, or more worryingly, am I starting to fall out of love with football? Because it definitely didn’t used to be like this. I could sit through a dull 0–0 years ago and still be completely locked in. Every phase of play felt like it mattered, every attack carried a bit of tension, and even when nothing was happening it still felt like something might happen. Now I sit down with every intention of properly watching the match. Phone down next to me. Five minutes later I’m somehow halfway through a video about someone restoring a lawnmower from the 1980s. I look back up and realise I’ve missed several minutes of football, yet the game seems to be exactly where it was before. Centre back to full back. Back inside. Across the back line. Back to the goalkeeper. Switch sides. Reset. By the time we finally reach the edge of the box my attention has already drifted somewhere else. And that’s when the other thought creeps in. Maybe it’s not my brain. Maybe it’s not TikTok or shrinking attention spans. Maybe I still love football exactly the same as I always have. Maybe Liverpool are just a bit boring to watch this season. Everything feels very controlled, very safe, very calculated. Lots of possession, lots of recycling the ball, lots of patient build up but not always much urgency or unpredictability. It can feel like we’re carefully managing a game rather than actually grabbing hold of it.

@CollinRugg It was their reaction that should have been punished also as against the spirit/values of the Olympics. Tarnished their win. Have no respect for them. And the comments after 😳 Are Canadians proud of that?!

NEW: Canada men’s curling wins gold after being accused of cheating their way through the Winter Olympics. The team is now gloating, telling people who accuse them of cheating to get a picture of them hugging each other “burned into your brain.” “For anyone who called us cheaters, for anyone who said negative things about Marc Kennedy, about us, about Canada, about our families,” said Brad Jacobs. “I hope that the image of us standing on top of the podium, embracing one another, smiling ear to ear with our gold medals is burned into your brain forever.” In response to the cheating accusations, the team accused others of setting up cameras to catch them in the act.
