If there’s one thing that undermines American football as a legitimate sport, it’s the #SuperBowlHalftimeShow, and the fact that it gets as many headlines as the match. People claim the #SuperBowl is as big as the World Cup but it’s not. The latter doesn’t need a #HalftimeShow.

Just a reminder that I’ve been saying for a long time that #Liverpool need to drop Thiago and start Henderson more. Pity it took an injury to Thiago to prove me right. Thiago’s a fraud. You play your captain. It’s not rocket science. #NEWLIV #lfc #YNWA #premierleague #LiverpoolFC

Quick reminder to those who said #Liverpool would miss Thiago. They’ve played ten league matches in 2023: 5 with Thiago and 5 without. With Thiago: 0W, 1D, 4L Without Thiago: 4W, 1D, 0L. Thiago is a fraud. Should be sold, or if necessary, given away. #LIVMNU #LIVMAN #YNWA #lfc

Ashamed to say I'd forgotten, but funny how the #MOTD pundits will strike over their colleague getting suspended (and to be clear, I disagree with the suspension) but they wouldn't strike for the thousands of slaves who died building stadiums in Qatar? #hypocrites #GaryLineker

Quick reminder to those who criticise Jordan Henderson: Average Liverpool points per league game when a player starts: 1. Henderson - 1.89 pts 2. Nunez - 1.76 3. Firmino - 1.75 4. Van Dijk - 1.73 5. Fabinho - 1.72 When Henderson doesn't start: 1.23 pts. #LiverpoolFC #LFC #FSGOUT

Interestingly, the much maligned Curtis Jones now has the highest average points per game when he starts for Liverpool at 2.00. Henderson is now 2nd with 1.95 and Van Dijk is 3rd on 1.82. Hard to put much stock in Jones' tally at the moment with only 7 starts total, mind. #LFCTOT

#Snooker really is unwatchable. I don’t dispute the skill involved but most of the game is the equivalent of taking the ball over to the corner flag and sticking your arse out, only you don’t have to take the lead first and you do it from the start. #WorldSnookerChampionship2023

Managers are in a no-win situation. They're required to give interviews, where they're asked questions with awkward answers. They can either give their honest opinion and get punished or refuse to answer and bore everyone. Let them say what they like or don't ask. #jurgenklopp

So, #Southampton’s Bazunu experiment ended in failure, and Bazunu finishes the season dropped by a team en route to relegation for the 2nd time in 3 seasons. Can we stop pretending he’s more than an average 2nd division or decent 3rd division keeper now? #SOUFUL #COYBIG #rochdale

If they're saying Van Dijk was offside, that's clearly wrong, since the Villa player intentionally played it. If it was because Diaz was offside when he knocked it back, fair enough, but that wasn't what they were looking at. #LIVAVL #YNWA #PremierLeague

An extra ten minutes? Seriously? Is that to make up for the red card that Mings should have had, and the goal that was ruled out for offside when it clearly wasn't? #LIVAVL #PremierLeague #YNWA

Congratulations to West Ham United. I’m not sure what the point of the “Conference League” is but if you’re in a competition, it’s better to win it than not to. #UCL2023 #UCLfinal #WestHam

Well, after about two weeks of reintroducing myself to FIFA (23), I can confirm that all of the things that have been wrong with it since the Mega Drive are still wrong with it. Why won’t they fix them? #FIFA23
