Problem with Grunge was that most of the bands weren’t even grunge (in fact what is grunge?).

The “Grunge” big 4 bands of Soundgarden & Alice In Chains were never anything other than pure metal bands (Sabbath Metal not that 80’s shite ;-) ) PJ were 70’s rock, and Nirvana were punk.

Been the same. For me this season feels not just transitional, but a season for giving space for reflection on loss. Jota will be the main focus of that, but the club has also dealt with the loss of Matt Beard. Shankly was wrong all those years ago. Football, just isn’t that important.

My new piece for The Guardian. I’ve deeply enjoyed watching and covering this Inter Miami era in Fort Lauderdale, but it’s coming to an end. They’re going to Miami proper next year.

‘Its mediocrity has grown on me’: time almost up for intimate stopgap stadium Messi calls home

The club will finally begin playing in Miami next season. For local fans near Chase Stadium there are mixed emotions

There’s little glimpses of what could be, but today was the first game I’ve been a little worried. Frustrated, yes. Salah seems to have gone full Fabinho (not Sunday roast dinner but quality drop off)

It’ll come together and when we won the league 19/20 the drop off was worse the following season

The golf has been nothing short of spectacular this weekend.

American Ryder Cup fans really are one of the worst. Up there with Arsenal’s.

I’ve not listened to this yet. But I will be later.

Sounded shite on the radio, and I imagine Chris and Dave will be honest about the poor performance. As they always are.

Best LFC pod around.

To be honest, I reckon if I was at Glasto or somehow ended up one of their gigs, I’d really enjoy it. Looks a good time to be fair.

NEW on Always Liverpool | To fully appreciate Jurgen Klopp's legacy, we must recall what the dying embers of Brendan Rodgers' reign were like. Some post-work reading to take you into the weekend. Shares and subs so appreciated.

Remembering September 2015, our final month in the trenches

The Brendan Rodgers debacle was, mercifully, almost over. The transition from Don't Dream, It's Over to Don't Stop Believin' was about to begin.

I don’t think they can’t afford afford to sack him and are waiting for him to quit.

Saturday morning reading on Always Liverpool. On Liverpool’s bumpy but somehow unscathed start to the season. Big one tomorrow!

Strap yourselves in, Liverpool's season will get bumpier

Turbulence is just part of the ride and it can make anyone anxious.

Adore North Wales. Specifically the area including Llanwrst, Betws-y-coed, , Llandogged, Snowdonia.

Boss walk. May have killed the wife. Looking at the slight gradient 🤣

I’ve got to say these live performances of ‘Hail To The Thief’ are ace.

‘Sail To The Moon’ is gorgeous.

@whatismusicpod.bsky.social are you going to be doing an episode on this release?
