Some folks want blood but i'm a hard NO on sacking the coach.
A caretaker doesnt change the pressure on the players, give them new found confidence or accelerate the process for those still grieving.
All you do is sack a league winning coach who had to manage one of his players dying #lfc

I have been doing entirely too much earnest posting about deep things recently, I need to do a proper thread about hippo testicles or something just to keep myself sane.
Oh by the way hippos have migratory testicles.

Key line on what Robertson has just said there about Jota is about him being "in a bad way" earlier today in his hotel room.
How often have they been in a bad way and just tried to crack on? We don't know and never will.
They've been poor at football at times but don't criticise their character.

🇮🇪 LONG STORY SHORT ON IRELAND’S WORLD CUP PLAYOFFS:
We will have home advantage for our semi-final as long as:
• Bosnia don’t beat Austria on Tuesday
• Wales don’t beat North Macedonia on Tuesday
The seeding pots are based on FIFA’s world rankings and, as things currently stand, Ireland are pot 2.

WE DID IT IT'S FUCKING BACK TO THE FUTURE!!!
Early kick off means watching the match with my son at home.
If Ireland do well, it'll be like showing him an extremely feel good family film, à la Paddington 2. If we do bad it'll be like exposing him to The Exorcist at the tender age of 6.

Fintan O’Toole: Simon Harris is deliberately spreading disinformation on immigration
For Fine Gael, the small number awaiting deportation is proof inward migration has become ‘too high’

Simon Harris is a coward and a bully who would rather scapegoat innocent communities of vulnerable people rather than face up to the failures of either his government or himself as a leader, a Cabinet minister and a human being. Couldn't think less of him and have no problem saying it.

The reason I'm concerned about Maria Steen being on the ballot isn't that she will win (she won't).
My worry is that if she is nominated, it will mean a month of national airtime for a hate campaign against vulnerable groups, carried by a media too scared of being sued to call it what it is

Dismayed by the "I loathe Gl**ner but his arrest should scare us all" takes. The bar for arrest over a social media post *should be extremely high*, but a guy who's harassed trans people 19 hours a day for 8 years, telling his 600k fans to attack any trans women they see, clears that bar v easily?
