Chasing internet streams is more accurate...god, I hate this! Yeah, they're illegal but of course you want to see the match when it's on. And while I do try to keep my nose clean and firmly believe in the principle of rights holders getting paid, $9.95 for a stream off the UEFA website is a f****** joke.
I've many things to write about - the whole "charm offensive" (or "offensive charm" as a friend aptly pegged it) being laid on by Messrs. Purslow, Hicks and Gillett very much at the top of the list. While I get as excited as the next person about the match - the paragraph above demonstrating my desperation! - the future of LFC is more important and it's hard not to get wound up, especially as you feel the owners just take the whole affair as a big joke.
How can they be vested in it when they've got none of their g.d. money in it? I've probably put more of my own cash into the club over the last two years than they have.
Anyway, onto happier topics and notching up two wins on the trot in the league and this without Torres being anywhere near his best. (Nora proving too much for him at the moment?) In any event, we're scoring and creating chances, so I'm happy. And would you believe we just scored before halftime in tonight's match - I at least got to see a piece of it before the stream died. Thank heavens for small favors.
Back in a bit.
