First, I confess that I do not follow the football. Second, sad for England to lose after trying so hard. Third, could we now have telly news shows about something other than football?
Watched BBC Breakfast and BBC News for an hour yesterday. Nothing other than football except a two-minute headlines. They even dropped the regular weather slot (only reason I watch the stuff anyway.) Watched the same shows this morning. Same result. Nothing but football. At least they actually did the weather. But, come on, meeja. There is something other than football going on: Haiti is falling apart after the premier was assassinated, the UK’s covid infections will hit another all-time-high in a few weeks and someone finally made it into space in a private rocket space-plane. Some of these things are, arguably, a wee bit more important/interesting than a lost football match.
