George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 06/06/2025#Spurs have sacked Ange, and it's hard to argue against. Since Dec 2024, 26 games in the #PL: W5 D4 L17, 19pts. That translates to about 28pts in 38 games, with the same PPG. The parallels with Man Utd last summer are simply too stark. 000 0
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 02/06/2025This radio is so funny to me, knowing that #Verstappen gets angry on the radio a lot. He just sounds so confused and done. #F1 youtu.be/c6VirT6tXXwyoutu.beMax Verstappen 📻 "Why? Why we are on Hard?" Team Radio #SpanishGP 2024YouTube video by Racing Corner F1 000 0
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 31/05/2025Inter have offered nothing in this #ChampionsLeague final. Feeling better that Liverpool lost to such deserving champions. #UCL 000 0
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 28/05/2025Questions, if I may, to @playedinbritain.bsky.social: Do any copies of William McGregor's 1888 "I beg to tender" letter survive? What are our sources for this letter? Where did Tityrus write about it? 100 1
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 25/05/2025Is this the death of the #MonacoGP? An utter fiasco. #F1 000 0
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 23/05/2025My Italian neighbours are making sure everyone are aware of this year's #SerieA winners... I haven't been following, but #Napoli have bounced back quick under Conte! 000 0
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 22/05/2025After sobering up, #Spurs still needs to do some thinking. It's so similar to Man United's 2024 summer. And look how that turned out. 000 0
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 21/05/2025With no #EuropaLeague to sweeten things up, Man United can only stare at a 16th/17th league finish. (Villa, 8 wins in the last 9 PL games, desperate to win at Old Trafford for CL qualification...) There is literally nothing worse but relegation. Must be humbling. Also... Ange's really done it. 000 0
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 27/04/2025Sealing the #PL title after thumping Spurs 5-1... #Liverpool have done it the stylish way. I couldn't resist looking down the table and spotting Man United staring at a bottom half finish... Back on our perch. #LFC 030 3
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 27/03/2025I was part of the camp that thought #Tsunoda was cheated out of the #RedBull seat. Happy that he now has a chance to show his skills in a faster car, and hoping that he will prove his doubters wrong (and in particular, myself correct)! #F1 120 2
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 23/03/2025Points-wise, a near perfect #ChineseGP for Piastri: 32/33 scored. Comfortable race: hard work was done in qualifying and in the first lap. It seems that #F1 DotD will be awarded on a delayed basis: Antonelli deserved it last week and for some reason got it this time. Bearman in Japan then? 010 1
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 22/03/2025The #ChineseGP is turning out to be a real opportunity for Piastri to make a statement. But what's happening with Lawson? How cursed really is this second Red Bull seat? 000 0
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 16/03/2025Painful, though deserved, defeat in the League Cup final. #Liverpool are now out of all cup competitions, with nothing to show for it. Hopefully we end the PL campaign strongly. #LFC 040 4
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 16/03/2025#Rangers haven't won at Celtic Park since October 2020, during their last title-winning season. This hard-fought 3-2 win will mean a lot to them. They're surely too far behind this season though (13 points, 8 games to go) 000 0
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 16/03/2025Driver of the Day voting for #AusGP: Norris 20.7% Piastri 17.2% Albon 15.9% Tsunoda 11.3% Hamilton 8.3% How has Kimi #Antonelli not made this list? Finished 4th when almost every other rookie spun out into oblivion, and completed plenty of great overtakes. He was impressive today. 2100 10
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 16/03/2025The rain certainly did its thing in the #AusGP, but Piastri has no one but himself to blame. This was an important win for Norris: the foundation for his season. As for #McLaren as a team: their two drivers were 15 seconds ahead of Verstappen before the Alonso safety car. 120 2
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 15/03/2025Happy to see #McLaren secure the front row lockout for the Australian GP. With both drivers having had no banker lap to rely on in Q3, they showed their confidence in the car. Exciting. Let's see what the rain has to say tomorrow... 000 0
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 12/03/2025xG after two legs: #LFC 1.91, #PSG 4.38 (per BBC) #Liverpool simply lost to the better team. Still, a tough pill to swallow. Hopefully the players will put this behind them quickly! 010 1
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 11/03/2025Painful to see #Liverpool exit UCL, especially after a stellar first phase. Looking forward to the Carabao Cup final on Sunday. #LFC 010 1
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 10/03/2025Arsenal have finally reached 55 points in the PL. According to this now-infamous post, they are 5 games late... #Liverpool need just 16 points from their last 9 to win the PL. 6 games are at home, including one against Arsenal. #LFC 020 2
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 08/03/2025Two pens scored by #Salah moves him joint-5th with Agüero in all-time PL scorers list, with 184 goals. He's now on 27+17 G+A this season. The PL record is 47 (Cole 93-94, Shearer 94-95). 000 0
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 08/03/2025As Bayern surrendered a two-goal lead to lose at home against lowly Bochum, so too did Leverkusen lose at home: 0-2 against Bremen. Bayern are 8 points clear of Leverkusen, 9 games to go. You'd have to be nuts to bet against Harry Kane winning his first trophy. #Bundesliga 010 1
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 05/03/2025BBC on #PSG v #LFC: Shots 27-2 On target 10-1 xG 1.82-0.27 Result 0-1 86' Elliott comes on, 87' he scores with his first touch. 9 saves by Alisson. Crazy match, and a crucial advantage brought back to Anfield. 040 4
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 26/02/2025With ten games to go, #Liverpool need at most 21 points to seal the PL title. Six of these games are at Anfield, and one is at the King Power. On the other hand, #Arsenal still need to visit Old Trafford and Anfield. It's over. #LFC 000 0
George Wood @gwood1729.bsky.social · 26/02/2025#Liverpool have played 16 times in the first 8 weeks of 2025. In that time: - increased PL lead from 6 to 13 pts, - confirmed top spot in the UCL league phase, - booked Carabao Cup final spot. Despite the FA Cup blip, still phenomenal. #LFC 010 1
