Nighttime television’s Dallas was never a stranger to over-the-top antics to lure in an audience. The show ended up with astounding ratings bonanza in 1980 just by positing the catchphrase “Who shot J.R.?” Six years later though, with sagging ratings, the soap opera tried to turn up the heat again, this time in a shower scene that left viewers wondering if what they saw was the real thing. Season nine of Dallas saw those closest to Bobby Ewing, played by Patrick Duffy, mourning the de...

@Scraggy_74 With the 32nd anniversary of Hillsborough landing the day after Liverpool’s exit from the Champions League, Steven Scragg highlights the need for perspective among fans. Perspective is important to me. When times are good, I am keeping a watchful eye open for the banana skin up ahead. When dark clouds gather, I seek the glimmer of hope, and the totally inappropriate element of humour, in order to lighten the mood. I’ll analyse patterns and recognise familiar tang...

@Scraggy_74 Liverpool unshackled themselves from their Anfield woes, but mind games and intrinsic motivation will be key for the remainder of a season played out in an echo chamber, writes Steven Scragg.
