Being a passive Reds fan (in other words I’m not super into football but being from Liverpool and, like, so not an Evertonian … ya) I’ve been directly exposed to the thick of Scouse beefing over footie and the optimism vs. pessimism over the whole thing (you try and stay hopeful either way, and the Reds are actually very good in fairness).
The funny thing is I’m actually distant cousins with quite a few footballers (including one who used to play for Everton) but I ain’t never rocked with footie like that. I only really like athletics, wrestling and boxing as far as sports go but even then not enough for cynicism vs. optimism to be an element in the game from my side. Just enough to make a John Bradshaw-Layfield remark.

That's more than fair.
Tbh my love of Football in general is quite diminished nowadays, I only really care about Blues really.
Like England could lose the Euros for all I care, and I'm being serious about that, I just don't really care about the team tbh.
And yeah Liverpool are a very good team, I think that Klopp will be a big loss to them though, but hopefully I'm wrong about that.
And one of your Cousins played for Everton? He must've been a decent player then.
