Of course it's important

I'm not going to add much to the coverage given, quite rightly, to one of the most magnificent football matches and team performances ever.

Of the Big Clubs, Liverpool has always been the only one I can stomach winning - and when they do it in such a manner as last night, surely everyone (bar Evertonians) can celebrate their achievement, too.

One vignette. I've been watching the coverage of the parade. Outside Anfield, a reporter asked one of the crowd - live on air - why she thought it was important for her to be there (imagine the response in a broad scouse accent to get the full effect):

"Important to be here? Important to be here. I've been waiting twenty f**king years for this. Of course it's important to be here".

Glorious.
