Liverpool sack Arne Slot — but should Everton stick with Moyes?
“It’s caught everybody off guard,” says Carragher
Dear readers – what comes up, must come down. And as of this morning, last week’s soaring temperatures have dwindled to a rather bleak mix of cloud and rain for the foreseeable. Here in Post HQ, we’re up in arms. With Abi away last week, Laurence had little to no time to soak up the rays, instead trapped inside our city centre office banging his head against his keyboard. Now she’s back, he can instead use his lunchbreak to sit on the soggy steps of Liverpool ONE and enjoy a weather-unfitting ice lolly.
Over the weekend, Laurence and Jack paid a visit to Crabbish, the apparently “authentic” Louisiana boil on Duke Street — only to be confronted with gastronomic horrors beyond their comprehension. Laurence is currently undergoing psychoanalysis, while Jack has not resurfaced after running off into the night cackling maniacally. Judging by the comments, some of you seem to have greatly enjoyed their suffering:
“This article was hilarious. I read the whole thing out loud to my partner and we laughed our heads off. Superb stuff.” — Nicola Deegan on Instagram
“I could not stop laughing at this piece and your faces until the last pic.” — Carolyn Thornton
“Brilliant and hilarious journalism!” — John Nevill
“Oh my word, I laughed all the way through this, boss.” — Lydia
Laurence Thompson
On with today’s edition, which includes a wonderful photo of the day, an update on Liverpool Pride, our cultural picks for the week, and a look at the contrasting destinies of Everton and Liverpool FC’s head coaches.
Breathtaking opera in the Peak District
Every year, Buxton International Festival puts on some of the very best opera in Britain. In 2026, their two lead operas, La traviata and The Merry Widow are set to be sell-outs with tickets being snapped up fast.
Take a trip to 19th-century Paris with Giuseppe Verdi’s La traviata for a fresh take on the classic tale of forbidden love, sacrifice and social prejudice. Or let Franz Lehár’s The Merry Widow transport you to 1950s Manhattan, for a deliciously rich comedy of bankruptcy, infidelity, and social climbing.
Whether you’re a long-time opera lover or looking to try something new this summer, escape the city and head to Buxton for an evening at the opera – grab your tickets below. With over 160 stellar events, there’s a show for everyone.
