We've got a few things to get to as the Euros approach, but unfortunately there's only one story
anyone seems to be talking about right now, so we'd best get it out of the way right off the
top...

At the time of posting, it's Tuesday for 99.3% of the world's population, which means it's
probably fair to call this Tuesday's news and notes. And for this Tuesday day, night, morning,
evening, or afternoon for 99.3% of the world's population we've got Suarez and Rafa and the media
to get to, so we might as well get right to it.
"We don't think he should ever have been away but we are delighted to get him back," Kenny
Dalglish said when asked about the return of Luis Suarez following Monday's match against
Tottenham. The response from the papers was immediate—and exactly what one would have guessed it
would be.
"Kenny Dalglish has risked infuriating Manchester United ahead of Luis Suarez's appearance at
Old Trafford next weekend," began the always understated Daily Mail.

With the league campaign winding down without much to celebrate and everyone holding their
breath waiting for the offseason craziness to kick off in earnest, it's been a quiet week of news
from a Liverpool point of view. Still, there's always something out there if you look hard enough.
And besides, it's not like you'd rather be doing work right now.
Luis Suarez has been back in action for twenty-five minutes, and he's already lucky he hasn't
been banned two or four or seventeen more times. In related news, the buildup to a match against
Manchester United is always so very much fun...
* In amongst all the excitement over Kenny Dalglish reminding the world that the club
never thought Suarez' ban was an entirely appropriate punishment, following Monday's match there
was an even more ridiculous Suarez b-plot that popped up when Wayne Rooney hopped on Twitter to
suggest that the Liverpool striker should be banned for his mis-timed kick to Scott Parker's
midriff.
