They’re €500m in debt. There’s Premier League clubs that owe, or have owed around a billion (if you believe your papers) and if anything they only seem keen to enforce rules that keep the chasing pack from overtaking them. 🫡
🚨⚠️ Official: Olympique Lyonnais have been handed a provisional Ligue 2 relegation. It also includes a transfer BAN due to their financial situation.

Craig Bellamy still can't believe he's Wales manager as he reflects on his first 5 games in charge 😱⚽ He says he wants Wales to be "a really good footballing nation." #BBCFootball

🧢 Above all, for NUFC, it sends a message to would-be signings. Three uncapped players arrived on Tyneside and, within 16 months, they were all England internationals.
🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Newcastle have THREE starters in the England XI here at Wembley... Lewis Hall, Tino Livramento (on debut) & Anthony Gordon all face Ireland #nufc

Who better to weigh in on Rachel Reeves’s "spiteful" budget, his views splashed across the Times front page, than vacuum cleaner maker James Dyson? The Brexit supporter turned tax exile, warns the 20% "Family Death Tax" will kill off family businesses—though he omits mention of his vast estate and Singapore-based HQ.

Good news alert
NEW: NHS hospital productivity has started to rebound. Hospital activity across a range of measures has increased substantially this year. For some measures, 2024 is the first year with activity levels higher than 2019. THREAD on our new briefing: ifs.org.uk/articles/nhs-hosp… [1/4]

🔴TORY CORRUPTION Do you agree #police should investigate where £37 billion pounds of taxpayers' money went❓ @RishiSunak - £5 BILLION of Covid-19 bailouts handed to firms based in tax havens. Where is our money❓ @MirrorPolitics

Left: CEO of NHS England Amanda Pritchard explains how in summer 2020 they knew there would be pressures on the NHS to cope with another wave, that senior Conservative politicians heard first hand accounts, and that it was 'terrifying' #CovidInquiry Right: Despite this there was a huge party breaking every covid rule at CCHQ, with dancing, singing, food. It was hosted by Shaun Bailey who instead of being prosecuted is now sitting in the House of Lords The Met police resisted investigating this party at CCHQ. Eventually they investigated. And despite the investigation and clear breaches of every covid rule, the Met police took no action which shows clear corruption at the Met police - shame on them This was also the same time that Allegra Stratton was filmed on camera joking about parties in Downing Street. Question has to be asked why she was the only one fired/who quit from this, despite there being many others in the room she was being filmed in At one of the most difficult times at the start of the pandemic both Downing Street and CCHQ repeatedly breached the rules they imposed on the rest of us, despite knowing how bad things were under the strain of covid in the NHS - shame on Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak and everyone else in the Conservative party that did this

The Sun can say what it likes about Lineker. But Lineker never ran an entirely fictitious front-page story accusing Liverpool fans of picking the pockets of corpses.

The Premier League is corrupt, the PGMOL are corrupt and the referees are corrupt and today has shown clear evidence of David Coote exposed of all this. Best league in the world with the most corrupt organisation officiating.

I remember where I was when I watched the final episode of Blackadder Goes Forth and how I sat stunned at the end. One of the best pieces of tragicomic writing ever, in any form; worth another look today of all days.

Kudos to @rorystewartuk for coming on and doing this.
"I was completely wrong...obviously, I'm guilty of massive wishful thinking." Rory Stewart outlines how he got his prediction of a Harris win so wrong after Donald Trump swept to victory across government. #TimesRadio | @RoryStewartUK | @HugoRifkind

Man of the people my arse!
Lee Anderson, doing the whole ‘Do you know who I am?!’ performance, and swearing at a security guard for just trying to do his job - keeping people like Lee Anderson safe. What a cunt.

Surely protecting the FA Cup for ALL its members has to be the priority for the FA. If so, they have abrogated their responsibility - shameful!
'The lifelines for small clubs cannot be a problem for clubs that play every three days...' 🤔 We saw what scrapping replays meant in practice on Saturday. Clubs like Guiseley missing out on £35k. What a bone headed solution it was 👇 inews.co.uk/sport/football/j…

#USElection2024 A word from Mr Shakespeare on this momentous day: "Since the affairs of men rest still uncertain Let's reason with the worst that may befall." Whatever, remember the list of UK politicians who have backed Trump.
