It's becoming harder and harder to get excited about this World Cup.
- Iraq's Aymen Hussein detained for 7 hours in questioning while the country's photographer was sent home
-Uzbekistan treated 'as criminals,
- The excellent Somali referee denied entry
It's crazy to me that sport, once all about unity, has been about exclusion this time.
13 years ago today, THE most astonishing finish to an EFL Championship playoff match.
🐬 90+5' - Anthony Knockaert dives to win a penalty
🧤 90+7' - Almunia saves Knockaert's penalty
⚽️ 90+8' - Troy Deeney scores to send Watford to Playoff final
Hi guys @clearlake@Dannythefink - at the moment it doesn’t look, and I quote: “F***ing obvious that we’re building the best team in the world.” It actually looks a bit like we’re a club run by charlatans and idiots. Just saying.
PSG will have five days off between the two legs of their Champions League tie against Chelsea after their request to postpone their Ligue 1 match against Nantes was granted by the LFP [Ligue de Football Professionnel] board of directors 🆚❌
🇧🇷 Meanwhile in Brazil, someone has trained their dog to support Fluminense just as passionately as any human would support them. 🤯🐶
How is this even possible? 🤣
Welcome to Chelsea FC, Liam Rosenior!
As I'll always do, I'll get behind any Chelsea manager until they give me reason not to. Club over anything else. Chelsea FC comes first and is way more than staff, owners, players - who all come and go. All the very best of luck, Liam.
Chelsea fans are planning a protest against co-owner Behdad Eghbali and the wider club hierarchy, arguing they have “failed to meet the standards” required.
The protest proposals come one day after the departure of head coach Enzo Maresca.
The protest has been planned by a fan group titled ‘Not a Project CFC’ and is scheduled to take place before the Premier League fixture against Brentford at Stamford Bridge on January 17.

Ipswich Town have left a hat and a wreath of flowers on the seat of season ticket holder Andrew Hammond, who sadly passed away this week after taking his own life.
If you are struggling, do not be ashamed to reach out, Friends, family, a work colleague or even a neighbour. It’s okay to not be okay and people are always willing to help.
Fair play to Ipswich, rest in peace Andrew 💙
