One 2026 World Cup wallchart to rule them all.

Take down the Cézanne from your living room wall. Make space for The i Paper’s (almost) A1 wallchart, which will be published in tomorrow’s newspaper.

Don’t miss it. In fact, buy copies for everyone you know.

Thanks!

An Independent Disciplinary Commission has today expelled Southampton from the Sky Bet Championship Play-Offs after the Club admitted to multiple breaches of EFL Regulations related to the unauthorised filming of other Clubs’ training.

In addition, the Club has received a four-point deduction that will be applied to the 2026/27 Championship table.

The effect of today’s order is that Middlesbrough are reinstated into the 2026 Play-Offs and will proceed to the Play-Off Final against Hull City. The final remains scheduled for Saturday 23 May, with the kick-off time to be confirmed.

Blown away to be named Feature Writer of the Year at the British Sports Journalism Awards. I love what I do more than anything else I can imagine doing and this is the best night of my career. A complete honour.

Objectively very funny for a home crowd to boo the name of each home player in the team when it is read out.

Nice to see Freddy Douglas in line for his first 6N cap for Scotland off the bench this week - he shone in the U20s tournament last year.

Football supporters are angrier at matches than I can ever remember. Why does it feel like lots of people don’t like the game they love?

Frank: "Oh, I didn't know that."
