Dear Lord, please protect this heroic, selfless man - President Trump. He's battling an evil we can't even imagine. Send legions of angels to protect him. Keep him safe from those who seek to destroy him. Amen.

Yay I got retweeted by Aaron Rupar!

Him & Acyn & Ron Filipkowski were the reasons I started this account, to follow them

But now, because retweets are relegated to a separate tab on your feed, no one will know

Because Elon bought a social media site to make us more separated

When Niall Quinn was approaching the end of his Sunderland career in 2002, the club decided to reward him with a testimonial.

He had spent nearly 18 years playing professional football for Arsenal, Manchester City and Sunderland.

The game was arranged against The Republic of Ireland at the Stadium of Light, and with thousands of supporters expected, Quinn stood to make a considerable amount of money.

But he had other plans for it.

Quinn had enjoyed the lifestyle that came with being a professional footballer.

However looking back, there were things he regretted.

“This is my way of fighting my demons.”

“I have abused the privileged life I have had and if this match is anything, it is me paying my debt.”

By then, footballers were earning more money than ever, and Quinn had started questioning the world he had spent almost two decades living in.

“I’m uncomfortable with the way football is going, has gone.”

“If I hadn’t become a professional footballer, if I had stayed in Ireland and got a job, I think I would have been a far better person.”

“I’m convinced of that.”

So instead of keeping the proceeds from his testimonial, Quinn decided to give the lot away.

He wanted to raise £1 million for children’s charities, with £500,000 each going towards hospitals in Sunderland and Dublin, alongside support for disadvantaged children in Calcutta.

And he wanted the other players involved to do something as well.

Rather than buying them expensive watches or gifts, Quinn arranged for each player to receive a letter explaining how they could sponsor a child’s education overseas.

“It might prick a few consciences.”

“And it may just ease mine.”

“I’ve been 18 years in dreamland and now it’s pay-back time.”

When tickets went on sale, the response was extraordinary.

£200,000 was raised in the first two hours before the telephone lines crashed under the demand.

Stewards, ground staff and other workers offered their services for free.

People who could not attend were given the opportunity to buy special non-attendance tickets so they could still contribute.

But reaching £1 million was proving harder than he had hoped.

With just days remaining before the testimonial, the fundraising total was around £750,000.

Quinn was determined to reach his target, even if it meant continuing to raise money after the game.

“If I have to come back next season and do some more then I will.”

On the 14th of May 2002, 35,702 supporters turned up at the Stadium of Light.

Quinn walked out with his two children, to a standing ovation, before playing part of the match for Sunderland and part for Ireland.

Ireland won 3-0, but afterwards Quinn was more interested in what everyone had helped achieve.

He called it his, “night of all nights” and the highlight of his career.

And with the final total still uncertain, he made another promise.

“We’ve got some totting up to do, but anything short of a million and I’ll come back and top it up.”

By November, they had reached £1 million.

£450,000 went to Sunderland Royal Hospital, another £450,000 to Our Lady’s Hospital in Crumlin, with the remaining money supporting street children in Calcutta.

Quinn was later awarded an honorary MBE for his charitable work.

But despite all the praise he received, he never really saw it as giving away a million pounds of his own money.

“In truth I never had the money in my pocket to give away.”

“So it doesn’t feel like I gave away any money.”

🚨🎙️Roy Keane on Manchester United’s first-half performance against Como:

🗣️"I’m sick to death of saying the exact same things week in, week out, but that first half out there was an absolute disgrace. It’s an embarrassment to the shirt, an embarrassment to the history of this football club, and an embarrassment to the thousands of fans who travel all that way or sit up watching this absolute rubbish.

You look across that pitch and you try to find one player who has shown any sort of leadership, courage, or basic understanding of what it takes to play for Manchester United, and there’s nobody. You look at the starting eleven and you think, 'Right, they need replacing, get them out of the club.' But then you look at the bench or think about the replacements coming in, and they’re just as bad, if not worse! It’s a vicious circle, it just keeps getting worse year after year, window after window.

Watching this team at this point honestly hurts the eyes. It’s lazy, it’s spineless, there’s no hunger, no desire to win your individual battles, and no urgency. You give away a cheap goal inside two minutes because nobody wants to do the dirty work or track a runner, and then you spend the rest of the half hiding behind the ball, offering nothing going forward, and looking terrified every single time the opposition attacks.

These players are stealing a living. They’ve had years, they’ve had millions spent on them, and they are nowhere near the standard required. At this rate, until you clear out the whole dressing room from top to bottom and get people in who actually care about playing for this club, Manchester United are going absolutely nowhere."

Shocking footage from Russia’s Krasnodar region shows two men being swept out to sea from the shore during a storm.

According to witnesses, both men were drunk and ignored warnings.
