🥲❤️ This is why football is more than just a game... Carla, Go Ahead Eagles’ laundry worker for 27 years, is retiring at the end of the season. Before the match against AZ Alkmaar, the club and fans surprised her with a special tifo. She was left speechless. 🫂
The Artemis II crew named a lunar crater after Commander Reid Wiseman's late wife, Carroll. What a beautiful and touching moment.
I'm not crying, you're crying 🤧
"WE HAVE FRIENDS EVERYWHERE" ✨
Minnesota United supporters unveil an "Andor"-themed tifo for the MLS club's home opener. Rebellions are built on hope 🩵
It’s important that you understand what happened last night.
Last night, Stephen Colbert interviewed Democratic Texas Senate candidate James Talarico, a candidate who, by all accounts, is on track in the polls to flip Texas blue.
In response, Trump’s FCC reportedly threatened CBS if the interview aired.
CBS caved and pulled the segment, citing “financial reasons.”
In modern American history, no president has been more hostile to free speech than Donald Trump.
But censorship always backfires.
Here’s the full segment Trump didn’t want you to see.
Gary Speed, fine player and even finer human being, passed away 14 years ago today. On Saturday, Everton unveil the Gary Speed Memorial Bench at Hill Dickinson Stadium before the game with Newcastle United, who he also represented with such distinction. The bench bears the message: “IN MEMORY OF GARY SPEED, EVERTONIAN, CAPTAIN, LEADER 1969–2011. A place for what is often unspoken. A place to sit, share and listen.”
The “talking bench” is one of a series introduced across the UK. In the words of @Everton, it’s “a simple but powerful way to encourage conversation, tackle loneliness and isolation, and signpost people to mental health support”. Via a QR code to programmes delivered by Everton In The Community.
“As part of the Club’s commitment to the Premier League’s ‘Together Against Suicide’ pilot, trained @EITC staff will be based in the area around the bench before every home fixture. Supporters who wish to talk, seek support, or learn more about the services available will be able to approach staff confidentially and without appointment”.
The bench, which has the full blessing of Speed’s family, was proposed by @EFC_FansForum as “a meaningful and positive legacy in Gary’s name”. Everton add that it's "a permanent space for reflection, conversation and connection - and a reminder that no Evertonian ever has to struggle alone". #EFC
Where was this outrage when victims advocates have been shouting for years about the lenient sentences of sex offenders?!? If you look at the “migrant” part of this as the issue then you are missing the point, anyone who commits this type of offence should get 10 years minimum 🤦🏻♀️
Three Epping protesters have been jailed - getting LONGER sentences than the migrant who sparked the disorder by assaulting a girl, 14.
Martin Peagram, Dean Smith & Stuart William will serve 2yrs each.
Illegal migrant Hadush Kebatu got just 12months. #TwoTierJustice
Liverpool Football Club is deeply shocked and saddened by the sudden passing of former LFC Women manager Matt Beard.
The thoughts of everyone at the club are with Matt’s family and friends at this devastating time.
Every single Liverpool player on the pitch was involved in Rio Ngumoha's match-winning goal against Newcastle last night.
The only involvement that Ngumoha had in the move was the shot - his first in the Premier League.
Sums up why football fans had such a powerful bond with this generation of working-class players who genuinely felt privileged to be getting paid for doing something they loved. RIP Joey x
