I’ve just seen a video of Geese’s entrance at Reading Festival. A montage including Michael Smith’s nine-darter, David Mitchell’s ‘watch the football’ sketch, Big John saying “bosh” multiple times and OG Anunoby’s tip-in winner. Both wildly random and superb in equal measure. 👏

Miguel Freckleton made his Champions League debut in LASK's historic win over Celtic.
He was also part of the St Mirren side that beat Celtic in last season's Scottish League Cup final.

In 23/36 Premier League seasons, the winner (or at least one of the joint-winners) of the Golden Boot scored in the opening round of games.
It is my understanding that Sunderland are holding out for a new front-of-shirt sponsor that matches their current value after qualifying for the Europa League this season. In this piece here. https://t.co/jwRjpI1C4O
