Ruben Neves on Diogo Jota 💔
“I still talk to him. Few people know this. We have a WhatsApp group with Rute and Diogo, and it's still there, and we continue to talk there. Whenever something special happens, I have the conversations archived on my WhatsApp so I can continue to send him messages”
“It was very difficult. The day after the news, for me, is the most difficult day of my life. The most important aspect for me to be able to play was wanting to play for Diogo first”

With the heaviest of hearts and an overwhelming sense of surrealism that Macclesfield FC can confirm the passing of 21-year-old forward Ethan McLeod.
Travelling back from Bedford Town last night, Ethan was involved in a car accident on the M1 which tragically took his life.
Ethan was an incredibly talented and well-respected member of our First Team Squad, who had his whole life ahead of him.
But more than that, Ethan’s infectious personality endeared him to everyone that he came into contact with.
In giving his all in everything he did, Ethan effortlessly pushed us all to be the best we can be - both on and off the pitch.
Ethan’s professionalism and unwavering work ethic inspired everyone, and his lust for life put smiles on all our faces - even on the darkest of days.
News of Ethan’s passing has devastated our entire Club and no words can convey the immense sense of sadness and loss that we feel now.
The deep mental scars elicited from Ethan’s passing will undeniably never heal - but one thing is for sure, and that is Ethan’s vibrant legacy will never fade, no matter how much time passes in the future.
Ethan will live in our hearts and minds forevermore and no matter what the future holds, his unique smile that mesmerised us all will never be forgotten.
Our deepest sympathy goes out to Ethan’s family and friends at this deeply traumatic time, together with an assurance that we will provide as much support as we can to those who need it.
May you rest in peace Ethan - you will forever be a Silkman.
I have an employee, Sarah, who has been my right hand for 6 years. She opens the shop, closes the shop, and treats the business like it's her own. Yesterday, she came into my office shaking, handing me a resignation letter. She said her mom was diagnosed with dementia and she needs to become a full-time caregiver because she can't afford a nurse. I tore up the letter. I told her, 'You are not quitting. You are on paid leave until you figure this out. Your job will be here, and your paycheck will hit your account every two weeks.' I’d rather take a hit to my profits than lose a loyal human being to a tragedy she didn't ask for.
Good people are hard to find, we have to protect them
In horrible circumstances we are dealing with, to see locals offering their home, travel and food to those who travelled but struggling to get home, shows there’s humanity left in this world.
Thank you those who helped and show we’re not only great fans, but great human beings.
🦅🚫 Dean Henderson: “I already knew I would save Marmoush' penalty, I knew where he was going”.
“I lost my dad at the start of the season. And I'll miss him here today, but he was with me every kick of the ball. I dedicate that win to him”.
Mo Salah once said, “I can’t see myself ever playing against Liverpool. That would make me sad.”
He may not be a born Scouser like Trent, but his love for this club runs just as deep.
His loyalty, his passion, his legacy — it’s cut from the same cloth as Steven Gerrard’s.
He gave us everything. And he’ll always be one of our own.
