If VAR had gone any further back in that Egyptian move Tutankhamun would be involved. How far do you go back? Probably right decision but what a pity, what a goal that would have been. 80 yards, majestic move, precise passing, would have been one of the goals of the tournament,
If you have a spare 3 mins and 45 secs today, watch this fantastic grilling by Sally Nugent on BBC Breakfast.
The very first time I've seen Farage questioned properly about his £5M bung, and it's fair to say, he totally fluffed it.
There are points when you can see Farage tremble and even accuse the BBC of putting him in danger. 🤦♂️
It was for security. It was for cars. Nobody cares. It's no one's business. He won't tell us. DANGER!
At one point, he let slip that the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards may 'disagree' with him on the rules around donations.
He knows he's going to be found guilty on this one. He's in trouble, and his face gave it away gloriously.
Top hats off to Sally Nugent. Stellar work. 👏
The reason why the UK is on its arse is not because of Keir Starmer.
A big reason is that too many people believed some bollocks on a bus 10 years ago.
So far at the 2026 FIFA Epstein Cup before a ball kicked:
- Senegal & Uzbekistan squads treated like criminals upon arrival given full cavity searches;
- Africa’s best referee sent back to Somalia despite having a diplomatic passport;
- Iraq team photographer sent back despite valid visa;
- AIPS (international sport journalist association) calling on FIFA to sort out unacceptable visa issues of African & Iranian journalists;
- 90% of Moroccan fans with tickets denied entry
- 14 members of Iran backroom staff denied visas
Not a word from Gianni ”today I feel black/gay/disabled etc” Infantino.
Former Bayern Club President Uli Hoeness on the club's season ticket prices:
"We could charge more than £104. Let's say we charged £300. We'd get £2m more in income, but what's £2m to us?
"In a transfer discussion you argue about that sum for five minutes. But the difference between £104 and £300 is huge for the fan. We do not think the fans are like cows, who you milk.
"Football has got to be for everybody. That's the biggest difference between us and England."
The words are years old but the sentiment has never been more relevant. While Bayern keep their season ticket prices amongst the most accessible in European football, clubs in this country continue to price ordinary supporters out of the game. Some are charging five, six, seven times what Bayern ask of their fans.
🚨🎙️| Thierry Henry on Liverpool getting dominated by this struggling Chelsea side after Arne Slot dismissed Mohamed Salah’s warning about standards dropping:
🗣️ “Mohamed Salah saw this coming. People laughed when he spoke about Liverpool’s standards dropping, but what did we watch today against Chelsea? That did not look like a serious Liverpool side.
This is a Chelsea team everybody has been calling inconsistent, immature, mentally weak all season… yet they looked sharper, hungrier, more organized, and physically stronger than Liverpool. That should worry Arne Slot a lot.
I heard Slot’s response to Salah, saying standards are bigger than one player. Normally I agree with that. But football does not care about press conference answers, it exposes you on the pitch. And today the pitch exposed Liverpool badly.
When your pressing disappears, your midfield stops competing, and your senior players cannot control the tempo against this Chelsea side, then maybe Salah was not protecting his ego… maybe he was warning people.
Liverpool fans hate hearing this because Salah is a legend, but legends usually recognize decline before supporters do. He has been inside that dressing room every day. Maybe he already saw the drop in mentality, intensity, and accountability coming.
Chelsea did not even need to be amazing today. Liverpool made them look like a top European side through poor structure and lack of fight. That is the dangerous part.
So yes, after watching this performance, I think Salah was right to question whether Liverpool’s standards are slipping. Because elite teams do not get outrun and outworked by a Chelsea side that spent most of the season getting mocked.” #LIVCHE
