🇺🇸 Ashley Westwood with the first time finish!

The 36-year-old was on the scoresheet last night for Charlotte as they beat New York Red Bulls 2-0 in MLS.

Dean Smith’s side featured four Englishmen in their victory.

@claretcrumpet Big risk but we’ve done that before. Caveat that Cardiff had (probably) the biggest wage bill in the league which normally correlates to league position.

"BOSS FED UP OF COUNTY HALL'S 'LATE PAYMENT'"
@PaulFaulkner2 for @LancsTelegraph

An East Lancashire firm that supplies building Security Services to Lancashire County Council claims the authority is repeatedly late paying bills.

[Made In England @BuyEnglishMade]

Cadbury was founded in Birmingham in 1824.

In 2010, it was acquired by an American company.

Today, much of the profit from one of England's best-known chocolate brands flows to overseas shareholders.

The UK chocolate market is worth over £8 billion a year. If just 10% shifted to English-made producers, that's £800 million supporting businesses, jobs and investment here.

[🚫👁️Drinks on Saturday🇺🇸 @drinkonsaturday]

Those urban downhill courses are absolutely brutal. When you watch the riders at full speed, you truly grasp just how hazardous they are—narrow streets, razor-sharp turns, concrete barriers, and drops that punish the slightest mistake.

The latest Red Bull Trials left everyone in awe. The footage was spectacular: raw power, laser-focused precision, and balls-of-steel commitment as the riders launched down the course. One wrong deviation, a slip of concentration, or a tiny error in body position and it would’ve been over the instant they left the gate.

These athletes aren’t just racing bikes—they’re dancing with physics at the edge of control, turning cityscapes into high-stakes playgrounds. Pure adrenaline. Respect to every rider who puts it on the line. 🔥

[AlwaysClaret @AlwaysClaret]

Two absolute legends and both fantastic servants for the club.

Good luck to @Ben6Mee on your retirement and to @clarkeandcarrie on being appointed the chair of Mind.

Proud to have seen you both lead Burnley Football Club 💜💙

@claretcrumpet I'm not sure you can build a team around Hannibal due to consistency and emptinal control but some player on his day. Good world cup and he'll be sold..
