Can’t we just talk about and watch the football? If we want to listen to the politics of a nation then we would watch the news.

🚨 Gary Neville’s Hypocritical ITV Rant: Cashing US Paychecks While Slamming America’s Borders

Gary Neville was in full righteous outrage mode on ITV, slamming the US for denying Somali referee Omar Artan entry to the 2026 World Cup.

Waving the Statue of Liberty as a backdrop, he called it “ridiculous” and demanded America “give over their land to the world of football” for the tournament.

Spare me. If Neville felt that strongly about principles over security, why fly to America, take the big ITV paycheck, and enjoy the hospitality while criticising the host nation?

Real conviction would have meant making a stand, declining the gig or boycotting the coverage instead of the comfortable studio rant.

Let’s be clear on why Artan was denied entry: U.S. Customs and Border Protection cited “derogatory information,” including associations with suspected members of terror organisations.

He was deemed inadmissible under U.S. immigration law after secondary vetting, despite a valid visa and diplomatic passport.

Somalia’s inclusion on heightened security lists (due to ongoing terror risks) triggered extra scrutiny.

The world is a dangerous place right now. Islamist terrorism, regional conflicts, and migration pressures aren’t abstract, they’re real threats.

No country, not even for a football tournament, should be expected to throw its laws, borders, and national security out the window just because the person in question is a referee.

FIFA picks the officials; the host nation still controls its borders. Safety first.

Hypocrisy aside, Neville’s selective outrage ignores the bigger picture.

America is hosting for the world, but not at the expense of vetting those who enter.

My Twitter feed is just full of the yanks and Brits arguing before a ball has even been kicked at the World Cup…. And I’m enjoying every second of it 🍿🤣🤣

@pieman80 I’m not confident but the takes I’ve seen from people based on a training session match is insane.

Multiple sources have indicated to me that Swindon Town have made Callum Knowles redundant. Callum is the club's sole permanent member of staff in the media and comms department, and his application and commitment to a trying role have been impressive during my short time back covering Town. I do not yet know how Swindon plan on replacing a redundant role that covers the vast majority of their media operation.

@so69fangroup Holloway mentioning Millwall fans punching police horses wasn’t on my card that’s for sure

[rob lockyear @roblockyear90]

Holloway just thrown Mabete under the bus and in the next sentence tells everyone to not pick on his players. Blokes a cunt
