BREAKING: The Premier League has REJECTED Manchester City’s request to reverse the order of their matches against Crystal Palace and AFC Bournemouth.
Original schedule: • vs Crystal Palace (home) – 13 May
• FA Cup Final vs Chelsea FC – 16 May
• vs Bournemouth (away) – 19 May 2026
City’s request: • vs Bournemouth – 12 May
• FA Cup Final – 16 May
• vs Crystal Palace – 19 May
The Premier League rejected the request due to competition integrity concerns, citing the order of postponed fixtures, the fact that Palace’s match had already been rearranged because of the EFL Cup, and Crystal Palace’s European commitments. Bournemouth also objected, as the change would have reduced their recovery time.

My face after opening the camera post–night routine. ✨
Yes, my skin is real — with its own unique features that change over time.
It has pores. It has texture. And of course… glow.

Now I’ve seen the conversations on the timeline… I’m reminded of something important about the Church.
Jesus never policed people into holiness. He welcomed them, taught them, walked with them and trusted the Holy Spirit to do the deep work. We must do the same.
Some people who attend our church shared their opinions online. Some of those opinions I agree with; some I don’t. Some of the tweets were unwise; some were deleted; some doubled down. That is the human journey. Growth is rarely neat.
But let me say this clearly:
They are still our people.
We don’t deny them. We don’t discard them. We don’t treat them as PR problems (I mean, we are not a company, we are a church) They are all members of our church, (from the one whose video started it, to the ones that were annoyed by it), and we love them.
In the Corinthian church, there was zeal, confusion, immaturity, and even clashing ideologies, yet Paul didn’t abandon them. He taught them. He corrected them. He walked with them until truth was formed in them. The only person he removed from fellowship was someone living in open, unrepentant sin. That’s not what this is.
And even then, he brought him back into fellowship in 2 Corinthians.
Most of what you saw online is not “rebellion”; it is discipleship in progress.
Opinions shaped by culture will be reshaped by truth. Ideologies will be submitted to Christ over time. We don’t throw people away because their sanctification is still unfolding.
CCI is not a museum for the perfect. It is a church. A church for people being transformed into the image of Christ.
And all of us, every single one, are in that process.
So yes, they belong here.
And yes, God is still working in all of us.
At the end of the day, it’s Reboot SZN and God is set to make an unstoppable move out of us.
Hi @directorpink_, I’m Adetoun, a bead designer in Ibadan. My major tool is my hands, but I need funds to run social media ads to expand my reach and grow my customer base, and to also get a mannequin so I can introduce my beaded bralettes. Thank you.
