After Southampton’s 3-1 victory over Birmingham City, Taylor Harwood-Bellis made some insightful remarks regarding his future at Southampton. The Saints have a big gap to claw back to the top two with Ipswich Town currently 10 points clear in second, while also holding a game in hand. Leicester City are a further five points ahead on top spot, albeit with the same number of games played. Russell Martin’s side needs to be picking up consistent results to try and put some pressure on the top two, who have been relentlessly consistent so far this term. However, the 3-1 victory over…
Rigg has been named in the England Under-17 World Cup squad, having already scored two goals in seven games for the first team this season. He is also the club’s youngest outfield debutant, at 15 years and 203 days. “He is this warrior-like character, a personality and internal mechanism,” Mowbray told BBC Radio Newcastle. He wants to win every tackle, every 5-a-side, every contest he’s in, which is pretty unique in a footballer. “I shouldn’t really say it, but it’s that Roy Keane-esque type of ‘nastiness’. “He’s a nice kid, but not so much of a nice kid when he’s…
Autocracy appears to be winning across the globe, where Enlightenment values are under siege on all fronts. So you might have missed the grave threat to democracy walking among us on our very streets — at least according to nervous, and nerve-wracking, media reports. That threat would be none other than Jeff Yass, the Main Line mega-billionaire — the wealthiest individual in all of Pennsylvania — who has contributed tens of millions to his favored political causes. He gave more than $1 million to a PAC that ran ads against progressive Helen Gym in the mayoral primary in the spring, and now more than one…

Judd Trump admits it is a “bit of a dream” to rank alongside some of snooker’s all-time greats, after winning his third ranking title in a row at the Northern Ireland Open. Trump powered his way past Chris Wakelin with a 9-3 victory in Belfast to move fifth in the all-time list of ranking title wins – two behind Steve Davis and one ahead of Mark Williams capped off a superb week for Trump, who came into the final after a stunning semi-final comeback against Barry Hawkins, showcasing the confidence gained from that result with a fine display on Sunday. The…
According to the Telegraph, Nottingham Forest defender Neco Williams was a summer target for Leeds United despite being a regular for Steve Cooper’s side in 2022-23 – and he might leave on loan. Williams, 22, joined Forest from Liverpool for £16 million in the summer of 2022. In his debut season at Forest, he was mainly Steve Cooper’s first choice, appearing 36 times. However, he has struggled this term. The Wales international, who plays alongside Joe Rodon, Dan James, and Ethan Ampadu on the national squad, has made only one Premier League appearance this season. Serge Aurier is the first…

This house, on the other hand, has its own bar as well as a snooker room, and the…

Ricky Walden is confident that an epidural steroid injection will relieve the effects of a spinal problem and help him get his snooker career back on track. Three-time ranking event champion Walden has suffered several injury problems in recent years, including a bulging disc at the bottom of his spine for the past eight months. As a result he hasn’t been beyond the last 16 of a ranking event in 2017 and has dropped to 24th in the world, having been a permanent fixture among the top 16 for five years. Chester’s 34-year-old Walden had the epidural last month and…
