This book is about a group of people, most of whom have never met, but all of whom share a profound love. It's the story of a community’s togetherness and pride, unity

Why the ban on drinking in sight of the pitch at football should not be scrapped.

There should be space in the discussion of Manchester City's breach of Premiership rules for an examination of the UAE government's open contempt for rules and the dire and bloody consequences of their rule-breaking outside the realm of sport.

'For Bazunu to refuse to play is a sacrifice that required immense moral courage. Ultimately, he was the lone voice who said no, and that will be remembered in the broken alleys of Gaza.'

Manchester City’s cheat code will inevitably involve a long drawn out appeal. But, having been found guilty of such malign conduct, they must face the most severe punishment. That means relegation to L2, as a minimum, rather than meaningless multi million pound sanctions.

'Footer bags? Are they wearing footer bags?'
"The trouble with you, Spode, is that just because you have succeeded in inducing a handful of half-wits to disfigure the London scene by going about in black shorts, you think you're someone. You hear them shouting "Heil, Spode!" and you imagine it is the Voice of the People."
Fans of PG Wodehouse (Farage's favourite author btw) may recall Roderick Spode & the black shorts. Clearly fascist Danny Tommo has not read Wodehouse. Picture outside the Daily Mail 9th Sept 2026
