The Mail calls out racism on its back page, while promoting unsubstantiated, outright racism on its front page.

Not sure if Man United owner Jim Ratcliffe will see this being as he literally migrated to Monaco to avoid paying tax in the UK, but we wanted to put this up outside the stadium anyway….

!! … ah

Good afternoon. Wayne Rooney’s bicycle kick against Manchester City is closer to David Beckham’s halfway line goal against Wimbledon than it is to the present day

The UK Number 1 when Harry Howell was born was “American Boy” by Estelle featuring Kanye West.

What for, exactly?

AFCON is in session 👀

And what a better way to start the tournament than with an overhead GOLAZO by #Morocco attacker Ayoub El Kaabi 🤩

The UK Number 1 when Marli Salmon was born was “Sexy Chick” by David Guetta featuring Akon.

Wow, he looks just like him!

Arsenal would currently be top of the league even if they had conceded every shot on target David Raya has saved since week 2.

Bétis had grandads as their mascots today 😭

One like = One footballer* scoring a goal† I find enjoyable

“Four days after Russia started a war in Ukraine, FIFA and UEFA suspended Russia. We are now 716 days into a genocide – and yet Israel continue to be allowed to participate. Why, why is it double standards? FIFA and UEFA must suspend Israel.”

GSC withdrawal hits hard in internationals. What could of been @goalscorerc.bsky.social

8️⃣8️⃣⚽️
Only 45 players have ever scored more Premier League goals than Erling Haaland.

He’s currently level with Dennis Bergkamp.

The UK Number 1 when Rio Ngumoha was born was “I Kissed a Girl” by Katy Perry.

The UK Number 1 when Max Dowman was born was “The Climb” by Joe McElderry.

The UK Number 1 when Jeremy Monga was born was “Evacuate the Dancefloor” by Cascada.

Maybe 👍

I don’t know, to be honest. It’s not for me, it’s for the prize, and not having the £500 on offer makes it seem less worthwhile. Even if it were on offer, maybe it wouldn’t do it given the season’s two days away.

Sorry all, doesn’t look like GSC is going to happen this year.

I’m on holiday and have had the time to set it all up but not the inclination. If a sponsor appeared it might make it feel worthwhile but as it stands I just can’t bring myself to devote the time to the game. Sorry.

Mo Salah is asking the right questions

Not had any more time to think about it, I would say probably not but not definite.

Not on X any more, but can DM here or email.

Sorry for the lack of updates on GSC 2025/26.

Honest answer is I’ve not had any time to think about it. If that changes in the next couple of weeks I’ll do my best to set the game up, but there’s a chance we’ll have to take a season off.

‘It’s Arsenal. They won’t just ignore it’ – Thomas Partey, the allegations and what the club knew Arsenal have been aware of complaints about Partey, all of which he denies, for more than three years. Questions are now being asked

For more than three years, Thomas Partey played for Arsenal after being accused of very serious sexual offences.

The midfielder left the club last week and was charged four days later.

@gunnerblog.bsky.social examines what Arsenal knew when — and the impact of their decisions.

The most stupid, appalling, disgusting and disgraceful exhibition of football, possibly in the history of the game.

PSG are an excellent, well structured team that's tremendously fun to watch, I think they've been the best in the world since adding Khvicha in the winter window

it is too bad they are all those things and also a vehicle for advancing the interests of the state of Qatar

The player we can’t write about and football’s ‘systemic failure’ to deal with sexual violence A Premier League player is representing his club despite facing accusations of sexual violence. And nobody can talk or do anything about it.

A player at a Premier League club has been accused of sexual assault by four different women and has carried on playing.

We can't name him for legal reasons.

“It’s a systemic failure,” says Nazir Afzal, the former Chief Crown Prosecutor for North West England.
