Over a third of the National League season is done and dusted and Scunthorpe are sixth, but only three points behind leaders Carlisle, with a game in hand.Since the beginning of last season, they have lost just nine of the 63 league games they have played. Two victories in the National League North play-offs last season secured automatic promotion back to the fifth tier at the first time of asking. It is hard to believe it is the same club relegated out of the EFL after a 72-year stay in 2022 – and saved from a dark, uncertain future by…
Any head coach need to be adaptable, changing their approaches to reflect the football trends. But there are often elements that are unshakeable – for Tottenham boss Martin Ho, that is individual development.It is a ideal that has been at the forefront of his approach since his early days of coaching and has carried him through a range of roles. “I’ve always had a feeling for wanting to support and help people, then having a real passion for football and wanting to put both of them together,” he said.”Going into coaching was big for me because I was able to…

Patrick Morrisey said.Machines had been pumping water out of Alpha Metallurgical Resources Inc.’s Rolling Thunder Mine near Belva, about 50 miles (80 kilometers) east of the state capital of Charleston.

There’s a desperate need for a moral reckoning among the global Jewish population after more than two years of Israeli-inflicted horrors in Gaza. From the mass starvation of Palestinians to AI- and cloud-enabled killing, Jewish complicity, both in Israel and across the Diaspora, has been a profound moral failure. I write this as a Jew who has spent decades opposing Israel’s suffocating hold on the Jewish Diaspora, and as a man whose family was murdered by the Nazis in the Holocaust. Since 7 October 2023, we have witnessed a genocide on our watch, as Jews and as citizens. Now is…
Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman is expected to lobby US President Donald Trump over the UAE’s support for the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in Sudan when the two leaders meet at the White House next week, multiple Arab and western officials have told Middle East Eye. The move, which follows a phone call last week between Mohammed bin Salman and Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) commander Abdul Fattah al-Burhan, would mark a rare direct engagement between the Saudi ruler and Trump on Sudan. Until now, the conflict, which has been raging since April 2023, has taken a backseat diplomatically to Israel’s…

Vitek was brought in on a season-long loan but has surpassed any expectations from when he first arrived at the club and is now keeping O’Leary out of the team having recovered from his injury, due to a run of dominant performances by…

Casemiro’s Manchester United career has been in jeopardy more than once since he joined the team in 2022. After the Brazilian midfielder’s woeful performance in a 4-0 thumping by Crystal Palace in May 2024, pundit and former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher insisted time had run out. He urged Casemiro to finish the season and then seek a move to MLS or Saudi Arabia.”I always remember the saying: ‘Leave the football before the football leaves you,'” Carragher said in a brutal takedown. “The football has left him. At this top level, he needs to call it a day and move.”Three weeks…
