This was a terrible tragedy and I remember it well. At his funeral his elder brother , just a child himself, gave a haunting speech, beating himself up for not being there to protect his little brother. Awful. 😢

Bluesky How are people feeling about Celtic chat on #Bluesky? I think it's quite decent but admit I'm worried about the platform. Not sure it's really growing. I think we keep going as we are but feels like keeping fingers crossed right now! Hope more Celts do come on board. #CelticFC

I have not been able to post because there are so many people on the Garvaghy Road that phone signal is jammed. But I have two takeaways before we drive back to Belfast: • this isn’t a Protestant v Catholic conflict. Members of the Protestant and unionist communities signed an open letter -

Best of wishes to Kevin Sinfield who completes his 7 ultra-marathons in 7 days today at the Grand Final at Old Trafford. It is not just the finish of this latest Herculean challenge, but the final day of his seventh mammoth event in seven years raising much needed funds for MND. A modern day hero.

Case only goes up to 2018. Several of the sameAbu Dhabi sponsors have remained in place as the team has continued to hoover up trophies and talent from rival teams. The panel suggests only about £1.5 out of every £9 was genuinely from these companies. Was it all above board in subsequent years then?

Some food for thought: The Companies Act 2006 makes it an offence for an officer to knowingly or recklessly give an auditor misleading, false or deceptive information (s.501), punishable by up to two years in prison. Fraud Act 2006 charges are also possible.

An excellent overview on the decision by Gavin Bazunu to withdraw from this contentious game, and the disgraceful lack of leadership by the FAI. The teammates who abused Bazunu should be thoroughly ashamed. www.irishtimes.com/sport/soccer...

The Anglo-Scottish border, first agreed at the Treaty of York on this day 1237, has proved one of Europe’s most enduring national land boundaries. The only modifications have been to the 'Debatable Lands’ north of Carlisle and to Berwick-upon-Tweed, retaken by England in 1482.
