Nearly time for one of the biggest games of the year, as Soccer Aid returns to its spiritual home of Old Trafford. Here's hoping with the feelgood factor of England's first win in the fixture since 2018 ending 6 years of hurt, we can continue the winning streak and with Wayne Rooney managing...

Sacked as West Ham boss, shocking decision. An elite 'A' calibre proven manager who has been unceremoniously dumped by a club lucky to have a manager of his quality and standing in the game.
Looks like GPott could be replacing him.
One of the highlights of this or any other sporting calendar, The Masters.
