Anybody who doesn't know the dynamics, history and supposed pretexts of murderous pogroms, in the UK and elsewhere, should be informing themselves, sharpish. Call this what it is.

Remarkable to see the France national team footballers at the Euros speaking out so strongly against the far right.

Le soulagement est à la hauteur de l’inquiétude de ces dernières semaines, il est immense.
Félicitations à tous les Français qui se sont mobilisés pour que ce beau pays qu’est la France ne se retrouve pas gouverné par l’extrême droite. 🙏🏾🇫🇷

Sometimes it seems that “Here we go again” would be a more appropriate motto for Leeds United than “Marching on Together”

For @glorymag_, @admiral1914 and us, 50 Years of the Replica Shirt has been a huge labour of love but one we are very proud to have put into the world.
The new exhibition at the @FootballMuseum that we've worked on to coincide with the book launch is the icing on the cake.

The sale of my beloved Southend United is of the utmost urgency. Our chairman Ron Martin needs to engage with the buyers and compromise or we will be finished. I'm lead to believe there is a deal on the table. How it has come to this is down to him. @kimuraperform

It's only fair we leave the final word to the man himself... Roddy Forsyth 🙌
We'll miss your voice, your knowledge and your wisdom - you'll always be a @5liveSport football legend.
Thanks for the memories Roddy...

Matthew Engel writing a shopping list would be worth a read but this tribute to a much-loved colleague is special. If you've read a Guardian sports report in the past 57 (!) years, the chances are that Jeremy Alexander helped make it fit for publication theguardian.com/sport/2023/j…

We don't need any more autopsies of what went wrong for #LUFC. We've all seen it coming, we all know what happened and why. What we need now is news and to hear from Kinnear, Radrizzani and Marathe. They were never backwards at coming forwards during the good times – speak now
