Derry City FC in a bit of bother after a bit of bother the other night. Having seen the footage of the Bulgarian hoolies being marched to the ground, I think it’s fair to say that any future UEFA matches are going to need to be approached in a different way.

Coroner rules for inquest into Stiles' 2020 death England World Cup winner Nobby Stiles died with a traumatic brain injury, a court heard as a coroner ruled an inquest into his death must be held. Stiles, 78, a former Manchester United footballer and 1966 World Cup winner, died with the injury chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), which has been associated with head traumas, claimed to be from repeatedly heading a football. Chris Morris, area coroner for Greater Manchester South, told Stockport Coroner's Court that a brain expert had examined samples and medical records and due to the injury a full inquest would be required. Stiles died in October 2020 after a long illness but his family has since campaigned for football authorities to do more to help former players cope with injuries they claim were caused during their playing days. Mr Morris said "for reasons not entirely clear to me" Stiles's death was not at the time reported to the coroner's office for investigation, which had only begun after information provided by the former footballer's family.

Plaque at my bus stop in Buncrana, County Donegal, Ireland - ‘On May 4th 1922 the Anti-Treaty IRA seized money from the Royal Bank (AIB.) This was during a National Truce agreed by both sides the previous day. Free State troops arrived to confront the Anti Treaty IRA and in the gun battle that subsequently broke out, two young girls lost their lives. Tragic events like this led to the outbreak of the Civil War. The two young girls died in Derry infirmary: ESTHER FLETCHER aged 9, R.I.P. MARY ELLEN KAVANAGH aged 19, R.I.P.’
