We will never forget the words of 6-year old Hind Rajab: “The tank is next to me…please come take me, please. Please stay with me…It’s almost night, I am scared…” Israeli forces shot 335 bullets at the car she sat in waiting for help. 335.

Israel committing genocide in Gaza, world's leading experts say bbc.in/42bgCdY

We came to this country as refugees. This photo was taken just months after we arrived at our refugee centre in Gosforth, Newcastle. My brother is on the left; I’m the grumpy one. I was 9, he was 11, & neither of us could speak a word of English.
I was behind the goal at Fulham to see Alejandro Garnacho score his first PL goal for United in 2022. He was such an exciting talent and had such a bright future. To see him go so soon to a rival in Chelsea for a pitiful £40 million just feels very, very wrong. A real shame.
Sam Pilger retweeted
Today in Utrecht a grim milestone was marked; for the 2nd year in a row, a Dutch activist group laid out children’s shoes & read aloud the names & ages of the children who have been killed by the Israelis in Gaza. Today they read 19k names. It took almost 6 hours.

Unless Manchester United reach the FA Cup quarter-finals, the 2025-26 campaign will see them play the fewest number of games in a season since 1914-15. (Seasons impacted by war are excluded).
Manchester United know Andre Onana is a liability and not good enough but are still inexpicably staring the season with him. Once again, this is on them.
That is an embarrassingly low fee for United to even consider accepting, which borders on negligence...

#MUFC fans have been through a lot but the thought of selling Kobbie Mainoo for a manager with 7 wins in 29 Premier League games feels like the final straw. Feelings of utter revulsion.

So @officialgtfc are playing @ManUtd tomorrow for the first time since 1948. Me and Tomo therefore decided to do a little away day guide for any United fans making the trip - a few things may have changed in the last 77 years… #GTFC #MUFC

The world let this happen
Mark Hughes is such a massively underrated player in the history of the Premier League

This is a penalty. However, I can understand why the referee didn’t give it instantly. But VAR should have recommended he change his decision. The problem is all too often VAR is more keen to back their referee colleague rather than apply the correct decison.

United should not be going into this season with the same number 1 and 2 keepers who have proven themselves not good enough. For all the encouraging moments today, a glaringly obvious weakness has not been addressed this summer and already cost them in the first game
Sam Pilger retweeted
Manchester United started a goalkeeper who’s not even good enough to be their back-up and he predictably cost them. Thats on them.
