Let’s hope the FA takes up the ticket price fight with Fifa on behalf of the thousands of England fans wanting to go to the World Cup. £5,000 for all eight games if* (*big if*) England reach final is unconscionable. It’s actually immoral. The FA can surely see that. Thomas Tuchel’s team need as many supporters behind them as possible, especially members of the England Supporters Travel Club, backing the team in the difficult moments that lie in store. I know fans, some top cappers, just going for a couple of games now, not even the full group stage, because of the cost – tickets, internal travel, accommodation, taxes, etc. Fistfuls of dollars. Bagfulls of debts. As well as greed, it’s also naivety by Fifa. Pricing out real fans risks problems with segregation. Plus the atmosphere will be diluted if many of the usual noise-bringers are priced out. TV will hate that. It pays Fifa fortunes for atmosphere generated by supporters. Fifa argues that money gets ploughed back into the game. But why alienate those who help make the game special? Imagine if there are empty seats as at the Club World Cup. Fifa forgets Jock Stein’s great maxim. “Football without fans is nothing.” So treat them properly, not as cash machines. Otherwise, World Cup 2026 risks becoming the Corporate Games. The FA rarely stands up to Fifa nowadays. The last time was 2011 when then chairman David Bernstein stood up to Sepp Blatter. (In 2022 it quickly backed down over armband-gate). Who now will stand up against Fifa? The FA could, of course, offer to subsidise some of the tickets from the substantial revenue it will make from Fifa but really the governing body of the global game should see sense. Fifa’s slogan is: “For the Game. For the World”. Not “For The Few”. #FIFAWorldCup

In Loving Memory of Kelly Kelly was a remarkable coach, mentor, and friend whose kindness and selflessness touched everyone who knew her. She devoted her life to making a difference in the lives of young people, guiding them with compassion... bit.ly/48GEyZj

@LFC Humiliation personified. Such a lack of effort and intensity. Awful defending all night

90+1' - Goal for PSV. Couhaib Driouech. [1-4] #UCL

@mattladson Can't wait for Van Dijk to talk about keep working hard and togetherness in his post match interview.

As the Liverpool fans head for the exits, PSV fans wave and sing always look on the bright side of life. Not a lot bright about this Liverpool performance, a 9th defeat in 12 games.

@DaveOCKOP He is miles off it.

Shambolic. Not only Konate's fault but it's enraging that Liverpool are kept in the dark around his future and he's putting in performances like this. Come out and commit to the club or have the decency to say you're leaving. It's about respect. We are all over the place. Conceding goals from our own errors rather than intricate play from opponents. Woeful.

@LFC I don't understand how Slot continues to play the same players that just aren't performing. Konate, Gakpo and Kerkez so far off their levels from last season.

@EBL2017 One of the most underrated players in the Premier League

Curtis Jones dispels the notion that England don’t produce technically proficient and dynamic midfielders. He doesn’t lose the ball and can dribble his way out of a phone box. He’s also athletic which helps him press, make dynamic runs into space, and get on the ball. Special.

The @ChicagoFire have hired Gregg Broughton as their new sporting director. Find out all the details behind the move. 👇
