This was not the script 😅 The Enhanced Games are one of the most controversial ideas in sport right now 👀 In simple terms, they are a new competition where athletes are allowed to use performance-enhancing substances under medical supervision, instead of competing under traditional anti-doping rules. But here’s the twist... ✅ Hunter Armstrong won the Men’s 50m Backstroke as a non-enhanced athlete ✅ Fred Kerley has won the Men’s 100m as a non-enhanced athlete ✅ Tristan Evelyn has won the Women’s 100m as a non-enhanced athlete In an event built around enhancement, clean athletes are winning some of the biggest races. And I LOVE IT!! Because performance is never just chemistry. You can have every possible advantage, but you still have to execute when the moment arrives → Timing, technique, composure, race craft and belief ALL matter when the margins are tiny. That is why I will always back the natural route. The science can push the body. The athlete still has to meet the moment 🚀 (🎥: FearedBuck)

The kind of goodbye football does best 👏🤍 Dani Carvajal’s Real Madrid career has come to an end, with Athletic Club standing alongside Madrid to give him a guard of honour at the Bernabéu. And SO well deserved. After joining the academy in 2002, he's had an incredible 23 years with the club → 13 seasons in the first team, 27 trophies, and SIX Champions League titles!! That is not just longevity, that is legacy 🙌 What I always respected about Carvajal was how he played the Madrid way… Aggressive, committed, emotional, relentless, and somehow always ready for one more battle. A proper warrior’s farewell 💪 (🎥: espnfc)

This is what football really means 🧡 Yesterday, Hull City won the Championship play-off final and secured promotion to the Premier League. In his post-match team talk, captain Lewie Coyle dedicated the victory to his late father, Chris, who passed away suddenly in 2022. And what stayed with me was how he spoke about every player having a “why”. When you’re a player, people see the result. They don’t always see what you’re carrying into those moments. For Lewie, it was his dad. For someone else, it might be a parent who drove them to training, a family who sacrificed everything, or a person they wish was still here to see it. That's the emotional side of the game - the bit that gets you through setbacks, pressure and the days nobody sees 🚀 I also loved that he thanked the staff, because a promotion is NEVER just won by the players (trust me!) It's carried by everyone who keeps the club moving through a long season. Everyone is playing for something... never forget your why!! 💫 (🎥: efl)

This says a lot 👏 Pep Guardiola has admitted regretting not giving Joe Hart a proper chance when he first arrived at Manchester City in 2016. I remember it being a HUGE early call; Hart had been at City since 2006, won a joint-record four Premier League Golden Gloves, and seen the club transform. Pep wanted a different profile, and moved quickly. So I really do respect his honesty here... Football is full of decisions made at speed, under IMMENSE pressure, with huge consequences for people’s careers. I’ve seen how one manager’s belief (or lack of it) can completely change a player’s path 📈📉 That’s why this admission lands. In leadership, conviction matters. But so does reflection. The best leaders aren’t the ones who pretend every decision was perfect. They’re the ones willing to look back and learn from it ✍️ → You can be decisive without being closed-minded. → You can be confident without being stubborn. → AND you can be a great leader while still admitting you got something wrong. As Pep’s City chapter nears its end, this feels like a fitting reminder of the character behind the legacy. Genius on the pitch, grace in the reflection 🩵 (🎥: SkySportsPL)

That shirt really does come with feelings attached 😔 Harry Maguire has been left out of England’s World Cup squad and, judging by his reaction, he’s gutted. And honestly, I get it!! When you’ve represented your country, you don’t just casually move on when the call doesn’t come. You replay every training session, every match, every “surely I’ve done enough?” moment in your head 😵‍💫 International football is strange like that. One minute you’re singing the anthem with your chest out, the next you’re watching the squad announcement like the rest of us, wondering who made the graphics package 😅 Managers have to make tough calls. That’s the job. But from a player’s side, it hurts when you still feel you’ve got something to give. Fair play to Maguire for wishing the lads well. Because deep down, every international footballer knows the truth: You never really stop wanting one more cap ❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

One application can change everything 🚀 Back in 2023, a friend sent me the link for Channel 4 and Lloyds Bank’s new Black in Business initiative. Within 24 hours, I had applied. The initiative came from data that made the issue impossible to ignore: 84% of Black business owners had experienced negative discrimination in previous entrepreneurial efforts, and only 3 in 10 said they would approach banks for finance 😔 We became Cohort 1 winners, and honestly, the whole experience felt magic. The advert, the mentorship, the belief, the doors it opened… all of it. 2.5 years later, The Turmeric Co. was valued at £30m with 20,000+ life-changing reviews. And now.... applications for Cohort 3 are open!!! Don’t just scroll past this. Send it to the Black founder who needs to see it today 👇 channel4sales.com/blackinbusiness

Football updates have officially gone airborne ✈️🏆 An Arsenal supporter was mid-flight with no WiFi, desperate for updates as the title race was unfolding. So the crew got creative and sent him an ACARS message from operations with the score 😅 Imagine finding out your club has won the league through what looks like a receipt from mission control!!! The best bit? He’s framed it. That little slip of paper probably means more to him than most souvenirs ever could; the beautiful game has a funny way of turning completely random moments into lifelong memories. Fair play to EasyJet too - that’s elite customer service for any football fan 👏 (📷: sportbible)

Football never fails to find a new plot twist 😅😱 Southampton have been expelled from the Championship play-offs after admitting multiple breaches of EFL regulations around the unauthorised filming of other clubs’ training sessions!! Imagine playing 40+ games across a season, getting yourself into the play-offs… and then being disqualified like this 😬 Middlesbrough are now back in and set to face Hull City at Wembley, while Southampton have also been hit with a four-point deduction for next season. Honestly? It’s nice to see proper officiating… Premier League’s turn now 👀 Jokes aside, this is a MASSIVE statement on standards. Because if clubs are gaining access to another team’s private preparation, it’s not “elite detail” or “just part of the game”. Preparation is part of football. Marginal gains are part of football. But there has to be a line, and this feels like exactly the kind of moment where the line needed to be drawn properly ❌ Fair play to the EFL for actually acting on it 👍

This picture hits differently now 👶 When I was in Arsenal’s academy, it felt like I was standing right next to the dream. But only 180 out of 1.5 million youth players in England make it to the Premier League… that’s 0.012% 🤯 You’re more likely to be hit by a meteor than make it pro!! ☄️ This lesson is bigger than football. Talent gets you noticed, habits carry you through. → Study your industry. → Sharpen what makes you different. → Fix what needs improving before the market tells you. Don’t just wear the badge. Become the standard it demands 🏆

The supermarket shelf is becoming a health conversation 👀🗣️ For years, food and drink was mainly judged on taste, price and convenience. Now shoppers are asking better questions: → What does this actually do for me? → What’s in it? → Can I trust the brand behind it? That shift matters, because health can’t just be a word on the front of a bottle. It has to be built into the product, the ingredients, the evidence and the way the brand shows up. That’s why I believe the next winners in grocery won’t just be the 'loudest' brands. They’ll be the ones that make health easier to understand, easier to access and easier to trust ✅ Because let’s be honest, nobody should need a science degree, a magnifying glass and 20 minutes in aisle 4 just to work out if something is actually good for them 😅

Leaving football felt like losing a language I’d spoken my whole life 😔 How much of your wellbeing is held together by routine, identity and the people around you. In football, you have structure every day: training → recovery → teammates → staff → a clear target every weekend. Then one day, it stops ✋ When I retired from West Brom, I knew it wouldn’t be easy. But nothing really prepares you for the moment you have to reinvent yourself. For me, rebuilding purpose came through The Turmeric Co. A new mission. A new focus. A different way to keep moving forward. Maybe that’s the reminder as Mental Health Awareness Week comes to a close… When someone’s life changes, don’t just ask if they’re okay. Help them find rhythm again 🧡 Because sometimes the hardest part isn’t moving on. It’s working out who you are without the thing that used to define you.

The little details usually tell you the most 👀 Four months in France and Endrick is already doing a full interview in French!! 🇫🇷 What’s impressive isn’t just that he’s speaking the language. It’s that he’s comfortable enough to speak it publicly, even though it’s not perfect yet. That tells you plenty about his mindset. → Respect for the culture. → Willingness to learn. → Work ethic away from the pitch. And just watch his translator beside him. She looks genuinely proud because she knows the effort behind it 🧡 Four months is insane. Elite mentality!! 🇧🇷💎 (🎥: Footballtweet)

I love this from Wolves 👏 They’re inviting fans to Molineux for a wellbeing and mental health training session, giving supporters practical ways to spot when someone might be struggling and support each other on match days. Aside from the “after this season, they’re going to need it” jokes, this is a really important move!!! Fans spend years following their team through every high, low, false dawn and “surely next season” moment 📈📉 So it feels right that the game gives something back. Because football is more than the result. It is routine, community, identity and connection. I’d love to see more clubs take this approach. A little bit of care in the stands could go a very long way 🤝 (📷: bbcwm)

This is INCREDIBLE 🤯 Rachel Entrekin has just become the first woman to win Cocodona 250 outright, one of the most brutal ultramarathons in the world: a 253-mile race across Arizona 🏜️ She completed it in 56 hours and 9 minutes, reportedly sleeping for just 19 minutes along the way!!!! That’s nearly 10 marathons back to back, through desert heat, freezing nights, almost 39,000 feet of climbing, and the kind of sleep deprivation where the mind can start playing tricks on you. She also broke her own women’s course record from last year improving by nearly eight hours 😱 What I love most is that Rachel didn’t just come back to win. She came back to find her ceiling 🚀 And this wasn’t by chance. It was months of work, a very casual level of superhuman behaviour, and one question: why not me? Maybe that’s the bit we can all borrow (NOT the 253 miles 👀)… Just the belief that there might be more in us than we’ve tested yet 💫

Last few days saw my sitewide CVR drop by 50% overnight coupled with large traffic increases. Checked ad account and my CPC for some high spending ads in the US was around $0.13 Meta randomly spending a lot on audience network placements for some ads with extremely low CPC’s, terrible CVR and bad CPA’s Anyone else seeing the same thing?

A career change is never just a career change 🤷‍♂️ It tests your identity, your discipline, and your ability to start again when the old version of success no longer fits. Honestly - going from professional football to building The Turmeric Co. has been one of the most challenging and rewarding chapters of my life. It meant taking lessons from elite sport, applying them to business, and learning how purpose can become the thing that keeps you moving when the path changes 📈 I’m delighted to dive into even more this Saturday at the @PHCukorg Conference 2026. If you’re curious about health, business, performance, or what happens when life forces you into a completely new chapter, I think you’ll enjoy this one (and yes, I’ll be bringing turmeric shots with me 😉) So come for the story, stay for the lessons, and leave with something a little stronger than your average conference coffee.

Imagine winning La Liga and still having to score past your dad 😅 Every time Pedri wins a trophy, he keeps a brilliant family tradition alive: he takes a penalty against his father, Fernando. After Barcelona’s latest La Liga title win, they did it again!! 🏆 Fernando was once a local goalkeeper, but reportedly stepped away from football after the passing of his own father. So for Pedri, this is more than a post-trophy kickabout. It’s a tribute, a family ritual, and probably one of the most personal penalties he’ll ever take. I love it because it shows the lighter side of success. The trophies matter, of course, but the best wins are usually the ones you get to share with the people who helped you get there ❤️ (🎥: 433)

Fun fact: I never planned to build a business 🤷‍♂️ Football was the dream. Playing in the Premier League and for Wales gave me everything I had worked for. But when your true purpose calls, you have to follow it with passion!! ❤️ When I started @TheTurmericCo. with my dad in 2018, our dream was to see turmeric shots that actually worked on retail shelves. Eight years and over 20,000 life-changing reviews later, I can see what the blend that helped ease my pain and inflammation as a young player now means to so many people 🥹 But seeing our shots front and centre in Sainsbury’s during marathon season was a different kind of special 💫⭐️ Thank you to Nectar, and the incredible team at @sainsburys for making this happen. The mission now: 1 million life-changing reviews from people making our proven blends part of their daily routine 🫡
