Not long after I joined the Guardian, I managed to get Shane MacGowan to write three short but beautiful pieces for what was then the arts blog. You can read them here theguardian.com/profile/shanem…

You've seen their national sport, why would you want to see their rugby? That question was asked re apartheid South Africa a half century ago in support of the sports boycott, how long will Israel's apartheid violence be tolerated in world football?
Doc Jazz ✌ طارق@docjazzmusic

Israeli occupation forces again attacking worshipers this morning at dawn - a video that clearly shows how it is literally an army attacking unarmed Palestinian civilians without any provocation.

If South Africa's apartheid regime had been able to rely on the same enablers in the US political and media class on whose unconditional loyalty Israeli apartheid depends, Nelson Mandela would have died in prison...
Ryan Grim@ryangrim

The Washington Post ed board, which laudably crusaded for accountability after its columnist Jamal Khashoggi was murdered, is now saying that the killing of another journalist, Shireen Akleh, is basically the fault of Palestinians who provoked Israel. Utterly without shame.

Glasgow Celtic was fined by UEFA for its fans flying Palestinian flags to express solidarity with Gaza under bombardment; now Ukrainian flags are everywhere. Will FIFA's firm, quick and entirely appropriate action vs. Russia make double standards untenable?
AJ+@ajplus

While FIFA suspends Russian football teams, Palestinians have been calling on FIFA to boycott Israel for years. This is one of many double standards Arabs are calling out in the West's reaction to Russia invading Ukraine.

Popular former midfielder returns to club, buys a host of exciting attacking talent but can't stop the goals at the other end. Are Chelsea 2020 actually Tottenham 1994?

One year since I wrote this piece. It feels like a different lifetime. Still here though, still telling stories, still making it work as a freelancer in a pandemic. Thank you to everyone who's come along with me and made that possible theguardian.com/football/2019/…
