Woking Football Club is pleased to confirm the appointment of Jermain Defoe as the club’s new Manager. ♦️

Aaron Ramsey is running the London marathon next month. Still no update on his football future.

We can confirm that it has been mutually agreed for Head Coach Igor Tudor to leave the Club with immediate effect. Tomislav Rogic and Riccardo Ragnacci have also left their respective roles of Goalkeeping Coach and Physical Coach. We thank Igor, Tomislav and Riccardo for their efforts during the past six weeks, in which they worked tirelessly. We also acknowledge the bereavement that Igor has recently suffered and send our support to him and his family at this difficult time. An update on a new Head Coach will be provided in due course.

@chsingthedragon @CYMROPORT Yep, thirds

@CYMROPORT @pjcadden Based on last time. About £3m out of £10m went back into the game.

Wales fallout after the failure of missing out on the World Cup 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇧🇦 - a look at Craig Bellamy’s management, tactics, subs and his future - Wales issues: a consistent play-off side, age-old problems of player quality and squad depth - financial blow with WC worth £10m

Dylan Lawlor catching the eye for Wales. Craig Bellamy called him “outstanding” against Bosnia. Very calm and composed. Plus Harry Wilson says teammates are “desperate” to qualify for Euro 2028 which starts in Cardiff 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

@CYMROPORT Participation money. It was a £10m pot for Qatar. Split into thirds…logistics, players bonuses, rest back into game/grassroots. Slightly less for this summer but then you add in sponsorship and commercial spin-offs.

@pjcadden Phil, the 10 million who works that out etc? is it fact?

Wales made three subs. Championship players at Swansea, Stoke and Oxford. Squad depth is nothing new. Same issues under Chris Coleman, Ryan Giggs and Robert Page. Bosnia made six. One was Kerim Alajbegovic, he resigned for Bundesliga top-six side Bayer Leverkusen yesterday!

A landmark achievement 👏 Congratulations to Ben Davies, who was presented with his Golden Cap, in recognition of reaching 100 international appearances, by Spurs and Wales legend Cliff Jones last night 🤍

Bellamy on the criticism of his substitutions: "I don't think that's fair. We make changes all the time and we have to. We have a lot of players who don't play 90 minutes at their clubs. We need a squad. We needed fresh energy and I hoped that would lift us. That was the aim."

Bellamy in his press conference last night. "We're going to hurt, but there's a bright future. I'll think about that tomorrow morning because that hurt is sinking in now. It will be difficult to sleep. Tomorrow the sun will rise and I'm going to watch that sunrise." 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇧🇦

We can announce that Gerhard Struber has been relieved of his duties as Bristol City Head Coach. Roy Hodgson will take charge of the Men’s First Team until the end of the season, while the club will task the incoming Sporting Director with appointing a permanent Head Coach for the 2026/27 campaign. The club’s recent performances have not met expectations and therefore Struber and Assistant Head Coach Bernd Eibler will leave with immediate effect.

Sodden morning in Cardiff. Sums up the mood. Thoughts on last night? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇧🇦
