🔥 Arsenal could start Max Dowman in their biggest game of the season today. 16 years old, huge game, huge pressure. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 That’s one thing at club level. For England, it’s another entirely. Chris Eldergill on why a World Cup call-up would be the WRONG move.

🏆 WORLD CUP PREVIEW NIGHT AND BOOK SIGNING EVENT 📍 The Volley, Old Street, London 📆 Thursday 15 May ⏱️ 7.30pm to 10pm ⚽️ Our World Cup Preview Night and book signing, will be headlined by Italia 90 legend @RealPaulParker2. ✍️ Panel also includes Pitch authors @ThatWorldCupFan, @RhysWRichards, @JBennettWriter, @SamindraKunti and @TaylorColumnist and we will explore tournaments past, present narratives and what lies ahead as fans count down to this summer’s World Cup.

🚨 FIVE new reads available now on The Sixty Six. 🇺🇸 Tickets, travel and accommodation for Florida friendlies 📈 UPDATED World Cup Squad Tracker following latest round of PL games 🎟️ @ThatWorldCupFan Andy Milne on how FIFA are in danger of destroying the World Cup’s very soul 🧐 Squad Tracker Analysis: is there a growing case for taking Bournemouth’s Alex Scott this summer? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 How being England manager is no longer the ‘impossible job’

EXCLUSIVE: How FIFA is pricing out the true fan 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 “Passion, not profit, is why I follow England… I do so fully aware of the absurdity, the irony, and the injustice of it all, but also with hope: that one day FIFA might balance commercial interests with the needs of true fans - the ones who make the World Cup what it is.” 🎟️ England super fan and The Sixty Six’s Andy Milne feels FIFA’s ticket prices, resale schemes and rising costs are not just pricing fans out but threatening the tournament’s very soul.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 England hadn’t been to a World Cup in 12 years. So in 1982, a 19-year-old from Manchester set off for Spain with a rucksack, a tent and no real plan. ⚽️ Andy Milne aka @ThatWorldCupFan spent the last four decades following England across the world, becoming synonymous with the travelling fan. 🌍 This is where it all started. thesixtysix.counterpress.media/history/backpa…

@CheapPanini We laughed about this watching the game. My son said he had more wrinkles than utterly brilliant. He was the standout spectator for our family too. As my son said ‘he’s got more creases than my bed!’
