saw #JohnCena for the first time live at the then M.E.N Arena back in 2003 on the Passport to Pain tour.

I've seen him a couple of times since then too, once again at Manchester in 2014 at a #WWE Live House Show and on #RAW from the then Liverpool Echo Arena in the same year.

End of an era.

The most streamed female artist on Spotify 2025;

Weeks 1-34: Taylor Swift
Week 35: Sabrina Carpenter
Week 36-48: Taylor Swift.

That week 35 Sabrina Carpenter entry is Castleford winning the Regal Trophy in 1994 with Wigan dominating otherwise 🤭

Mjällby, a club from a small fishing village with a population under 1400, won the top division (Allsvenskan league title) in Sweden this year. This happened more than a month ago but what an underdog story! #Football

And another frustrating night watching #MUFC as it finishes 1-1.
That half was frustrating as is the way with modern #ManchesterUnited.

Wan-Bissaka has been the best fullback on the pitch so far.

Bowen has looked threatening for #WHUFC.

#ManUtd got better as the half went on, best chance with a Bruno Fernandes shot skimming the post.

0-0.

Absolutely criminal. I hope there are big protests from the fans. #RugbyLeague
