Only Agyemang could overcome Chiellini and Baresi incarnate. You’re not going to be able to ignore her now

Desperately sad news regarding the passing of the former Premier League referee, Uriah Rennie. Such a trailblazer and loved by many, many condolences to his family and those who knew him.

Such sad news about South London Press shutting down after more than 100 years. It was the first place that gave me a chance to report when I made the transition from teaching and my year 6 class even made appearance in it. Gutting.

Sad news that the South London Press has closed. It was a great local newspaper. It also ran one of the greatest local newspaper stories ever*, "Squirrels on crack".

The government's announcement this morning was an insult to those who have made the UK their home. These migrants are not "strangers", they are our friends, neighbours, and family members. It is shameful that they are being scapegoated in this way.

Always so grateful for these opportunities - another piece for the Observer this week! 📰 @morgankofori.bsky.social #BHAFC 🔵⚪️

Fanfare and Fanguish is a new weekly fan-led feature in @observeruk.bsky.social showcasing the views of a supporter from every Premier League club. Honoured to be editing this and many thanks to @mrabutler.bsky.social for the opportunity.

The last player to do what Myles Lewis-Skelly done at the Bernabeu was Cesc Fabregas and the last 18 year old that needed his ID checked was Tony Adams. Legendary stuff

I’ve been wondering for ages why Declan Rice was not on free kicks after seeing his corner deliveries… now they can never take him off

Hi @karmadrome.com can I DM you please?

Thrilled to have a piece on IUX and Fulham on Josimar, an outlet whose work I have admired for many years. It contains what I promise you is the best right-of-reply you will read all year.

For @tribunemagazine.bsky.social. I went to find out why, despite strong grassroots support for sanctions against Israel, and a live investigation, FIFA’s response has been muted. With input from Bassil Mikdadi and others. tribunemag.co.uk/2025/03/pale...

One of many things this show captures perfectly - the way so many boys and men measure ourselves against each other and judge ourselves “good boys” or “good men” - the problem being that the accepted standards of male behaviour are so low that we end up normalising behaviour that’s still monstrous.

The sort of piece that all mainstream publications should be writing during international week. FIFA/UEFA have shown themselves to be spineless, so it relies on media awareness to raise pressure. Well done @morgankofori.bsky.social 👏🏽 bsky.app/profile/morg...

“‘You’re asking a lot of individuals to risk everything to make a statement that you know is going to be misconstrued by the media,’ he continues, ‘that you know your opponents are going to try and paint as anti-Semitic. So you know, you’re just left with, I think, a rudderless movement.”
