Should never celebrate a manager losing his job, but it was the right call by Ineos. Restores some faith in their ability to run the footballing function.
Writing was on the wall after the last press conference and the previous two performances. Wish Ruben well …

If Amorim can’t get a performance out of his team today, he’ll have to go. These are the occasions he is expected to win.
Leeds are on a good run, but they were a Championship side last season. A European calibre team are swatting these aside

Why not … at this point I’m willing to try anything other than Amorim ball
He was class yesterday, was in the stadium watching. Ayden deserves a shout out as well

Congratulations to Norris, commiserations to Piastri.
On pace, Lando is the quicker driver. Consistency and cleanness of racing, Oscar is the stronger of the two.
Good to see McLaren back on top.

Final race of the season … the world champion has to come from the papaya team.
Start will be chaotic.

United are terrible when they need to break a team down. The more we have the ball, the worse we play

I’d agree with your overview. I think last night is one of the worst performances we have seen under Amorim at home.
I think Ineos are making the right appointments from a club structure perspective. But manager is still the big question. He must qualify for Europe this season.

You always will get a visceral reaction after a bad defeat. But there have been a few good games in his tenure.
I think his team selection and in game management is suspect. Not sure he is the right manager for the long term future of our football club

I'd go as far to say that the last episode of season four of The Bear might be one of the greatest episodes of TV I've ever watched.
It is just half an hour of four people talking outside the back of a building ... no change of scenery. Simple, but expertly acted and delivered.

Man Utd incredible Academy landmark reaches 88 years
Read the story of an incredible sequence that started way back on Saturday 30 October 1937.

It’s been a better couple of weeks for the Red side of Manchester … but even in the doom and gloom, it’s this story that makes me proud to be a United fan and why I stay. I hope this continues for another 88 years

Both games will be good to remake ... especially Zero. Zero has aged less well than other games because of the annoying back tracking. Enjoyed both in their day

Would have loved to have recreated the scene from Djamgo Unchained with the exploding cart …
It brings me no end of delight that Europe only need 2.5 points from today’s session to put this to bed.
Americans have been classless and obnoxious (shock, I know).
Loved seeing McIlroy, Rose, Lowery and Tommy giving it them back … Seve would be proud

Keegan Bradley defends US Ryder Cup fans as just ‘passionate’ amid chaos

Captain rejects suggestions his team stoked up trouble

‘I don’t appreciate those words that you just said’
Keegan Bradley refused to condemn American Ryder Cup fans after the grim scenes that formed a backdrop to day two at Bethpage Black. Bradley went so far as to curiously suggest spectators had been “violent” during the Ryder Cup in Rome two years ago. Bradley’s approach was in stark contrast to that of his European counterpart, Luke Donald, who believes some those in the galleries engaged in unacceptable conduct.
Europe lead their hosts 11½-4½ heading into the final day. Just as striking on Saturday, though, was a series of unacceptable shouts towards European players. These were personal – especially in the direction of Rory McIlroy – and regularly delivered as golfers were preparing to play. McIlroy and Shane Lowry completed a fourball victory with state troopers lining holes. Continue reading...

It's another defeat for Manchester United & Ruben Amorim.
A superb win for Brentford, and a big three points for Keith Andrews' side.
