Bravely went to Juve vs Inter in Turin on Saturday, to see if I could do it cheaper from London than Sunderland vs Brentford two weeks earlier. Can I just shock you?

I flew to Italy to watch Juventus... and it was cheaper than going to a Premier League game
Exorbitant cost of rail fares at home mean flying to Italy is cheaper, but how do the two match-day experiences compare for value for money?

Liverpool and Arsenal fans are at war... over their songs
North Londoners stand accused of imitating You’ll Never Walk Alone and unoriginality but can any chants be truly authentic?

I really enjoyed the Birmingham Tom Brady doc, found it far more interesting than its many similar predecessors, largely because it makes no attempt to paint Brady as cuddly / relatable. It's funny, too

Euro 2025 winners’ visit to PM’s residence lacks riotousness of 2005 Ashes heroes, but they did celebrate with sausages and Pimm’s

Morning! This is an exclusive extract from my new book Maybe I'm Amazed, about my autistic son James & how music became our shared language. Wait for the Velvet Underground bit at the end www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

After John Harris’s son was diagnosed, conversation always seemed focused on the things he would struggle with. But a shared passion for playing music grew into something James could do – brilliantly

Went to Benidorm for first day of Cheltenham. Going: hard to very hard www.telegraph.co.uk/racing/2025/...
