30% of Britons - and 40% of 2024 Labour voters - believe Andy Burnham would do a better job as PM than Keir Starmer, compared to 10-12% who feel he would do a worse job

For other major leadership contenders, the public are more likely to believe they'd do a worse job than Starmer in No10

The Telegraph’s political editor is saying, more subtly, what others are saying brutally.

It’s ’a terrible stadium’; so terrible that it’s a;
- Host Euro 2028 venue;
- Will host Scotland vs Ivory Coast in March;
- Hosted England vs Australia RL int’l;
- Will host RL Magic Weekend in July (6 matches).
- Plaza will host World Cup fan screenings.
- Obvious music concerts to follow.

You get 2 types of opposition fans to our new stadium.
The fair minded type who acknowledge that it’s great & just accept it
And the ones who are very clearly massively jealous, whose own stadiums are not as good, who fancy themselves as ‘a big club’ but aren’t really, so they slag it off.

New YouGov poll gives Reform its lowest lead since last April.

RFM: 25% (+1)
LAB: 21% (+2)
CON: 17% (-1)
GRN: 16% (-1)
LDM: 14% (=)

Looks like hoovering up a series of deeply unpopular, disgraced former Conservative ministers isn't quite the massive vote winning strategy that was predicted

Everton still waiting for specialist to determine whether Grealish needs surgery, but initial prognosis not good

Replacing him tough given lack of creativity

But not the only issue for a side still striving for consistency/home form

Everton without Jack Grealish: How does it look and how can he be replaced?
Losing Grealish’s quality is far from the only issue for a side still striving for consistency and clarity.

Apparently if you have a world class massive modern stadium, your club ‘no longer has a soul’. 😂
“Ey up, these fancy dans ‘ave running water & working toilets, what kind of hoity-toity people are these Zak?! Soulless!”😂

‼️DO NOT TAKE FLAGS HOME‼️

"We are extremely disappointed that some fans took our flags home last night, removing them from the large wooden pole they are on ...
If you’d like to return them, bring them to the United game & leave it on a seat."

Can someone persuade Sean Dyche to stop whinging about towels & make a deadline day move for Dwight McNeil? Thanks.

PS Leeds fans rivalled Forest fans tonight with their Championship-riffic ‘banter’ & chants. ‘Sold your soul for this shithole’ is the cringiest, unfunniest chant ever.
