Pep Guardiola admits Manchester City are “not a complete team” but insists their title hopes are still alive and believes next season will be better. Yet City have readily bounced back from disappointment during Guardiola’s tenure and the manager expects them to do so again. “We are not a complete team to compete, that is the reality, we are in the process of many changes. “But if we can learn quicker, still nothing is lost, we can arrive in the last month with the chances. It allows for extra recovery time after the Forest encounter, but shortens preparation for Wednesday’s Champions League trip to Real Madrid.

A young woman took her own life after more than a decade of living in fear that she would fall victim to Huntington’s disease that killed her grandfather and mother, an inquest heard. ‘The loss of her mother a year earlier hit her incredibly hard,’ he told the inquest. Ms Martinez’s mother, Traz, then passed away in April 2024 when she was only in her mid-50s. As Ms Martinez’s mental health declined, she received support from various services including community health teams and Norfolk and Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust (NSFT). Mr Martinez has since given up work as a teach to become a mental health home carer in her memory.

A week after the United States and Israel launched their latest offensive against Iran, the war has left more than 1,000 people dead as it expands throughout the Middle East and beyond. Iran’s retaliatory missile and drone strikes against Israel and Gulf states that host US military bases have caused fewer casualties thanks to the effectiveness of missile defence systems. The US president has cited shifting war aims, from destroying Iran’s nuclear programme to disarming its missile arsenal to regime change. The greatest danger of a prolonged war is that, instead of replacing the government in Tehran with a new one, the US and Israel drive Iran into chaos and civil war. The Government’s position is the right one, not only in terms of principle and international law but also where Ireland’s interests are concerned.

Jellyfish don’t have backbones, but does the Plaid Cymru leader, Rhun ap Iorwerth?

If the clamour to introduce relegation had been heeded then Wales would have been cast to the winds, perhaps never to return. After this spirited display, the faithful will be back in force to help the team avoid a third successive wooden spoon. Ireland wobbled through last autumn and then hit the canvas with a lifeless performance at the Stade de France. With his back to the wall, Farrell has always ever known one direction in which to head, towards the sound of fire. Nathan Doak became the fourth debutant in Irish colours this season when he came on for Jamison Gibson-Park.

Meghan Markle has cut ties with Netflix. Meghan's huge decision comes just several months after her show on the streaming platform, With Love, Meghan, was not renewed after two seasons. But her decision to part ways with Netflix was amicable, and she and the platform's bosses remain "on good terms". It's a good time for Meghan to have complete control, given recent successes. "Netflix have been a good partner, but she's wanted to go global with the brand for some time, but has been held back by the more cautious Netflix team."

She said there had been an eight cent increase per litre of fuel most days this week. The Government has said the Consumer Protection Commission (CCPC) is to investigate claims of price gouging over fuel. “I had a constructive meeting today with representatives from the fuel industry,” Mr Burke said in a statement. He said a rise to the cost base was behind the fuel price hike in Ireland and that Brent crude was not the right indicator for fuel prices. That doesn’t mean that the crude oil is coming from the UK, but that’s where it’s coming through,” he told RTE Radio.

A virus with no treatment or cure is spreading rapidly in the US — although officials have urged people not to panic yet. The surge comes as infections triggered by other respiratory viruses, such as the flu and Covid, have remained lower level in recent weeks. Patients infected with HMPV tend to develop symptoms within three to six days of infection. Many people with the virus may not seek testing or treatment, so there are likely far more cases than what official data shows. For the flu, on the other hand, they said patients normally experience a cough, but that the other symptoms tend to be worse.
