‘I’ve been fortunate enough to experience how it feels when you’re top of the league for a long time,’ he says. ‘But it was clearly new for some of the players and for a period of time, we handled it well. Alongside Coventry supporter Rob O’Malley, Lampard is promoting the Every Minute Matters campaign, driven by Sky Bet and the British Heart Foundation, and supported by the EFL. The 47-year-old has now managed 263 games and in his first job, at Derby, the team lost only one of their last 12 games to reach the play-offs. This is still a great group but you can see the stress of losing a game and that’s normal, when you get used to winning games.

Since coming into rule, there have been plenty of big games that have been decided by breach infringements, mostly in the closing minutes. This was one where a decision to penalise Armagh ten minutes into the second half felt crucial to the result. Roscommon needed every bit of that as Armagh turned the screw to finish with an 0-6 run, including further doubles from O’Neill and Cian McConville. Scorers for Roscommon: D Murtagh 1-7 (1tpf, 2tp, 1f), D Cregg 0-6 (1tp, 2f), E Smith 1-2, P Carey 1-0, R Heneghan 0-1, D Heneghan 0-1, A Brady 0-1 (45). ARMAGH: B Hughes; P Burns, Peter McGrane, G Murphy; T Kelly, G McCabe, R McQuillan; C O'Neill, A Murnin; O Conaty, F O'Brien, C Turbitt; C McConville, O O'Neill, J Óg Burns.

John O’Reilly grew up in the North Strand in Dublin and has always been fascinated by the city’s built environment. When I got the email back saying they’d love for me to have a show, I was really happy. One of John O’Reilly's pieces in the Walkways of the M50 exhibition. I couldn’t even read it, but I can still appreciate how well painted it was.”He soon began painting graffiti himself, carefully choosing when and where to spray his tag, based on his initials, JOR. With spray paint you’re limited to set colours, so oils really opened up the possibilities.”Another piece by John O’Reilly from his Walkways of the M50 exhibition.

But new research suggests that going for a walk after a meal could be the solution to reducing post-dinner bloating. It can help reduce bloating and pressure, while also supporting a steadier metabolic response after eating. Immediately after eating, blood flow shifts toward the digestive organs and the gut starts rhythmic contractions to move food along. 'If you have a busy schedule or have limited space, you can still use walking to aid your digestion. 'Light stretching, slow stair walking, using a walking pad, or even doing small household tasks can help.

Pat Noctor, president of the Irish Air Traffic Controllers Association, has said flight cancellations appear inevitable. Photograph: Alan BetsonEfforts are being made to minimise disruption to passengers amid ongoing staffing issues with air traffic controllers, Minister for Transport Darragh O’Brien has said.

O’Brien was responding to comments by Pat Noctor, president of the Irish Air Traffic Controllers Association, in an interview with the Sunday Independent. Noctor said flight cancellations appear inevitable, as the system has become increasingly dependent on air traffic controllers volunteering for overtime on rest days.

A top European Union official has rejected the notion that Europe faces “civilisational erasure”, pushing back at criticism of the continent by the Trump administration. EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas addressed the Munich Security Conference on Sunday – a day after US Secretary of State Marco Rubio offered a somewhat reassuring message to European allies. Contrary to what some may say, woke, decadent Europe is not facing civilisational erasure. Ms Kallas told the conference: “Contrary to what some may say, woke, decadent Europe is not facing civilisational erasure. European officials who addressed the gathering made clear that they in turn will stand by their values, including their approach to free speech, climate change and free trade.

Experts now say that there are two opportunities to age better - and potentially live a longer, healthier life. This puts more strain on the heart to pump blood and so blood pressure rises. While research from the Royal Osteoporosis Society has found that we enjoy our peak bone health at the age of 30. Smokers, heavy drinkers, people who never exercise and post-menopausal women are most at risk, although bone loss is also a natural part of ageing. Experts say that as we age we are also at greater risk of heart disease.

Ireland is set to play its UEFA Nations League away match with Israel on September 27, but at a neutral venue outside Israel. A spokesperson for the Football Association of Ireland (FAI) confirmed on Thursday that Ireland will honour both fixtures. A spokesperson for the Israel Football Association said: “We are very happy with the draw and are only concerned with its professional aspects. Earlier this week, Taoiseach Micheál Martin said there are no security concerns to prevent the fixture from going ahead. Political parties, campaigning groups and obsessed individuals should stop trying to undermine, demoralise and sabotage Irish football and just cheer on our International team.”

Celtic manager Martin O'Neill praised his side's character but said standards must improve after Sunday's dramatic late 3-2 comeback victory at Kilmarnock. In his 300th game in charge of Celtic, O'Neill likened his side's resolve to that of his previous Hoops sides, though he admitted it was draining to continually watch his team leave it so late. "Obviously, it's unbelievably satisfying to win, and to win in the manner in which we did at the end was terrific. "The second goal, it's so disappointing. Celtic: Schmeichel,Araujo,Trusty,Scales,Tierney (Saracchi 78), Nygren,McGregor,Hatate (Oxlade-Chamberlain 46), Yang (Tounekti 46),Adamu (Cvancara 46),Maeda (Forrest 62).

Joey Carbery’s season has been ended prematurely after suffering an ACL injury, which effectively means he has played his last game for Bordeaux Bègles. Carbery had been in negotiations with Leinster over a return to the province where he played for three seasons before joining Munster in 2018. The Irish Times understands he has signed a deal to rejoin Leinster, but having played 37 times for Ireland, this is a major blow to his ambitions of breaking back into the Irish squad. Since arriving in France in the summer of 2024, Carbery has played 36 matches for UBB, including 18 starts. Still, he played in six of the club’s games en route to last season’s Champions Cup success, thereby adding to his winners’ medal from 2018 with Leinster.

This individual made a series of protected disclosures about malpractice in the Garda’s armoury division and had contacted Mr Kearney for advice. The Defence Forces Ombudsman, retired judge Alan Mahon, described submissions he had received on the matter as “disturbing”. Last year, after the conclusion of the court-martial, he was promoted to commandant, but only after the intervention of the Defence Forces Ombudsman. He left the Defence Forces soon afterwards and now works as a security consultant. And it is happening at the very moment the Defence Forces are assuring the public they have changed.”A spokesperson for the Defence Forces said it does not comment on individual cases.

The national flag of the Islamic Republic of Iran is waved as thousands gather near Azadi Tower to commemorate the 47th anniversary of the Islamic Revolution in Tehran, last Wednesday. (Photo: Arash Khamooshi/The New York Times)A US attack on Iran is now looking unlikely in the short term, though president Donald Trump is maintaining pressure on the regime. In a speech on Wednesday marking the 47th anniversary of Iran’s Islamic revolution, President Masoud Pezeshkian insisted Iran was not seeking to acquire nuclear weapons . Trump, at Tuesday’s meeting in Washington with Israeli prime minister Binyamin Netanyahu, insisted talks will continue, but warned he may still take action if a nuclear deal is not reached. Demands for human rights and political reform in Iran do not now appear to feature on the talks agenda, despite Trump’s comments that regime change would be welcome.
