Erik ten Hag may have unearthed the missing piece of the puzzle in United's midfieldManchester United may already have a player capable of solving their midfield issues in the shape of Toby Collyer. The Red Devils have already made two marquee signings recently, with Joshua Zirkzee joining the club from Bologna and Leny Yoro snubbing Real Madrid in favour of penning a five-year deal at the Theatre of Dreams. The 20-year-old was one of the Red Devils’ most impressive stars on Sunday afternoon at the Murrayfield Stadium, calmly receiving possession from his centre-backs before driving forward and feeding the ball to his more creative teammates.

The ways in which each version of “Hillbilly Elegy” avoids this crucial topic are different, but both are tragically ill-advised. sandwiched between slapdash social science commentary on the “lurking” “ethnic component.” Vance argues that the bad genes passed down through his Scots-Irish ancestors are the cause of the current social ills he is examining. He bases this argument almost entirely on a blog post from Discover magazine by a writer with a history of contributing to racist, far-right publications. But James Watson himself told me that he’s Scots-Irish, and that that is the best ethnic background to have! Well, I guess if Vance has a “lurking” “ethnic component,” that ought to disqualify him for the position of vice president.
The Apollo began life as a cinema and dance hall complex named Green’s Playhouse after the family which owned it. In 1977, Apollo manager Jan Tomasik became known for defending new age music when the council was asked to prohibit one band in particular – The Stranglers. In 1979, the Apollo hosted ABBA playing their last ever British live performance at the end of a tour of the UK. Regular attendees could see the Apollo deteriorating in the early 1980s, and it was no surprise when the venue closed for good in 1985. The Apollo lives on in many memories, however, and retains its own special place in Glasgow’s history.
That scene spread quickly online — it was even featured on the Hot Topics segment of “The View” — and Jason Kelce has since become something of a social media star. Building on the success of the popular podcast the brothers host and the Campbell’s Soup commercials they have starred in with their mother, he has regularly appeared in ads for hot sauce, charcoal and other consumer products. But since retiring from the N.F.L. in March, what happens for Jason off-mic and off-camera has become increasingly important. Since 2019, Mr. Kelce has personally invested in 20 companies, including some of the ones he represents in ads.

Schools and hospitals are unlikely to be able to meet a 5.5 per cent pay rise from their existing budgets without making cuts elsewhere. Asked where the additional money for public sector pay rises could come from, Mr Johnson said: “It can only come from higher borrowing than they’re planning, higher taxes than they’re planning or cuts in spending elsewhere. There is no fourth option here.”But failing to meet the recommendations of the pay review bodies, expected to be published this month, would set up a clash with trade unions representing the 6 million public sector workers. “The pay review process is ongoing, and no final decisions have been made.

Andy Newport: Plenty of goals but not nearly enough medals is how I’d assess the right-back’s contribution these past nine years.
