Jamie Redknapp fumes over Arsenal penalty decision - 'An absolute disgrace'
Jamie Redknapp fumes over Arsenal penalty decision - 'An absolute disgrace'Arsenal were denied a first-half penalty during their Premier League clash with Everton on Saturday evening, despite VAR scrutinising the incident - and Jamie Redknapp was less than impressed with the verdictView Image Kai Havertz felt he should have had a penalty during Arsenal's clash with Everton (Image: Justin Setterfield/Getty Images)Jamie Redknapp lambasted VAR's decision not to award Arsenal a penalty against Everton on Saturday evening, as Kai Havertz was brought to ground by Michael Keane. However, former Liverpool star Redknapp was less than impressed by the on-field decision, as well as the backing from those upstairs. How on earth have VAR took three seconds to say there's no penalty? The Premier League Match Centre also took to X to explain the decision, citing how there was "minimal" contact between the two players. A post read: "The referee’s call of no penalty to Arsenal was checked and confirmed by VAR – with the contact from Keane on Havertz deemed to be minimal."

You're using your air fryer WRONG! Experts reveal why you should never leave the appliance on your worktop
But it's likely you're using your air fryer wrong, according to experts. 'Air fryers move hot air around inside the machine, and that heat has to escape somewhere,' Mr Roberts added. 'Most people find a convenient corner for their air fryer and it never moves again,' he added. Earlier this year, researchers from the University of Birmingham found that cooking food in an air fryer produces far fewer air pollution particles than other forms of frying. Researchers previously revealed that cooking chicken breast in the air fryer produced fewer air pollution particles than other cooking methodsHowever, there's an important caveat – this is only the case if your air fryer is clean.

Old cottage charm meets modern luxury at €475k Castletreasure home
The vintage silver colour scheme by Colourtrend is appropriate to Orchard Lodge, a 1940s Castletreasure former cottage that has been transformed into a four-bed, two-bathroom family home. The owners, Emma and Mike Hanrahan, bought it in 2017 and renovated it after living in the original cottage for a year. Triple-glazed Aluclad windows create the look: “My favourite spot is the snug/sitting room. “You’ve got great accessibility to the city centre and nearby Douglas village, with all its many restaurants and shops. And you’re a five-minute walk to the 207 bus for the city centre and a 10-minute drive to Cork Airport,” says Stuart O’Grady, of Sherry FitzGerald.

A poll of security staff in supermarket giant Asda exposed a terrifying upsurge in trouble on the shopfloor amid fears the outsourcing of security staff there will put even more workers – and shoppers – at risk, reports The Daily Record. More than a third of staff, 36 per cent, reported being assaulted, while 83 per cent said they have suffered or witnessed verbal abuse, including racist insults and threats of violence. The GMB survey, which quizzed 100 guards working in stores around Scotland was returned last week, revealing less than half, 46 per cent, of security guards feel safe at work.

US caught off guard by scale of Iranian retaliation across Gulf
Gulf states urged US president Donald Trump to pursue diplomacy, not war, warning of threats to energy markets. So far, the vast majority have been intercepted, and western officials have applauded the Gulf states’ ability to defend against the threat. Iranian forces have fired more than 3,000 missiles and drones at the US’s allies in the Gulf and hundreds at Israel. But he said the effectiveness of Iran’s drones would diminish rapidly as more solid drone defences were built. Gulf states have relied largely on fighter jets and US air-defence systems, such as Patriot interceptors, to stop the Shaheds.

Half-Life of Edith Hopkins 'one of my highlights so far this year'
The Half-Life of Edith Hopkins, Conor Bowman Colmcille Press, €20In my review of a previous Bowman book some years ago, I wondered why there isn’t more pot-banging about this author. I have no idea why, but I admired Horace Winter Says Goodbye a lot, and this new anthology of short stories is even better. The title story is a novella and traces the life of Edith Hopkins, retired piano teacher, now scraping through her final days, riven with dementia in a nursing home. I could pot-bang on and on, but alas a short review can’t do justice to this gem of an anthology. It is one of my highlights so far this year.

Kimi Antonelli takes historic pole for Chinese GP
There was an inescapable sense of joy and satisfaction for Kimi Antonelli as he became the youngest pole sitter in Formula One history. His Ferrari team-mate Charles Leclerc finished in fourth, both more than three-10ths down on Antonelli, no little improvement on their deficit in Australia. Mercedes' Kimi Antonelli (centre) with team-mate George Russell (left) and Ferrari's Lewis Hamilton after qualifying. Mercedes’ second front-row lockout indicated that over the single lap they are still the class of the field even as they were pushed closer than in Melbourne. Earlier Russell had won the opening sprint race, with Leclerc second and Hamilton in third for Ferrari.
