Unai Emery fans favourite to succeed Pochettino later this month. Compensation now double after new Emery contract in place. Villa fans still unperturbed
BREAKING: Mauricio Pochettino has been appointed as Man Utd manager and in order to save time later on has also been sacked. Exit terms currently being negotiated.

Just checked to see who was yellow carded yesterday. Suzuki for Villa… how does Fernandes get away with acting like a toddler throughout the game after every free kick and avoid a card? Absolutely awful officiating. #avfc

Forget the usual names and clubs. We rank Premier League managers on how well they inspire their players, and two English managers are near the top. Should one of them get the England job? Reply and tell us.

Went on to find a further 5 Hume’s Warblers yesterday bringing the weekend total to 9 individuals! Also picked up an elusive Dusky Warbler and Richard’s Pipit to provide some variety to our bird finding. Pretty bonkers in such a small stretch of under-watched coastline!

Man Utd have shipped four goals at home. Only maths is keeping them from being bottom of the league just now. Meanwhile the design for their exciting new stadium has been revised.

All this media noise re:Unai needing to leave Villa to “prove himself” at MU is pathetic. Why swap European pedigree, clear structure, control & ambition for a rain-sodden, leaking shambles? The pressure is on United tomorrow to justify all this arrogance. #MUFC #AVFC @Carra23

Our #Cyprus team hit a major milestone over the weekend in combating illegal bird poaching by removing our 1000th limestick of this autumn camp! We’ve rescued >900 live birds & ensured the arrest of 35 poachers so far. Every trap removed saves thousands more migratory birds!

⚖️ HISTORIC VICTORY IN SICILY! 🇮🇹 Acting on a lawsuit by CABS & partners, the Administrative court in Palermo has officially ended the hunting season across Sicily due to illegal practices targeting endangered birds. ~27,000 hunters grounded & 100k+ migratory birds saved!

Pallas' Warbler yesterday late afternoon in the fading light at Portland. A tricky bird to capture a half decent image being constantly on the move and obscured by foliage etc. @BirdGuides @RareBirdAlertUK @DorsetBirdClub
