Ex-Formula One ace on being 'cancelled' and surviving 350km/h crash

Superb performance from Ireland u-21s, beating a star-studded England team 3-1. Tommy Lonergan will get headlines with his brace, Grehan outstanding at the back but Finneran & Devaney's displays in midfield particularly encouraging. Pity such a huge result wasn't on telly.

The email announced that 39-year-old Simranjit Singh, who hasn't played for Ireland for almost four years, had decided to retire. There were warm tributes but it still made many wonder: why now?

As the Israel team travels to Europe where they will play against Austria, Ireland and Kosovo between 24 September - 6 October, Palestinian families are being displaced and dispossessed, their land stolen, their olive trees uprooted, and their histories erased by settlers with the support of the Israeli military. The beautiful game should bring people together, not rubber-stamp apartheid. It’s unconscionable that the Israel men’s football team will participate in the UEFA Nations League this autumn despite clear evidence that Israel’s football association continues to support illegal settlements. Sport should never be used as a public relations spectacle for states committing atrocities. When rules are broken, when occupation, apartheid and genocide are ongoing, we cannot look the other way.
