In an unseasonable black bomber jacket, with heavy duty company beside him, David Sullivan took his seat. Against the advice of the stadium’s operators, unbowed by serious allegations placed against his name and the weight of public opinion, West Ham’s major shareholder, the former co-chair, sat with arms crossed, always conspicuous by his presence.By beating Portsmouth in relative comfort, West Ham, the club where Sullivan’s name is no longer above the door, had secured a heartening Carabao Cup passage to the second round. There, they will be reunited with their former Premier League peers. The serious Championship business begins next Sunday at Burnley. Whether Sullivan travels north for that remains to be seen. It cannot be ruled out. Continue reading...
Celtic defender Auston Trusty admits he missed the start of pre-season as his father was in hospital. The centre-back made it to the round of 16 with the United States in their home World Cup and even scored in their 3-2 group stage defeat by Turkey. Trusty, 27, was in the starting line-up for champions Celtic's 1-0 opening Scottish Premiership victory over Dundee on Monday - less than a month on from his final World Cup appearance.
Chris Cadden described his move to Aberdeen as the "perfect fit", admitting: "I was ready for a new challenge." The right-back arrived at Pittodrie on a two-year deal at the end of last month after five years at Hibernian and made his Dons debut in last weekend's Scottish Premiership win over Hearts. Cadden played 166 times for Hibs and was asked if it was a wrench to leave Easter Road.
Celtic assistant manager Shaun Maloney says there is "no timeline" for Martin O'Neill's return from the "small procedure" the boss underwent in hospital and the 74-year-old will "make the call" about whether he will be in the dugout for Sunday's trip to Kilmarnock.

Assistant manager Shaun Maloney has been speaking to the media as Celtic prepare for Sunday's trip to face Kilmarnock. After undergoing a "small procedure" in hospital earlier this week, Maloney says manager Martin O'Neill was "in good form" when he went to see him on Thursday. Maloney confirms the 74-year-old got out of hospital on Thursday and is "loads better" than he was earlier this week.
Kilmarnock's Greg Kiltie hopes the club's new pitch will change the narrative over their home form and the theory that their old artificial surface gave them a huge advantage. The artificial pitch at Rugby Park has been ripped up and replaced with a state of the art grass-hybrid pitch, which gets its first airing this Sunday with the visit of Celtic.
The power battle over Vanessa Gold’s shares and the David Sullivan Panorama allegations are overshadowing the start of the season in the ChampionshipThere have been 10 summers of West Ham’s London Stadium tenancy and a number of winters of discontent. As the Hammers kick off the new season on Saturday, a Carabao Cup first-round fixture with Portsmouth is a stark reminder of reduced circumstances, further confirmation of last season’s relegation from the Premier League. The summer has been as bleak as any of those winters, with a number of factors colliding to deepen the gloom of relegation.Certain clubs, including West Ham back in 2011-12 when promotion was achieved at first time of asking under Sam Allardyce, have used the Championship to take a beat, to refresh and replenish. Can this be the case at West Ham 2026? The Hammers are short-odds favourites for promotion but behind the scenes it has been a summer of turbulence, particularly in the boardroom, where a power struggle is being fought.

Kilmarnock manager Neil McCann has been speaking to the media before Sunday's Scottish Premiership visit of champions Celtic. McCann says it was "pretty clear where they went wrong" in last weekend's defeat by St Johnstone and he will "learn an awful lot" from that loss. The manager admits there were many aspects of their Perth performance that "wasn't at top level" but he believes his squad "has got a lot to offer".
