There are 4 countries in this year's World Cup that share their name with a track by @weddingpresent.
But tonight's match between England & Panama is the only time any of those 4 will play each other.

The end of the season is approaching and as I look back to last year, when I suffered my second ACL injury, I'm so pleased to be back fully fit and playing netball again☺️ I was interviewed earlier in the season about my recovery❤️🩹 backinactionmag.co.uk/2026/0…
I'm sure that there's a joke about Paddy and Shaun walking into a pub...
Lá Fhéile Pádraig sona daoibh!
It's the International Day of Women and Girls in Science. We're celebrating RD, who is a Graduate Future Payload Engineer for Airbus, our very own "rocket scientist". #WomenInScience

And he’d managed to get hold of a Dukla Prague away kit
‘Cos his uncle owned a sports shop and he’d kept it to one side
And after only five minutes you’d be down to ten men
‘Cos he’d sent off your right back for taking the base from under his left winger

3⃣4⃣ In December, Mike Fondop put the number up on his fridge to remind him how many years it's been since Oldham won promotion.
🛑Stop what you're doing and watch what winning the playoff final would mean to him and how he gets what it means for the fans 👇

WEAR THE BADGE WITH PRIDE🦉
Instead of a fixed colour, we're calling on everyone to wear the Latics badge on Sunday
Retro or new, tangerine, white or blue, wear your top with pride. Let everywhere you look on the way, at the pub, or at Wembley, you see only Oldham!

Dear @SadiqKhan @TheVanaramaNL @TfL
Oldham play Southend on June 1st at Wembley for a place back in the Football League. Both clubs have huge numbers who want to attend and support their team, just like Palace, City, Forest, Villa and Liverpool fans have this season without issue.
Because of engineering works the suggestion is a restriction on numbers as Wembley Park station will be closed. This is neither the fault of either club and the proposed cap on supporters, many of whom will be visiting Wembley for the first and maybe last time are being unfairly punished.
The record for a NL playoff final is 47,000. It's safe to say that without restrictions this record would be broken, but any cap would not only be unfair to supporters who don't often get the opportunity for a Wembley day out but would probably not be implemented would this be a Premier League or England national team game.
Clubs in the pyramid need every opportunity they can get to shine, compete and grow their supporter base and Wembley is always an opportunity to do so, along with stimulating support in the communities of Oldham and Southend respectively. Mr Mayor, as we have followed each other for some time on here, I'd be more than happy to set out a thousand reasons why it is important for both clubs to be fully represented at Wembley, and should only be afforded the same privilege as any club, namely to "fill the damn place".
National League and EFL clubs are hamstrung enough in this day and age where the top of the pyramid rules, I hope between you you could find a sensible solution to allow Oldham Athletic and Southend United supporters their day too.
Stan Collymore.
