Pl predictions week 10 We’re set for another entertaining weekend of football action after plenty of drama, upsets and the third managerial sacking of the season last weekend.

Champions Chelsea face struggling...

The fall was caught by the Sky Sports cameras and soon became viral on social media. While some may be embarrassed, Lee finds the clip hilarious. Lee...

Our 73 point haul outstripped the week’s average of 50 and propelled us forward some 600,000 positions. It was quite the week. Captain Kane led the way with 32 points, ably supported...

Jayne Mattey, 57, and Claire Shine recorded holes-in-one on the very same hole during a match in Berkshire on Saturday (Oct 21). The incredible feat happened on the 13th hole at the East Berkshire Golf Club during a fourball matchplay competition. And while 13 may be unlucky for some, it was anything but for the talented duo. Ms Mattey, a freelance career coach,...
