It is a sad reflection of modern football that the man who cares most about Manchester United, who will loyally, diligently again go into Carrington today to try and tackle the mess, is the one being eased out by those gathering in Monaco and via a link to Florida who don’t truly have United in their heart. Those who are primarily responsible for the mess. Michael Carrick will leave the club sooner or later but the club will never leave him. United mean too much to him. He gave everything for the team in 464 games. His son plays for their academy. Being United head coach is not simply a job for Carrick, it's an honour he feels deeply proud of. The manager who last season masterminded home wins over Manchester City, Aston Villa and Liverpool and away triumphs at Arsenal, Chelsea and Brighton has undoubtedly made mistakes this season. Diogo Dalot at left-back, not bringing Shea Lacey on earlier, etc. The poor run, and tumble into the relegation positions, inevitably means his job is on the line. It is possible to understand why Carrick should lose his job but also why others should be held accountable, too. The decision on Carrick would be more palatable if it weren’t being formulated and then executed by Omar Berrada, Jason Wilcox, Sir Jim Ratcliffe and the loathed Glazers. What good have they done to this great club? Debts and decline, holes in the roof and in the squad. Carrick’s contribution to the history of Manchester United is substantial and his legacy secure – winning five titles and taking responsibility for a penalty in the 2008 shootout that helped win the Champions League. At the very least, Carrick deserves to be treated with far more respect than is currently being shown to a dignified, hard-working individual as the clock ticks down on his departure. His exit is being handled appallingly by the club. Red man walking. At least United fans are showing all the class their board lacks. The Stretford End sings Carrick’s name because they know he is not the real problem. It will be no surprise in weeks to come to spot Carrick standing, hood up, with United fans at an away game. They will welcome him warmly. He’s done it before, being a fan again. Carrick loves the club. He has ever since he was an apprentice at West Ham United, charged with keeping the away dressing-room tidy, and admiring how Alex Ferguson and his smartly-dressed collection of winners strode into the Boleyn Ground. They had an aura, and Carrick wanted to be part of that. Carrick will leave the club physically, dismissed as much for the failings of underperforming players, those incompetents in charge of recruitment and the unpopular owners, as for his own undoubted mistakes. But Carrick will never leave United emotionally. It's sad that someone who cares so much will go, and those who don't care as much remain. #MUFC

The most chilling video of the day. Moment of train detainment caught on camera. 6 coaches of Train 13125 #Kolkata - Sairang Express derailed at Digaru in #Assam. The locopilot is heard saying “nothing is working…signal is red but SA 9 A9 are not working”. They are key brake valves. The #IndianRailway first statement says the locopilot couldn’t control the speed. Glad the man recorded the video.

Being cheated on hurts, but being manipulated into thinking you were overthinking everything hurts even more. They made me question my instincts while they were the reason I had to question them in the first place. That kind of betrayal changes you.

As an adult, you’ll learn that losing the person you thought you’d marry is sometimes the plot twist that SAVES your life.

If this doesn’t make you want to have children and start a family, nothing will.

🔥 This was the atmosphere today at the New Firm Copenhagen derby. These are the Brøndby fans in the away end ahead of their match against FC København. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 In England, we can't take bottle tops into the ground. 🇩🇰 In Denmark, they do this.

🚨 Tenerife have pledged to support Carla, daughter of the late striker Jesús de Miguel, financially until she turns 18 following his tragic death. 🙏🇪🇸 She's only 1 year and 4 months old. Proper class from the club, and exactly what you'd hope a club would do for one of its own.

A customer’s CCTV footage has gone viral after capturing an Instamart delivery executive accidentally stepping on the rangoli outside their home. Instead of walking away, he stopped, crouched down and carefully tried to repair it, one line at a time. What could have been a routine drop-off turned into a moment people can’t stop watching. The clip is winning hearts online for his thoughtfulness and consideration, and it’s a reminder that kindness often shows up in the smallest, most ordinary moments. #Instamart #Swiggy #Diwali2026 #ViralVideo #HeartwarmingMoments

For 20 years, my husband has never got a holiday on #Deepavali from his hospital job. Every single Diwali, he has been serving patients and coming back next day. Do you even realise there are people who work there? There are in-patients and relatives who feel depressed. What is the problem with a little bit of light?
Happy Diwali from Patna. BTW, what is the logic behind lighting hospitals on Diwali?

To those who celebrate. To those who don't. To those who are alone. To those who wish they were. To those who are working. To those who want to. I pray this Diwali brings a new dawn in your lives and mine ♥️
