The moment loaded gun is found stashed in children’s bedroom drawers | UK News This is the shocking moment a loaded gun was found hidden inside a children’s underwear drawer. It was one of six firearms – including a pump action sawn off shotgun – recovered during a raid on the home of Danny Butler, 44, in Lambeth, south London. Officers also found class A and B drugs stashed all over the address, which he shared with his wife and three children, including an 18-month-old toddler. The seizure came amid a wider crackdown on the use of guns in London, with…

Thousands of England fans have flocked to pubs in Gelsenkirchen as they gear up for the Three Lions opening match of Euro 2024 tomorrow night. A record 350,000 supporters are expected to travel to Germany to cheer on Gareth Southgate, Harry Kane and the boys – with 40,000 set to make the trip in time for kick-off on Sunday night. Travelling fans have been arriving in their droves by plane, bus and ferry and packed out pubs in the western city’s old town, waving St George’s flags and chanting ‘please don’t take me home’. The same scenes were replicated in…

Gary Neville hit back at Roy Keane and Ian Wright for smirking at the starting XI he feels Gareth Southgate should pick for England’s opening Euro 2024 match against Serbia. The Three Lions begin their European Championship campaign in Gelsenkirchen on Sunday and will start their Group C clash as the overwhelming favourites. Southgate’s squad is jam packed full of exciting attacking talent but crowbarring the likes of Jude Bellingham, Phil Foden and Bukayo Saka into the same side and maintaining the required balance appears no easy feat. Cole Palmer, Eberechi Eze, not to mention strikers Ollie Watkins and Ivan…

England fans represent a ‘challenge’ for hooligans from other nations out to claim a scalp at Euro 2024, a football policing expert has said. Gareth Southgate’s Three Lions play Serbia in their opener today, with their opponent’s followers including Red Star Belgrade’s notorious ultras. A policing expert assessing the threat drew on the spectre of Marseille at Euro 2016, when groups of Russian hooligans laid into England fans. Dr Mike Hope said that while England had largely shed its hooligan image the fans still present a ‘trophy’ for violent groups from other nations. He also told Metro.co.uk that an Anglo-German…

As per usual, the BBC and ITV are showing every game from the tournament live over the next month, with the former getting things underway for the Three Lions in Gelsenkirchen. This will be a relief for fans as over the years it has been noted that the national team perform way better when on the Beeb as opposed to their advert-heavy rivals, with some even claiming that ITV’s coverage is cursed. But is there any logic behind this? Metro has crunched the numbers and worked out that Gareth Southgate’s side should indeed avoid Laura Woods and Mark Pougatch at…

England kick off their Euro 2024 campaign against Serbia this evening and assistant manager Steve Holland will once again be in the dugout alongside Gareth Southgate as the pair attempt to guide the Three Lions to glory in Germany. Southgate and Holland will be putting the finishing touches to his side’s preparations knowing they have a fully fit squad to choose from in Gelsenkirchen, which will come as a great relief to England supporters. Holland has been Southgate’s assistant throughout his reign as England boss, which started when he took over as caretaker back in September 2016. That has seen…

If England are to progress to the latter stages of Euro 2024, the chances are you’ll likely be seeing as much of Laura Woods on your TV as any of the Three Lions stars hoping to make history in Germany over the course of the next month. An almost omnipresent figure on our airwaves and screens over the last few years, Woods, like Harry Kane for Gareth Southgate, would have been one of the first names on ITV’s team sheet when assembling the squad that will cover close to 50 games this summer. Not that she sees it like that.…

When UEFA first announced its revamped plans for the future of the Champions League, including an extra place each for the nations whose teams perform best in European competition across the course of every season, it seemed inevitable that even more power would be bestowed upon the continent’s wealthiest division. The top end Premier League clubs, of course, possess deep squads with alternative options in every single position, hire the most sought-after coaches, and spend eyewatering amounts of money every summer which far outstrip the outlay of their rivals in Spain, Italy, Germany, and beyond. Surely they would always perform…
