Gareth Southgate doesn't want to get drawn into competitive virtue signalling at the World Cup. The England manager's side was one of seven clubs to back down on having their captains wear OneLove armbands during their opening games this week after FIFA threatened sporting sanctions, and though the 52-year-old coach is keen to share support for the LGBTQ+ community at the tournament in Qatar - where homosexuality is illegal - he doesn't want to risk overshadowing the focus on the game. He said: “I noticed the Danish coach speaking after their game and he felt he hadn’t got enough bandwidth to ...

England players could be kept awake by camels outside their World Cup base. The Three Lions will be staying at the Souq Al Wakra Hotel for the tournament in Qatar but their plans for rest and relaxation could be spoilt by a pair of moaning, groaning and bellowing camels. The humped animals live in a fenced-off pen on the beach just yards from lodges that will be occupied by the FA's 95-strong delegation of players, coaches and support staff. The camels' groans interrupted one frustrated cameraman's attempts to film the hotel and forced seven re-shoots. A local cafe owner told the Daily Star ne...

The gesture was proposed by FA bosses to register concern about gay rights in a nation where homosexuality can still carry the death penalty. A source told The Sun newspaper: "It's no coincidence this particular plane was chosen. "It perfectly illustrate...
