April 19, 2025 RAYMOND 0

Sunderland manager Régis Le Bris reflected on a frustrating afternoon at Ashton Gate, where his side played almost the entire match with ten men following Trai Hume’s early dismissal. Though he felt the red card was harsh, Le Bris praised his team’s resilience, especially in the first half, where they managed to take the lead through a brilliant solo effort from Eliezer Mayenda. Despite the eventual 2-1 loss to Bristol City, he remained positive, calling the experience a valuable lesson ahead of the play-offs. “It was really positive to live this experience,” he said. “If this challenge happens again, we’ll have this as a reference.”

Eliezer Mayenda’s stunning solo goal against Bristol City may not have salvaged a result for Sunderland, but it certainly turned heads. For teammate Luke O’Nien, it wasn’t just a highlight—it was perhaps the best goal he’s ever seen live. Yet within the dressing room, the reaction was calm, almost expected. “We’ve seen him do that in training,” O’Nien remarked, praising the young forward’s sharpness and composure. “He’s the only player where, when he gets the ball 70 yards from goal, you think, ‘He’s going to score.’”

Port Adelaide’s dominant performance against Hawthorn was a stunning reminder of their potential. Marketed as a grudge match, it quickly turned into a one-sided affair, with Port Adelaide attacking relentlessly from the outset. By the second quarter, they led by a staggering 71 points, and it seemed all but over. Hawthorn, struggling to keep up, found a moment of hope in the final term as they mounted a brief, almost historic comeback. However, a taunting moment from Willie Rioli, followed by a free kick, quickly extinguished any hopes of a turnaround, as Port Adelaide secured a commanding 18.13 (121) to 14.7 (91) win.

This victory came at a crucial time, after a rocky start to the season that had many questioning the future of the Ken Hinkley era. But on Sunday night, Port Adelaide showed what they’re capable of when their midfield is fully charged and their emotional energy is harnessed. The performance of captain Connor Rozee, who found his confidence after a tactical switch to half-back, was a standout, alongside Jason Horne-Francis and Zak Butters, who both played with intensity and flair.

The match also served as a reminder of the power of momentum in the AFL. When Port Adelaide are firing on all cylinders, they are a force to be reckoned with, feeding off the energy of their crowd and playing with a sense of urgency that makes them unstoppable.

Exclusive Revelation: David Prutton Drops Bombshell on Nathan Lowe’s Uncertain Stoke City Future!

April 17, 2025 RAYMOND 0

David Prutton, Sky Sports pundit and former Premier League midfielder, has shared his thoughts on Nathan Lowe’s future at Stoke City following his underwhelming return from a successful loan spell at Walsall. Lowe had been one of the standout performers in League Two, scoring 18 goals and providing seven assists in 30 appearances for Walsall. His impressive form prompted Stoke to recall him in January, but he has struggled to replicate that success in the Championship.

Despite a dream return with a goal against West Brom, Lowe has made only eight appearances since, with his recent involvement limited. Prutton suggests that Stoke may consider selling the 19-year-old if the right offer comes in but also believes that Lowe has the potential to thrive under manager Mark Robins. However, given Stoke’s position and Lowe’s age, a loan move to a League One club could be a possibility for next season, though he might still be given a chance to prove himself in the Championship.

Exclusive Twist: Sheffield Wednesday Secure Shock Double Signing for 2025/26 – Fans Won’t Believe Who’s In!

April 17, 2025 RAYMOND 0

Sheffield Wednesday have exercised options in the contracts of Jarvis Thornton and Reece Johnson, ensuring both will remain with the club for the 2025/26 season. Thornton, who has captained the Owls’ U21 side this year, and Johnson, a regular presence at full-back, have become key players under Andy Holdsworth. Their extensions signal the club’s commitment to building around their talent as they prepare for a new era within the U21s.

With several players, including Joey Phuthi, Sam Reed, and Jay Buchan, set to leave once their contracts expire, the club is poised for a fresh look in the upcoming campaign. Younger talents like Ernie Weaver are expected to step up from the U18s, while trialists are being considered to fill remaining gaps. Despite the changes, Thornton and Johnson are determined to make their mark, with plenty of potential still ahead of them.

April 17, 2025 RAYMOND 0

The New York Giants have officially moved on from the Daniel Jones era, setting the stage for a new quarterback to lead the franchise. While Shedeur Sanders, Colorado’s standout quarterback, is a strong candidate, the Giants are carefully weighing their options, with prospects like Travis Hunter and Abdul Carter also in the mix. The team has done extensive scouting on Sanders, attending his games, observing practices, and meeting with him multiple times. Former Giants head coach Pat Shurmur, now Colorado’s offensive coordinator, has been vocal in his praise, drawing a bold comparison between Sanders and Jones. Despite Jones’ struggles in the NFL, Shurmur highlighted the similarities in character, accuracy, and leadership, expressing full confidence in Sanders’ NFL potential.

Sunderland boss Régis Le Bris is set to give captain Dan Neil a well-earned break over the Easter weekend, marking a rare pause in the midfielder’s relentless run of appearances this season. Despite already securing a play-off spot, Neil has remained ever-present in the starting line-up, but that’s expected to change as Le Bris looks to rotate his squad and preserve key players for the upcoming semi-finals. With two games in just four days, the head coach emphasized the importance of managing minutes — not just for Neil, but also for other mainstays like Trai Hume, even as limited defensive options pose a challenge.

April 16, 2025 RAYMOND 0

NFL.com’s Adam Rank turned heads this week with a bold and unexpected prediction for the New York Giants. In his lone mock draft — which he doesn’t revise — Rank bypasses the usual suspects like Abdul Carter, Travis Hunter, or even a quarterback. Instead, he urges the Giants to take a swing at Boise State’s Ashton Jeanty, the top running back in the draft.

Rank explained on Mock Draft Live that this pick would be a symbolic move — a way to help Giants fans move on from Saquon Barkley’s departure to the rival Eagles. “You need a game-changer who will help the fans forget Saquon just won a Super Bowl with Philly,” Rank said. “Take Ashton now and let your fan base love again.”

Hull City on the Brink: 20th Place, 45 Points—Can They Hold On, or Will the Drop Loom?

April 16, 2025 RAYMOND 0

With only two games left against Derby County and Portsmouth, Hull City seems poised to secure their Championship status for next season—assuming they can win both matches. However, the road to survival is never simple, and many Tigers fans are eager for the team to seal their fate before the final weeks of the season.

Hull’s next challenge comes over the Easter weekend, with a trip to Swansea, who still have outside hopes of reaching the top six, followed by a home match against Preston North End, a side that has struggled on the road. While Hull has often shown the quality needed to avoid relegation, recent form—just one win in their last five—has raised some concerns.

Despite this, Hull’s solid defensive record and superior goal difference give them a crucial advantage over the teams around them, making it likely they’ll gather enough points to stay clear of danger before the season’s end.
