Ex-manager O’Neil in talks over Wolves return
- 241 Comments
Less than a year after being fired by the relegation-threatened Premier League club, Gary O’Neil has spoken with Wolves about a potential return to the club.
Following Vitor Pereira’s dismissal on Sunday morning, the Molineux side have begun the selection process for a new head coach.
O’Neil and Middlesbrough boss Rob Edwards were among the candidates to take Pereira’ place at the Midlands club, according to a report from BBC Sport on Sunday.
What data are gathered from this quiz?
Given that he is currently employed, Edwards’ appointment will present many challenges, with Middlesbrough believing that their manager would be entitled to a sizable salary if they resign.
O’Neil is now well-positioned to return, but sources have suggested that he is not the only candidate to challenge.
In Nuno Espirito Santo, Bruno Lage, and Pereira, Wolves have a history of appointing managers who have close ties to famous agent Jorge Mendes.
And it is believed that Wolves are speaking with at least one manager from Mendes’ stable in addition to O’Neil.
Following a disappointing start to the campaign from 1920 to 1920, Wolves fired O’Neil.

Scotland recall Shankland for World Cup qualifiers
- 106 Comments
Lawrence Shankland, the captain of Heart of Midlothian, has been called back to the Scotland squad for the crucial World Cup qualifiers against Greece and Denmark later this month.
The 30-year-old striker, who last played for Scotland in the Nations League victory over Poland 12 months ago, makes his return to Steve Clarke’s lineup along with Ross McCrorie and Josh Doig, a goalkeeper.
With Che Adams of Torino, Birmingham City’s Lyndon Dykes, and George Hirst of Ipswich Town as the other strikers in the squad, Kieron Bowie of Hibernian misses out to make room for Shankland’s return.
Claudio Braga and Shankland have a good working relationship going forward for Hearts, with their goal in Saturday’s 4-0 win over Dundee setting him at the top of the domestic scoring charts.
Aaron Hickey is only just recovering from the injury he sustained during the previous international window, so Bristol City’s McCrorie, who made his only appearance against Gibraltar last year, makes a second-round return.
Max Johnston of Derby County, who has a hamstring injury, will miss up to eight weeks while Nathan Patterson of Everton will need a hernia operation.
One of the six Serie A players named in the 25-man pool for Sassuolo’s Doig, who was a member of the group in September, will compete for the left-back spot with captains Kieran Tierney and Andy Robertson.
Due to injury, Falkirk’s Bain, 33, who won his final three San Marino caps in 2019, will start in goal as Angus Gunn, who has started all four of the qualifiers, is out.
Craig Gordon will likely take the place of Gunn, but Alexander Schwolow, who was signed for the Hearts this summer, has taken his place.
Clarke’s eight midfielders are the same as the players who contributed to the team’s tireless victories over Belarus and Greece in October.
Billy Gilmour replaces Scott McTominay in the squad alongside his club-mate after 38 minutes of Napoli’s 0-0 draw with Como over the weekend.
Scotland travel to Piraeus on November 15 to face Greece in the World Cup final before hosting group leaders Denmark at Hampden Park three days later.
After three victories and a draw, Clarke’s team are now second in Group C and have already qualified for at least one place in the March World Cup play-offs.
Scotland squad
Scott Bain (Falkirk), Craig Gordon (Heart of Midlothian), and Liam Kelly (Rangers) are the goalkeepers.
Josh Doig (Sassuolo), Grant Hanley (Hibernian), Jack Hendry (Al-Etiffaq), Aaron Hickey (Brentford), Ross McCrorie (Bristol City), Scott McKenna (Dinamo Zagreb), Andy Robertson (Liverpool), John Souttar (Rangers), and Kieran Tierney (Celtic) are the defenders.
Ryan Christie (Bournemouth), Lewis Ferguson (Bologna), Ben Gannon-Doak (Bournemouth), Billy Gilmour (Aston Villa), Kenny McLean (Norwich City), Scott McTominay (Napoli), Lennon Miller (Udinese),

[VIDEO] ANALYSIS: Will US Carry Out Military Action In Nigeria?
Babajide Ogunsanwo, the founder and chief data analyst for CNNN and the founder of Leadership by Data, has provided insight into the growing diplomatic rift between Nigeria and the United States in response to President Donald Trump’s threats to use force against Christians who claim to have committed genocide.
Ogunsanwo noted that the US position is based on “evidence” that the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom, which has been monitoring Nigeria for a long time, reportedly collected.
He explained that Nigeria’s inclusion on the US list of “countries of particular concern” is consistent with what happened in 2020 under Trump and was later overturned by President Joe Biden.
Read more about how ground operations and air strikes could be US targets in Nigeria.
Ogunsanwo claims that Nigeria’s lessening of Washington’s “perception of value” has also loosened its influence in diplomatic negotiations.
The data analyst added that declining American investments between 2020 and 2024 suggest a cooling trend, revealing Washington’s “less interested” attitude.
Ogunsanwo believes a military operation is still unavoidable, noting that while Trump’s statement received more than 10 million views, US government officials have not yet confirmed any imminent action.
He advised the Nigerian government to provide verifiable information on terrorism and religious freedom in response to the US’s claims.
Trump threatened military action against Nigeria over the weekend for the killings of Christians. He previously directed the Pentagon to create a possible attack plan when he spoke on Sunday while speaking on Air Force One and said he was considering “a lot of things.”
Trump had earlier stated that if the violence continued, there would be “an existential threat” to Christianity in Nigeria and that U.S. action would be “fast, vicious, and sweet.”
Presidential spokesman Daniel Bwala, who reacted, said Nigeria still supports the United States in the fight against terrorism worldwide but that any support must respect its sovereignty.
Lewis Cope’s girlfriend reacts to Katya Jones dance as they top Strictly leaderboard
Lewis Cope scored the first 40 of the series in this year’s Strictly Come Dancing with a Couple’s Choice to Creep by Radiohead, and has been partnered with Katya Jones
Lewis Cope’s girlfriend has shared what she thought of the Emmerdale star’s perfect score dance and his Strictly Come Dancing partner Katya Jones.
Rachel Maya Lopez took to Instagram to gush about her “unbelievably talented” boyfriend’s dancing after the results show aired on Sunday (2 November).
She shared a video of Lewis and Katya after the show, talking about their perfect 40 score. This was the first 40 of the series and Lewis can be seen saying that he earned 20 and Katya earned 20. “Together, we’re 40,” Katya beamed.
Over the top of the clip, Rachel wrote: “These two absolutely UNBELIEVABLY TALENTED HUMANS are through to next week”. She also reposted a clip of the show where she can be seen screaming from the audience and captioned that with: “Sound off because I was very emotional and sounded like a whale moaning in pleasure.”

Later sharing a pic of the dance to her stories, in which Lewis can be seen atop a piano that Katya is pretending to play, Rachel added: “I will never get over how unbelievable these two are. HISTORY WAS MADEEEEE on Saturday night.”
She then shared a clip of the dance itself and said it was “amazing” and implied the dance brought a tear to her eye. “I’m not crying you are. Ommmgggggg this is amazing.”
Rachel rounded off her series of posts with a sweet tribute to Ellie Goldstein, who is the latest celebrity to be eliminated from the show. “It was an absolute honour getting to meet this beautiful Earth angel on strictly,” Rachel posted. “Every single week there was nothing but pure joy filling that dance floor when @elliejg16_zebedeemodel stepped out onto that strictly stage.
“The whole room would vibrate. Ellie you are the most beautiful human being with the most beautiful family. Thank you for being you.” Ellie was eliminated during Sunday’s results show after being in the dance off against Balvinder Sopal.
Lewis and Rachel have been in a relationship for seven years. In a chat with The Sun, Lewis explained how Rachel is used to seeing him kiss other people and the Strictly curse has never been a conversation between them.
“Over the years I’ve had to kiss a lot of people on stage or onscreen, as an actor, so she’s used to me kissing boys actually, but it hasn’t been a problem. Katya and Rachel have all met, it’s [the Strictly curse] never been a conversation between us.”
The Strictly curse is the common name used when a Strictly pro and their celeb dance partner become romantically involved, leading to the break up of one or both of their previous relationships.
Katya has been at the centre of some Strictly curse drama before, as she was snapped kissing her celeb partner Seann Walsh on a night out, whilst he was in a relationship.
This year, some fans have been pushing curse rumours about fellow Strictly couple, Amber Davies and Nikita Kuzmin. Nikita’s girlfriend, Lauren, even took to TikTok to hit back at fans and encourage them to be “respectful” of the partners of dancers who just want to enjoy the show.
In the caption of the video, where she frowned at the camera whilst the words over the top said “comments saying ‘I hope they get the strictly curse'”, she wrote: “Please be respectful to the real-life partners and let them have a good experience of the show too.”
