It’s pretty rare to get something for nothing, but that’s exactly what one Internet Service Provider (ISP) is offering right now.

Those joining the broadband firm can currently get full access to the web and not pay a penny for the first six months.This eye-catching deal is available on three plans, including fast 100Mbps, rapid 300Mbps and ultra-fast 1Gbps downloads.

Another source stated that the squad felt the display was “much better” than how United performed in most Old Trafford matches last season. The sentiment was echoed by Premier League icon Shearer, who has not shied away from criticising both United and Ruben Amorim in the past.Speaking on the Rest is Football podcast with Gary Lineker and Miach Richards, the Newcastle legend said: “I think for me the two standouts [were Cunha and Mbeumo].”Cunha was very good and Mbeumo was excellent. They brought a bit of unpredictability, they brought a bit of a spark and a bit of life to…

NATO was forced to scramble warplanes overnight as Vladimir Putin launched brutal missile and drone strikes, which left the smoke-choked Ukrainian city Kremenchuk looking like a scene from Armageddon.

But there were immediate doubts on Putin’s sincerity both from his overnight use of…

Donald Trump has “become a politician”, shifting from instinctive deal-maker to calculating candidate as he pushes for a Ukraine peace settlement, a former US admiral said after the Washington summit with Volodymyr Zelensky. Admiral Mike Hewitt, co-chair of the Ukraine Reconstruction Summit, said the US president now understood that “a ceasefire isn’t a deal” and was framing his stance with one eye on the midterms.“He can’t explain to the American people why Ukraine matters, so he focuses on peace. But he now realises a ceasefire isn’t a deal – he may actually be able to get to one.” He pointed…

This included Saturday’s curtain-raiser against Aston Villa, which could result in disciplinary measures.”Two things should happen here. First, he should put in a transfer request,” said Winter, discussing the situation on talkSPORT.”I know [he wouldn’t do that] but why does he deserve a loyalty bonus or any financial recompense from Newcastle United when he’s halfway through his contract? Absolutely shouldn’t do.”Liverpool have also contributed to the saga. At the start of August they lodged a £110million proposal to their competitors, who promptly turned it down.They have not come back with a fresh approach since then and will not do so…
