Football: The Sweeper - Just Imagine...
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference....what Nicolas Anelka's first words to his new manager John Toshack might have been.
n "Bonjour, John, have you met my brothers?"
n "Are you absolutely sure you can't stretch to pounds 70,000 a week?"
n "I also wanted to play for Swansea."
n "I'm told the Spanish press are kind to footballers. When shall I tell them I hate Madrid?"
For next week, The Sweeper invites you to imagine what a Premiership manager should say when asked by the authorities why he's kept pounds 40,000 from a Russian agent in a safe for a year. Addresses as above.
