Ruud van Nistelrooy admits he was “hurt” at having to leave Manchester United last month. Van Nistelrooy returned to Old Trafford as Erik ten Hag’s assistant in the summer and had a four-game interim spell in charge following his compatriot’s sacking in October. He left the club in the wake of Ruben Amorim’s appointment but was only out of work for two weeks after being appointed Leicester’s new manager on a deal until 2027. The 48-year-old had a glittering playing career with United and was disappointed his return had to end so soon. “The moment I took over the interim job what I said was I’m here to help United and to stay to help United, and I meant it,” he said. “So I was disappointed, yeah, very much so, and it hurt I had to leave. “The only job I would take as an assistant was at United because of the bond that I have with the people in the club and the fans. “But in the end I got my head around it because I also understand the new manager. I’m in football long enough, and I’ve managed myself, that you can think of a situation, me being there, I understand. “I spoke to Ruben about it, fair enough to him, the conversation was grateful, man to man, person to person, manager to manager, and that helped a lot to move on and straightaway get into talks with new possibilities which of course lifted my spirits.” The Dutchman takes on a difficult job at the King Power Stadium as he is tasked with keeping Leicester in the Premier League. He inherits an influential dressing room, which has seen a number of managers come and go over the last few years. Van Nistelrooy revealed he has done his due diligence and also let the players know as well. “It’s the only way you can work. It’s mutual respect. I also mentioned to the players yesterday that I looked at the squad and started to make phone calls about players, because in football everyone knows everyone,” he said. “With two or three phone calls you hear stories about 20 players and for me it was important that you hear there are good characters there. That’s important, that there are good people there. “I look at the players how they play. I obviously don’t know them but I got general information and the individuals that they are a good bunch of people. That was important for me to get in.”Teen Mom's Kailyn Lowry Undergoes Breast Reduction Surgery
Arts quango that funded porn film handed extra £28million of YOUR money in SNP Budget Creative Scotland will be subject to a review after a series of controversies They include funding a sex film and 'censoring' gender-critical feminists Click here to visit the Scotland home page for the latest news and sport By GEORGIA EDKINS SCOTTISH POLITICAL EDITOR FOR THE MAIL ON SUNDAY Published: 18:42 GMT, 7 December 2024 | Updated: 18:48 GMT, 7 December 2024 e-mail View comments Scotland's beleaguered arts quango has landed a windfall from the SNP ’s disastrous Budget – despite facing criticism for funding a pornographic sex show. Creative Scotland received a £28 million public cash boost on Wednesday, even though it is understood to be facing the axe. The arts body will be at the centre of a government review after it was found to have funded a porn film. It is also alleged to have censored gender-critical feminists. Artists have lined up to condemn Creative Scotland as ‘secretive’ and ‘ideologically driven’, while Harry Potter author JK Rowling said it was rife with ‘illiberalism and cronyism’. Finance Secretary Shona Robison appeared to disregard such concerns as she delivered her Budget last week. Official documents show it will receive £80 million next year, compared to £51.4 million this year. Last night a writer who was targeted by a member of Creative Scotland’s staff over her gender- critical views hit out at the move. Harry Potter author JK Rowling slammed the ‘illiberalism and cronyism' at Creative Scotland Jenny Lindsay, author of Hounded: Women, Harms and the Gender Wars, said: ‘I welcome the funding boost to the sector. ‘But without significant reform and engagement with those of us who have been highlighting our concerns about the climate of fear and self-censorship around certain issues, this will be a lost opportunity. 'What is actually happening with the proposed review?’ Scottish Tory culture spokesman Murdo Fraser said: ‘Given the controversy surrounding funding Creative Scotland, SNP Ministers must ensure they deliver value for money for the taxpayer. ‘It is just common sense that taxpayer funds shouldn’t have been squandered on a porn film at a time when the SNP’s financial incompetence has left Scotland’s finances in a shocking state.’ In September, Culture Secretary Angus Robertson announced a review of Creative Scotland to ‘ensure its operations are optimal to the needs of the culture sector’. This came in the wake of Mail on Sunday investigations which uncovered concerns over alleged mismanagement at the quango. We disclosed how an employee tasked with helping authors tried to prevent at least one bookshop from stocking Ms Lindsay’s book as she deemed it transphobic. Another incident involved arts worker Rosie Aspinall Priest, who is the partner of a Creative Scotland official who helps make decisions on grants for projects. Poet Jenny Lindsay has called for reform of the arts quango after she was targeted for her views Scottish Conservative Murdo Fraser has demanded the body deliver value for the taxpayer She accused David Greig – the artistic director of Edinburgh’s Royal Lyceum Theatre – of voicing support for allegedly transphobic views on social media posts, while he was awaiting the outcome of a funding application. Click here to visit the Scotland home page for the latest news and sport Advertisement Earlier this year, Creative Scotland handed £84,000 of public money to a sex show. After an outcry over the decision, bosses claimed there had been confusion over ‘terminology’ used in the funding process. They said the application by the film’s director Leonie Rae Gasson did not make clear live sex acts would be featured – despite the mention of ‘genital contact’ – but agreed to withdraw the funding. Mr Robertson last week said the review into the quango will begin early next year and will aim to publish its recommendations in the summer. A government source previously said: ‘This will not be a review to fix Creative Scotland – Creative Scotland is over.’ Creative Scotland last night welcomed the funding boost. A Scottish Government spokesman said: ‘It is routine for public bodies to undergo reviews and while that process is ongoing we expect their work to continue.’ SNP Share or comment on this article: Arts quango that funded porn film handed extra £28million of YOUR money in SNP Budget e-mail Add comment

Forgotten Premier League winner unveils Paddy Pimblett as 'new training partner'
Drivers and airline passengers without reindeer and sleighs better make a dash for it: it's beginning to look like another record for holiday travel in the U.S. The auto club AAA predicts that more than 119 million people will travel at least 50 miles from home between Saturday and New Year’s Day, which would top the previous holiday-season high set in 2019. The two weekends on either side of Christmas look to be some of the most crowded times on the road and at airports. Recommended Videos Trade group Airlines for America also foresees record travel, saying it expected U.S. airlines to carry 54 million passengers during a 19-day period that started Thursday and ends Monday, Jan. 6. The number would represent a 6% increase over last year. A government shutdown that could start as soon as Saturday would likely be too close to the holidays to immediately affect flights and airport operations, but that might change if a shutdown dragged on. What will be the busiest travel days? Airlines expect to have their busiest days on Friday and Sunday, and on Dec. 26, Dec. 27 and Dec. 29. Flight traffic is expected to be light on both Christmas Day and New Year's Day. The slowest U.S. air-travel day this year — by a wide margin — was Thanksgiving Day. The Transportation Security Administration expects to screen 40 million passengers over the holidays and through January 2. About 90% of Americans traveling far from home over the holidays will be in cars, according to AAA. “Airline travel is just really high right now, but most people do drive to their destinations, and that is true for every holiday,” AAA spokesperson Aixa Diaz said. Gasoline prices are similar to last year. The nationwide average Thursday was $3.05 a gallon, down from $3.08 a year ago, according to AAA. Charging an electric vehicle averages just under 35 cents per per kilowatt hour, but varies by state. Transportation-data firm INRIX says travel times on the nation’s highways could be up to 30% longer than normal over the holidays, with Sunday expected to see the heaviest traffic. Boston, New York City, Seattle and Washington, D.C., are the metropolitan areas primed for the greatest delays, according to the company. Weather and other wildcards Because the holiday travel period lasts weeks, airports and airlines typically have smaller peak days than they do during the rush around Thanksgiving, but the grind of one hectic day followed by another takes a toll on flight crews. And any hiccups — a winter storm or a computer outage — can snowball into massive disruptions. That is how Southwest Airlines stranded 2 million travelers in December 2022, and Delta Air Lines suffered a smaller but significant meltdown after a worldwide technology outage in July caused by a faulty software update from cybersecurity company CrowdStrike. Many flights during the holidays are sold out, which makes cancellations even more disruptive than during slower periods. That is especially true for smaller budget airlines that have fewer flights and fewer options for rebooking passengers. Only the largest airlines, including American, Delta and United, have “interline agreements” that let them put stranded customers on another carrier's flights. This will be the first holiday season since a Transportation Department rule took effect that requires airlines to give customers an automatic cash refund for a canceled or significantly delayed flight. Most air travelers were already eligible for refunds, but they often had to request them. Passengers still can ask to get rebooked, which is often a better option than a refund during peak travel periods. That's because finding a last-minute flight on another airline yourself tends to be very expensive. “When they rebook you, they will pay for the fare difference. If my flight to visit grandma that I booked six months ago for $200 gets canceled, and I turn around and book a flight four hours from now for $400, I have to pay that difference,” said Sally French, a travel expert at consumer-affairs company Nerdwallet. People traveling on budget airlines with fewer flights and no partnerships with other carriers may face a difficult choice in the event of a canceled flight . “They will put you on the next outgoing Spirit or Frontier flight, but that could be a while from now. Sometimes waiting three days for that next flight is not going to work for you," and paying more to rebook on a big airline might be worthwhile, French said. Some airlines are taking advantage of a provision in the new Transportation Department rule that defined a significant delay as three hours for a domestic flight and six hours for an international flight. According to Brett Snyder, who runs the Cranky Flyer website, airlines that previously issued refunds for shorter delays — Delta, United and JetBlue, for example — are now using the government standard. Delayed flights increase the risk that bags will get lost. Passengers who get separated from their bags should report it to the airline and ask what the airline will cover. Links to the customer-service plans of major U.S. airlines are at the bottom of this page . Would a government shutdown affect flights and airports? A government shutdown could occur if Congress doesn’t pass a funding bill with a midnight Friday deadline . Most TSA workers at airports, air traffic controllers and customs agents are considered essential and would be required to work without pay in the event of a shutdown. More uncompensated workers might call out sick the longer a shutdown lasts, which could lead to longer security lines and other delays. That appeared to be the case several weeks into a government shutdown that started in December 2019. "While our personnel have prepared to handle high volumes of travelers and ensure safe travel, an extended shutdown could mean longer wait times at airports,” TSA spokesman Carter Langston said in a statement. AAA advises travelers to “continue with their holiday plans, even if the shutdown materializes,” spokesperson Diaz said. “Airport operations will continue as normal, but perhaps run a bit slower than usual, so travelers should be aware of that.” Planning ahead for 2025 Airline fares were up 4.7% in November, compared with a year earlier, according to U.S. government figures. But early 2025 is a good time to start planning next year's trips, including for spring breaks and summer vacations. “Because travel is so popular, you're not going to find anything that feels very rock-bottom, but January and February are great times to plan for March, April and May,” Laura Motta, an editor at travel-guide publisher Lonely Planet, said. “If you want to go to Paris in the spring, you need to be thinking about that in January." ___ AP Reporters Mae Anderson in Nashville, Tennessee, and Mike Pesoli in Washington, D.C., contributed to this report.Forward-looking: The 8K Association is a non-profit tasked with advancing the adoption and standardization of 8K technology. The organization has handed out its first 8K projector certification for Samsung's flagship 8K projector that was unveiled at CES 2024 back in January yet still is not available to purchase. The Samsung Premiere 8K was billed as the industry's first wireless projector. It utilizes ultra-short throw (UTS) technology combined with advanced aspherical mirrors to beam images from a short distance, effectively eliminating the need for ceiling mounts and other impractical installation hurdles. The projector, which is expected to retail in the five-figure range, features a resolution of 7,680 x 4,320 pixels and up to 4,500 ISO Lumens of brightness. Samsung claims the unit is capable of producing vibrant, lifelike visuals, even in well-lit spaces. Advanced upscaling tech, meanwhile, can enhance the appearance of lower-resolution content while immersive audio capabilities are said to support the latest formats. The 8KA certification considers a range of attributes including resolution, brightness, contrast, and color gamut, as well as high dynamic range performance, upscaling, and audio. The Premiere 8K passed the test with flying colors, and is now the first to receive the coveted certification. According to What Hi-Fi, the consortium is working on a logo program that will allow consumers to easily identify certified projectors when shopping. 8K has been around for longer than most realize. Japanese broadcasting company NHK started researching on the tech way back in 1995, but it wouldn't be until 2012 that Sharp announced the first 8K TV at CES. That was nearly 13 years ago, and 8K content is still incredibly rare. Heck, 4K content arguably has not even gone mainstream yet, especially with regard to live broadcasts like sporing events. Sure, it exists, but such content is not the norm. With CES 2025 just a few weeks away, perhaps we may finally get pricing information and a release date? CES 2025 kicks off on January 7 and runs through the 10th in Las Vegas.Sinn Fein ‘ignored role of 3,000 deaths in damaging community relations’Rangers demand over Liam Scales penalty snub in Scottish League Cup final

"His offenses have consistently showcased a tremendous running game combined with explosive plays through the air. I'm thrilled to work side-by-side with Gus again as we elevate the Florida State offense back to one of the elite groups in college football." UCF also endured a tough 2024 season, going 4-8 after losing eight of its last nine games. During Malzahn's four-year tenure, the Knights went 28-24, including 5-13 in the Big 12 Conference the last two seasons. Malzahn, 59, is 105-62 in 13 seasons as a college head coach, highlighted by a 68-35 mark in eight seasons at Auburn -- which included a BCS title game appearance in 2013. He served as offensive coordinator and play caller when the Tigers won the national title in 2010. Malzahn will be tasked with revitalizing a Florida State offense that helped produce a 13-1 campaign in 2023, when the Seminoles were denied a spot in the College Football Playoff. Over the last three seasons at UCF, his rushing attack has been in the Top 10 in the nation. In his 19 seasons as a college head coach or offensive coordinator, Malzahn's teams have averaged 447.7 yards per game, and three of his teams eclipsed 7,000 yards in a season. --Field Level Media
