18 h. ago Khadija Shaw: ‘Sometimes you have to take a step back and think about your mental health’

In an exclusive interview, the Manchester City striker talks about the horrific racist abuse she suffered last season, playing with Viv Miedema and her hopes for 2025-26“It’s difficult,” says Khadija ‘Bunny’ Shaw. “Sometimes you have to take a step back and think about you and your mental health because if you’re not in a good place you won’t be able to perform. I wasn’t in a good place. It was about more than what happened in that match. There’s a lot that people didn’t and don’t know about.”Shaw is speaking for the first time about her decision to withdraw from Manchester City’s League Cup semi-final against Arsenal in February, four days after she had suffered horrific racist abuse following a 4-3 loss against the same side in the Women’s Super League. Manchester City said they were “appalled” and reported the matter to the police. Continue reading...

The Dockers shrugged off intense pressure to secure a fully-deserved place in this year’s finals, but for the Bulldogs it was the same old storyAhead of finals sign up for our free weekly AFL newsletterI’ve never been one to run with the “let’s just stick to football” line. But every person has their breaking point. Mine came this week when Andrew Dillon – a man who’d spent the previous four days weighing and measuring a slur, and four days negotiating five weeks down to four – carved out a good chunk of his press conference reminding us that Snoop Dog was “a grandfather and a philanthropist”. A few hours later, footage emerged of a less than grandfatherly and less than philanthropic headline act, accompanied by the headline “Snoop Dog’s Dig at Gay Parents”. That was it for me. Within a few hours, the AFL had appointed one of the state’s preeminent spin doctors and crisis managers. She could deal with this sort of stuff.
