      Wales legend Chris Gunter ready to swap League Two for World Cup this winter after dropping down to play for Wimbledon

      by

      CHRIS GUNTER will swap League Two for the World Cup this winter.And the defender believes dropping into the EFL’s bottom division to join AFC Wimbledon in the summer gave him the best chance of booking his place on the flight to Qatar.
      Chris Gunter celebrates Wales beating Belgium in Euro 2016 to reach the semi-final
      Gunter, 33, was one of the stars of Wales’ incredible run to the Euro 2016 semi-finals — knocking out tournament favourites Belgium en route.
      But the former Reading and Nottingham Forest ace — who followed his Charlton boss Johnnie Jackson to Plough Lane this summer — had no qualms about getting his hands dirty against the likes of Crawley and Barrow.
      Gunter told SunSport: “The most important thing leading into a major tournament is to make sure you’re getting regular football. 
      “So from the summer until the World Cup starts, that is three to four months worth of playing time.
      READ MORE EFL NEWS
      “I’m not going to improve or diminish in that space of time so the most important thing was to give myself the best possible chance of playing regular football, which I have done and at a place where I feel comfortable.”
      It is going to be a different world from taking part in the greatest football tournament on the planet which kicks off next month with Wales in the same group as England, USA and Iran.
      And Gunter is proud to be part of history yet again as Wales have not been to a World Cup since they competed in Sweden in 1958. Having been in that 2016 team that broke their 58-year wait to play in a major tournament, he also played in the Euros last summer.
      But the defender says it is a huge shame so many Welsh fans will be unable to go because either they have been priced out by the sky high prices in Qatar or because it falls just before Christmas during a cost-of-living crisis.

      He said: “Regardless of where and when this tournament was being held, for Wales as a country I don’t think we can complain or see it in any negative way.
      “But the only slight bit of disappointment in the logistics of it is it may potentially stop as many fans as we might have taken had it been in the summer plus the whole cost of it will stop people too.
      “I don’t know how FIFA can control the prices of hotels and flights there. Like a lot of things in the world at the minute, things seem to be more expensive with the prices of stuff going up.
      “You should only hope when you have tournaments such as this with fans going from around the world that prices should be a fair one and not inflated so someone makes a load of money.
      “We saw during Covid times that when the fans are not there in the stadium, it’s a completely different sport. 
      “I know from trying to sort a few things out myself out there that it’s expensive. The host nations do have a responsibility to be fair hosts too.
      “But from a players’ point of view, the chance to go to a World Cup is hugely exciting, even if staging it in the middle of a football season is strange.
      “It won’t be like previous tournaments where you get a proper build-up to it. Right up to the tournament, we won’t be able to have too much thought about it because we’ll be still at our clubs and having games.
      “But I’m sure the day we go to Wales and meet up, it’s going to be a short build up and one full of excitement. Hopefully we can go there and do as well as we can.”
      Incredibly, Gunter might not be the only League Two player in the Wales squad.
      Midfielder Jonny Williams (Swindon) and keeper Tom King (Salford) could also be on their way to Qatar.
      Chris Gunter plays in League Two for AFC Wimbledon
      Salford keeper Tom King is also a Wales hopeful for this winter’s World Cup
      Swindon ace Jonny Williams could be going to the World Cup with Wales
      Gunter said: “It just shows you the strength of football in Britain. Name me a country in the world which can get 10,000 crowds for matches in the fifth tier like Wrexham do?“Football is getting better down the levels. It all filters down from the Premier League and is just getting stronger and stronger.”
      AFC Wimbledon got off to a slow start after relegation from League One but travel to Walsall today aiming to post their first back-to-back wins of the season.
      And Gunter said: “We’ve been playing well and apart from Stockport we could have got more out of the games. 
      “While we’re putting performances in and giving ourselves the best chances, we can get the results. We’re now aiming for the results to match our performances.”
      eBay’s EFL for Community Champions Event
      CHRIS GUNTER was speaking as part of eBay’s Community Champions event, in partnership with the EFL.
      eBay is the official partner of EFL as part of its wider Small Business United campaign.
      As part of the partnership, they have launched the 2022 eBay Community Champions event.
      eBay have launched the 2022 Community Champions event
      On October 15, AFC Wimbledon will take on Sutton United in the local League Two derby match. The Community Champions event is eBay’s own spin on this local derby, and a celebration of all things football.
      eBay has bought together four local grassroots teams to see who will be crowned ‘eBay Community Champions 2022’. Two local businesses, Hampers by Lauren, and Dassleresales sponsored the matchday alongside eBay.
      The event will be a series of fun football challenges and games which give grassroots players the opportunity to exhibit their football skills and flare, whilst being professionally coached by Wimbledon and Sutton players. More

      Man Utd fans BURN Mason Greenwood shirts & flog memorabilia on eBay after striker’s rape arrest

      by

      MANCHESTER United fans are burning Mason Greenwoods shirt and try to flog the striker’s memorabilia online after he was released on bail.Greenwood, 20, was first arrested on suspicion of rape and GBH on Sunday after the allegations came to light.

      He spent three nights being quizzed by police after he was re-arrested on suspicion of sexual assault and threats to kill.
      But fans have been trying to shift their shirts after the allegations came to lights when his accuser posted a series of photos and audio on social media.
      Some United fans have been lighting their £65 shirts to destroy them, while others have even tried to scrape the name and numbers off.
      Footage shows one fan using an aerosol to burn the away shirt on a washing line, while others set fire to it on a bonfire.
      The videos come after the club confirmed that any fans wanting to exchange their shirts with Greenwood’s name on would be able to do so for free.
      A footy-man United fan forked out £135 on a full kit for his son, with Greenwood’s name on, and had contacted the club to ask for the change after buying it at the beginning of the season.

      United confirmed that fans could get a new shirt with no name on or a replacement one with another players name on in light of the allegations.
      Collectors who have shelled out a fortune for rare memorabilia are also trying to flog their goods on eBay.  
      Those with ultra-rare football cards have listed merchandise featuring the rape rap-haunted Manchester United star for up to £1,999.
      Many are the scarce Panini Chronicles cards that change hands for thousands of pounds.
      But of the dozens of listings, none had attracted bids as collectors wait to see if the police bring charges against the England striker.
      A Panini Chronicles card was number 14 from 25 from 2019 and had the player as a “rated rookie”. It was said to be in mint condition and offered for sale in a protective case.
      One trader was offering a boot signed by the player for £345, and an autographed shirt was up for sale for £499.
      Buyers are told: “A hand signed mounted Manchester United FC Football boot of Mason Greenwood. Frame size 50x40cm
      “Frame comes in a solid wood box frame. Item comes with a certificate of authenticity.”
      Collectors are also flogging his merch for thousandsCredit: EBay
      Many fans have tried to destroy their shirts with the strikers name onCredit: TikTok
      All his merchandise has been dropped from the official United site in the wake of the allegations.
      Greenwood was also removed from Manchester United’s squad on FIFA 22 following claims made against him.
      Greenwood’s alleged rape victim last night broke her silence and thanked everyone for their “support” after he was released on bail.
      The student, 18, revealed that the past week has been “difficult” for her and she will not be making any more statements pending the police investigation.
      Greenwood was released on bail pending further investigation on Wednesday, but the star has not been seen since.
      He appears to have toughened up security at his luxury mansion in Bowdon, Greater Manchester, after being released on bail.
      Two security guards were seen standing watch outside the home and an expert was also pictured arriving to install a £350 home security system.
      Greenwood was suspended indefinitely from the club hours after the allegations surfaced on social media.
      It comes as Greenwood’s teammates returned to training after the winter break minus the No11.
      Several of his teammates have also unfollowed the star on social media after the images came to light.
      The £75,000-a-week footballer was taken into custody on Sunday after police swooped on his home.
      Security staff, thought to have been provided by United, were present at a second home he owns nearby and they confirmed that his parents were inside.
      In a statement, Manchester United said: “Manchester United reiterates its strong condemnation of violence of any kind.
      “As previously communicated, Mason Greenwood will not train with, or play for, the club until further notice.”
      A source confirmed Greenwood will still receive his wages while on suspension.
      But his sponsor Nike said they were “deeply concerned” and have suspended his deal.
      The club’s official partner Cadbury said Greenwood won’t appear on any of their marketing products.
      Sponsor TeamViewer also announced that they are “closely monitoring developments”.

      Original prices for tickets to the final ranged between £82 and £808.
      Consumer rights advocates Which? told football fans to avoid buying tickets through unofficial channels.
      Expert Adam French said: “Even though some of these websites claim to offer tickets from ‘100 per cent’ trusted sellers, this is often not the case.
      “If you’re not lucky enough to get your hands on a ticket through the official website you might be better off saving your cash and making plans to watch Gareth Southgate and the lads take on Italy with family and friends at home or in the pub.
      “If you insist on trying your luck and buying tickets for the match from an unofficial seller, make sure to pay with a credit card for purchases over £100 so you stand a better chance of getting a refund if things go wrong.”
      UEFA warned that under their terms and conditions fans who buy their tickets second-hand may not be let into the stadium.
