      The Sun understands that some of Jack’s closest family were at his 24-acre Cheshire bolthole including Sasha, his parents, gran, two sisters and brother.
      The “shaken” group were said to be unfamiliar with the mansion, which Jack moved into just before Christmas, as it was their “first visit”.
      A source exclusively told The Sun: “The family are really shaken. The gang took a lot of watches and jewellery.
      “Initially, they feared they could be facing a hostage situation or worse.”

      The source added: “They executed their raid when Manchester City were playing live on TV and all of his family had gathered downstairs to cheer him on.
      “No one was injured but there was a lot of panic – everyone was terrified as they were all so vulnerable.
      “It’s an enormous property, so it is understandable why no-one heard anything at first.
      “It was also the first time the family had visited and so they were unfamiliar with the property.

      “When the dogs went mad, and they could hear people creeping about, they pressed the security panic alarm.
      “An emergency crack unit responded immediately with multiple police cars and a chopper deployed.”
      Despite extensive security and perimeter fencing around Jack’s home, the crooks got in and fled with £1million of watches and jewellery.
      Grealish and 27-year-old model and influencer Sasha bought the “exceptional modern” seven-bed mansion last year but have only just moved in.
      On Christmas Day Grealish and Sasha posed with their dog Skye and wrote on  Instagram: “Merry Christmas everyone, beautiful day with the family.”
      Jack also posted an image of a dinner table set for eight guests and a menu titled “Sasha and Jack Christmas Day 2023”.
      In October The Sun told how Jack had won a planning battle to build a leisure suite at the ­mansion — complete with his own treatment room.
      He enjoys a close relationship with his immediate family and has described sister Hollie, 20, as his best friend.
      Confirming their investigation, Cheshire Police told The Sun: “At around 9.50pm on Wednesday December 27 police were called to reports of a burglary.
      “The caller reported that a number of items had been stolen.
      “Officers supported by police dogs and National Police Air Service were deployed and searches were conducted in the local area but there was no trace of the suspects.

      Around ten of the 28-year-old England star’s family had gathered round the TV to watch Grealish help City put Everton to the sword.
      The Sun understands that some of Jack’s closest family were at his 24-acre Cheshire bolthole including fiancée Sasha Attwood, his parents, gran, two sisters and brother.
      But when Jack’s dogs began barking frantically and his relatives heard noises upstairs, they instantly hit panic buttons to alert cops.
      Despite extensive security and perimeter fencing around Jack’s   lavish home, the crooks got in and fled with £1million of watches and jewellery.

      Cops responded to a call at 9.50pm before shaken residents saw five police patrol cars at 10pm.
      A police helicopter scoured the area overhead with locals warned to stay indoors, before the gang were confirmed to have fled.
      And Jack’s “terrified” loved ones were said to have been “fearing a hostage situation”.

      The shaken group — including fiancée Sasha Attwood, his parents, gran, two sisters and brother — dashed for cover at the unfamiliar mansion which Jack moved into just before Christmas.
      Police fearing a hostage situation raced to the scene and a helicopter scoured the estate.

      Yesterday forensic crime scene officers were seen leaving the property while two officers were carrying out door-to-door enquiries with neighbours in the hope of finding any CCTV footage.
      Sources said Jack was told of the break-in minutes after City’s win at Goodison Park.
      And shaken residents told how five police patrol cars dashed to the   area at 10pm.
      One said: “The police arrived at my property and asked if they could enter the land to carry out searches.
      “They went towards Grealish’s land and were shining lights up and down a bridleway.
      “They said there was a man on the loose and that we should lock our doors  then they drove off.
      “A police helicopter was circling for about 20-30 minutes and shining a red light down but then it flew off.”
      Jack had a perimeter fence installed soon after purchasing the vast property.
      Signs warn it is protected by a security company and guards are based  in a mobile home on the driveway.
      Yesterday a van from Adept Security Systems which specialises in CCTV, intruder alarms and barriers and gates was seen parked  at the property.

      Moment woman is ‘knocked out’ after throwing punches in football hooligan fight after Crystal Palace and Brighton game

      by

      A WOMAN was among a trio of hooligans who threw punches in a shocking brawl after a football game – before she was knocked to the ground. Daisy Adams, 23, her brother Calum Adams, 28, and ex Oliver Treagus, 22, were caught on CCTV in the shocking fight on the streets of Brighton.

      The clash came after a Brighton & Hove Albion and Crystal Palace match in March this year and the trio have now been dragged before the court.
      Footage showed the group approaching a pub, before they started shoving security outside the door.
      Bystanders can be seen trying to intervene as the trio start throwing punches as the guards try to protect themselves.
      Daisy can be seen rushing at and punching the security as they try to hold her back.

      Innocent onlookers and security can be seen tumbling to the ground as the violent scuffle takes over the footpath.
      Amid the chaos, Daisy is knocked to the ground and appears to be knocked out, with a man hurrying to try to get her off the wet concrete.
      Her brother Calum had started causing issues in the hours prior, when he approached a group of Crystal Palace supporters as they left Brighton Station.
      He started abusing the group and being aggressive towards cops, seeing his match day ticket cancelled.
      Most read in Football
      Then, at 9.30pm, the violence outside the pub erupted.
      The trio had previously admitted to affray and this week appeared in the Lewes Crown Court for sentencing.
      Daisy was slapped with an 18-month community order, with 15 Rehabilitation Activity Requirement sessions.
      She also has to pay a £200 fine.
      Brother Calum was locked up for six months, and also given a six-year Football Banning Order.
      And Dasiy’s ex Treagus was sentenced to 150 hours of unpaid work as part of an 18-month community order. He must also pay a £200 fine.
      A four-year Football Banning Order was also imposed.
      Sussex Police’s dedicated Football Officer, Darren Balkham, said: “The behaviour of the Adams family and Treagus was appalling.
      “Not only in how Calum spoke to officers before the match, but also in their drunken behaviour later in the night.
      Read more on The Sun
      “As a result, Calum Adams and Oliver Treagus have been served with Football Banning Orders which prevent them accessing football matches.
      “This case demonstrates our determination to catch offenders, and to ensure that football supporters and the wider public can attend matches or go about their business safely.”

      A statement from Sheffield United said: “Following a thorough review of the valuable input provided by each of the key witnesses put forward by Maddy’s family and the Club, the investigation has found no evidence of wrongdoing.
      “The Club is always looking for ways to evolve and will reflect on the outcomes and recommendations arising from the investigation to consider how processes and policies may be improved.”

      “This all changed gradually from February this year.

      Timofey (right) was a gifted young boxer who had made it to the finals of a junior competition
      The youngster died soon afterwards as he was rushed to hospital in Pervouralsk, in the Sverdlovsk region.
      He had appeared to hold his own in the fight but when the pair were separated by the referee, he backed slowly towards the ropes, and fell. 
      “When the boy became ill, the referee did not immediately stop the fight,” said an eyewitness. 
      “That’s why he missed some blows.

      “Plus, his opponent was shorter, and at that moment, he hit him in the liver.”
      It was only when Timofey retreated into the corner and collapsed in the ring that the fight was stopped, said those watching. 
      The other boy initially celebrated but then realised Timofey was in trouble and went to try and help. 
      Coaches and medics also rushed into the ring as the tragedy unfolded.

      Sports journalist Alexander Lyutikov said: “A 14-year-old boxer lost consciousness during the final of the city championship. 
      “He died in the ambulance.
      “I’m watching this video and cannot imagine how the deceased’s rival feels now.”
      A police probe has begun into the teenager’s tragic death. 
      Children from the tournament rushed without coats in the minus 14C cold to demand the opening of a barrier at the hotel where the contest was held,  after an ambulance sent to help the wounded boxer was not allowed in.
      The ambulance could not initially get past a barrier into the hotel where the fight was being held.
      Children watching the tournament rushed, without coats on in -14C temperatures, to demand it be given access.
      “Shame on the hotel,” said a local.
      “Children ran outside without coats  in a panic so the ambulance could reach him.
      “A man forcibly raised the barrier.”
      The boy was described as an accomplished young boxer and had won all his rounds at the contest.
      “He has been boxing for about six full years,” said an acquaintance. 
      “He led an absolutely healthy lifestyle. He didn’t drink any energy drinks. 
      “He was positive, kind and helpful. He never insulted anyone. 
      “And he always came to the rescue when anyone needed help.”
      He was from a loving family and had two sisters, aged 15 and four. 
      “His father works at a local factory, his mother is self-employed,” said police spokesman Valery Gorelykh.
      The boy received a blow to his liver, he said. 
      “A few moments later, he fell in the ring. 
      “Detailed and exact circumstances are now being clarified by police officers and  colleagues from the regional Investigative Committee.”

      She said: “Our hearts will forever be broken, and there are no words to describe the huge hole it has left in all of our hearts.”

      “Two days after he turned 16 he made his debut for me in Long Eaton Utd Reserves and proved he was good enough to play at that level by scoring.
      “He always played with a smile on his face was never greedy always wanting to set others up instead of having a go himself.
      “I have lost a very good footballer, a great lad and a good mate.
      “Until I can be your football manager again Sam and we meet again on the heavenly pitch R.I.P you will be truly missed.”
