      Neville, 46, addressed the posts in his press conference after being named the Timbers boss.
      He said: “I think I addressed these in 2018 when I was appointed the head coach of the England Women’s team.
      “They are by no means a reflection of me as a person or of me as a character and without a shadow of a doubt the way I was brought up by my mother and father in terms of values that they instilled in me.

      “The tweets that I put out were wrong in 2011, and they’re wrong today.
      “So I want to get to know the Timbers Army and all the everybody in the city and I want them to get to know me as a person.
      “I want to make sure there is an incredible trust between us and the main thing is we have a common goal, that we want to be successful and we want to win.”
      The posts included jokes about having “battered” his wife although he did eventually delete them

      Another suggested that women would be too “busy making breakfast/getting kids ready” to see his messages.
      In 2018, former FA chief executive Martin Glenn said Neville’s tweets do not “meet the threshold for issuing a charge”.
      Neville had been out of work since being sacked by Inter Miami in June.
      He has signed a contract with his new club that will run until 2026.
      He has been backed for success by Portland general manager Ned Grabavoy.
      He added: “The most intriguing thing when we looked at Phil was how diverse his coaching background was.
      “The longer we went through the process, the more we got to know Phil, the more people we spoke to, it’s [the tweet] just not indicative of his character.” More

      “He didn’t do that, so I’m so glad we beat them. Players like that, I don’t think it’s acceptable.
      “A lot of them walked in at the end.

      “I went up to shake Jorginho’s hand but he didn’t want to! I was  fuming, it’s not on.

      Furious Arsenal suffered their first loss of the season following  Anthony Gordon’s controversial second-half winner.

      What is Charles Leclerc’s net worth?

      by

      CHARLES Leclerc is one of the top competitors in Formula One, having finished as runner-up in the drivers’ standings for the 2022 season.Here we look at the Ferrari man’s salary, career and net worth.
      In 2023 Charles Leclerc has the third-highest salary in Formula OneCredit: Splash
      Who is Charles Leclerc?
      Charles Marc Hervé Perceval Leclerc was born on October 16, 1997 in Monte Carlo, Monaco.
      His nickname in Italy is ‘il Predestinato’, which translates to ‘The Predestined’, and was given to him by F1 commentator Carlo Vanzini.
      He competed from an early age in karting, becoming French Champion in 2009, winning the Monaco Kart Cup in 2010, the CIK-FIA Academy Trophy and the Junior World Cup in 2011.
      Leclerc was the top rookie in Formula Renault in his first season, and then also in Formula Three the following year.
      READ MORE ON CHARLES LECLERC
      In 2016 he won the GP3 Series before dominating the 2017 season of FIA Formula Two.
      He was spotted by Nicolas Todt in 2010 and joined the Ferrari Driver Academy in 2016.
      Charles entered Formula one in 2018 with Alfa Romeo Sauber F1, before moving to Ferrari in 2019, where his teammate was four-time World Champion Sebastian Vettel.
      Following seven pole positions, 10 podiums and two victories, Leclerc finished fourth in the 2019 World Championship and extended his contract with Ferrari until 2024.
      Most read in Motorsport
      The 2020 season was below the Monegasque driver’s expectation as finished on the podium on just twice, finishing 8th in the drivers’ classification.
      In 2021, Charles secured two more pole positions and a podium.
      In 2022 he had an excellent season, finishing as runner-up behind Max Verstappen in the drivers’ standings.
      Aside from racing, Leclerc has recently hit the headlines after embarking on a career in the music business.
      He released his debut single titled AUS23 (1:1) in April.
      The four-minute classical song features Leclerc, 25, playing the piano.
      And the Monegasque driver has enjoyed a fast start after venturing into the world of music.
      According to ESPN, Leclerc spent time inside the Top 10 of the Worldwide iTunes song chart following the release of his song.
      The title of the track, AUS23 (1:1) is a tribute to the Australian Grand Prix, where the song was born.
      Leclerc did not start playing the piano until the Covid-19 pandemic, but has “fallen in love with the instrument” after spending time playing it.
      The Ferrari star said on his Spotify page: “I’m excited to share with you a piano song that I’ve been working on, born out of my passion for music and created as a way to disconnect from racing and relax in between races.
      “I’ve created this song around the Australian Formula 1 Grand Prix which is why I called it AUS23 (1:1). This is the way we call the Australian Grand Prix in my Formula One team and thought it would be a nice connection to the racing world.
      “After posting a story on Instagram of me playing that piano piece I had composed, I had a lot of positive feedback from the fans that inspired me to record it, making it easier for fans to enjoy my music.
      “My love for music has always been there, but it wasn’t until the pandemic that I started playing the piano.
      “With more time at home, I decided to buy a piano and learn to play. Since then, I’ve fallen in love with the instrument and find myself playing it whenever I’m at home.”
      Charles has also hilariously put himself forward to represent Monaco at next year’s Eurovison.
      The country withdrew from the 2007 edition due to poor results and three failures to qualify.
      But on hearing the news Monaco could be back for the 2024 Eurovision Song Contest due to the launch of TV Monaco and its membership with the European Broadcasting Union, Leclerc took to social media to offer his services.
      On X, formerly Twitter, he wrote: “I’m ready 🎤.”
      What is Charles Leclerc’s net worth?
      Reports of Leclerc’s net worth vary dramatically.
      At the bottom end EssentiallySports puts it at $12million (£9.7million).
      In the middle CelebrityNetWorth judges it to be $40million (£32.3million).
      Whereas at the other end of the spectrum Sportskeeda believes Charles has amassed a whopping $125million fortune (£101million).
      What is Charles Leclerc’s salary at Ferrari?
      Leclerc’s 2023 salary at Ferrari is reportedly $36million (£29million).

      This makes him the third-highest earning racer in F1.
      Unsurprisingly, the two drivers ahead of him are Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton. More

      While on the set of the Justice League, she seemed to have developed a crush on actor Jason Momoa, saying: “We had to train with him. I was an Amazonian. I remember this guy bear crawling towards me and I was like ‘oh my god, he is so hot’.”

      Arabella, who took part in the fifth season of Love Island in 2019, split from New York businessman Richie Akiva last month.

      Fans say Newcastle Twitter admin ‘chose violence’ after savage tweet during Man Utd Carabao Cup mauling

      FANS claim Manchester United were “cooked on and off the pitch” as Newcastle’s social media team “chose violence” with a taunting tweet.Three days after a 3-0 Prem derby humbling against Manchester City, United departed the Carabao Cup by the same score against the Toon.

      Noting some home supporters exiting early, the Magpies’ admin posted: “Tonight’s attendance at Old Trafford is 72,000. Slightly less now.”
      And the response on X, formerly known as Twitter, was no kinder to the Red Devils.
      “It’s a zinger,” said one fan, and “Total violation,” stated another – apparently with glee.
      United were booed off at the end of each half by disheartened fans.

      And after the Toon added to the home misery with their online jibe, one supporter mocked Erik ten Hag’s troubled side further by posting: “Cooking them on the pitch. Cooking them on Twitter.”
      Fans, at least from the North East, were even more delighted when one viewer posted what he called “context” – a clip of those United fans leaving before the final whistle.
      Newcastle supporters could be heard chanting in that video: “We can see you sneaking out.” 
      One fan replied online: “Watched like 32 times. I love this so much.”

      Old Trafford boss Ten Hag told Sky Sports: “We know this is not good enough. We have to take responsibility for it, so do I. We’re sorry to the fans.”
      And of the jeers from United supporters, the Dutchman added: “We have to recover from it. We have to do it quickly. Saturday (at Fulham) is the next game. We have to raise our standards.”

      The two Saudi Pro League sides faced off in a dramatic encounter that saw tensions flare up during stoppage time in the first half.
      Al-Nassr star Talisca hit the back of the net but his effort was chalked off following a VAR review that deemed Ronaldo was offside and interfered with play.
      That decision angered the five-time Ballon d’Or winner so much that he demanded the replacement of the match official as he signalled for a substitution while pointing at the ref.
      Fans were left stunned by the Manchester United legend’s shocking reaction as they took to social media.

      And that one stated: “GOAT.”
      The game went to extra-time after 90 goalless minutes, which saw Talisca being sent off just moments after his goal was disallowed as he caught an opponent with his left arm.
      However, Al-Ettifaq manager Steven Gerrard also lost one of his own players as Ali Hazazi was shown a red card in the 89th minute.
      Al-Nassr were the ones who ultimately emerged victorious, however, thanks to Sadio Mane’s winner three minutes before the end of extra-time.
