      Kammy — famed for his catchphrase of “Unbelievable Jeff” when giving match updates to Soccer Saturday host Jeff Stelling — told how he was on a busy Heathrow to King’s Cross service when he offered a “mature lady” the chance to sit down in his place.
      Chris, 66, said she replied: “Why would I need to?”
      He added on X/Twitter: “I gave her a look of disdain.
      “On reflection, I didn’t offer my seat to any blokes of a mature age.

      “So my apologies. Chivalry is dead.”
      The broadcaster added: “I have chewed on this since Tuesday night and realise I am still a dinosaur.
      “I’m sorry and accept that I was in the wrong and hopefully won’t do it again.”
      Some on the social media platform backed the star, saying: “As a mature woman, I commend your good manners.”

      But others insisted he was being old-fashioned, and sexist, and one said: “I don’t want men to offer me a seat, thanks.”
      Unsurprisingly, popular Chris was backed by male fans, with one saying writing: “Manners maketh the man.”
      Another fan added: “She is the one at fault.
      “There aren’t many of us left.”
      Last year, Chris received an MBE for services to charity and anti-racism.
      He has previously told how he was diagnosed with speech disorder, apraxia.
      The condition affects pathways from the brain, making it difficult for someone to say what they want correctly or consistently.
      Chris had experimental treatment in Mexico which he says has helped. More

      Mikel Arteta’s masterpiece of a game on Saturday was not forgotten especially after Gabriel’s standout performance.
      Amazing fans and pundits, the centre-back headed in a corner in the 11th minute to open up the scoreline.
      It even had the Premier League analyse the stunning strike seeing Leandro Trossard created a space inside the box to allow Gabriel to head in Declan Rice’s corner.
      And the Gunners fans were fuming as they felt the league had “exposed” Arteta’s wizardry tactics.

      One fan said on Twitter: “I’m sorry but no other club gets analysed like this. Please shut up and leave us alone.”
      While another added: “Wait, isn’t this against the rules. You can’t expose a team’s tactics.”
      A third then angrily put: “Shame on you Premier League! Exposing our secrets that set-piece dedicated analysts who get paid 50k a year can’t spot!”
      The clip shows how Trossard drags Andersen from Palace out of his spot before Gabriel appears to nod the ball into the goal.

      The Norwegian skipper was spotted signalling the Arsenal’s corner taker via his socks allowing Gabriel to score.
      Arsenal went on to chip in another four goals including Gabriel’s assists that saw Palace keeper Dean Henderson net an own goal following another corner. More

      And despite their predicament in being trapped, the fan appears to see the funny side of the ordeal with video showing them to be smirking.

      And two League Two matches have been postponed just hours before kick-off due to frozen pitches.
      Notts County and Walsall’s respective clashes with Stockport County and Accrington Stanley have been axed due to unplayable pitches at Meadow Lane and the Bescot Stadium.
      The Magpies confirmed the postponement of their clash with Stockport via a statement on their official website and on Twitter.
      It read: “This afternoon’s Sky Bet League Two fixture against Stockport County has been postponed due to a frozen pitch.
      “Following persistently cold temperatures, which have fallen as low as -7 in Nottingham this week, the Meadow Lane playing surface is heavily frozen despite frost covers and heat lamps being used, as well as groundstaff working through the night.
      “Following a preliminary inspection by an EFL-appointed official yesterday, it was determined that the match referee should assess the surface at 8.30am this morning.
      “As the frost is well established and the sun cannot reach all areas of the playing surface, the referee had little confidence that today’s temperatures would improve conditions sufficiently for the match to safely go ahead.
      “And it was agreed that an early decision was sensible in the interests of both sets of supporters and their clubs.
