Gary Neville was sacked by Valencia on this day in 2016 after spending only four months as the Spanish side’s head coach.
The former Manchester United and England defender, who at the time was part of Roy Hodgson’s England coaching staff, was dismissed just 28 games into what was his first management role.
That featured 10 wins, seven draws and 11 losses, including a 7-0 thrashing at Barcelona in the Copa del Rey.

Neville said in a statement on Los Che’s website: “I would like to thank Valencia, the fans, staff and the players.
“I would have liked to have continued the work I started. But I understand that we a…

The Dallas Cowboys and Los Angeles Chargers will be sick of one another by the end of the week.
Following two joint practices on Wednesday and Thursday, the two meet for Week 2 of the preseason on Saturday night.
Both teams got off to a rough start in the preseason, losing their respective openers. Despite the fact that mostly backups will be on the field, there could be an added intensity to this game after competing against one another in practice this week.
Check out our NFL picks and predictions for the between the Dallas Cowboys and Los Angeles Chargers on Saturday, August 20.

The New York Jets and Cleveland Browns have a lot to prove this upcoming NFL season. Whether or not they choose the Hall of Fame Game to be the first step in that process remains to be seen.
Football bettors get their first taste of NFL action (sort of) with the preseason kickoff tonight, when New York and Cleveland clash in Canton, Ohio.
Don’t expect to see many stars or standouts for either side, which means handicapping this exhibition opener takes some finesse. It also takes discipline and patience. Just because this is the first whiff of NFL odds wagering since the Super Bowl doesn’t mean you should go big with your bets.
I break down the point spread and Over/Under for the NFL Hall of Fame Game and give my best NFL picks and predictions for …
The New York Giants and Las Vegas Raiders might highlight a Week 9 afternoon slate of lackluster games, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t value to be found in Vegas this weekend with the home side sitting as a 1.5-point favorite with a falling total.
With Daniel Jones getting back under center after some poor QB play in his absence, is it time to buy some shares of the New York pass catchers who could see lots of time on the field with Darren Waller out?

The undefeated Seahawks boast the best passing defense in the NFL and my Seahawks vs. Lions predictions see the Lions banking on their running backs.

It is a depleted RB Leipzig squad that will arrive at Old Trafford on Wednesday. No matter. Facing Manchester United in the Champions League is still a pleasure, but it no longer feels like a special treat for a club that reached the semi-finals last season, while Ole Gunnar Solsjkær’s side had to content themselves with the Thursday night version of continental action.
Julian Nagelsmann will do his Monday morning head count with Lukas Klostermann and Konrad Laimer among those definitely out and doubts over the always-running Kevin Kampl and Nordi Mukiele. The coach will make light of it, as he already has done since Leipzig fell short in the last four against PSG in Lisbon. The feeling on that August night was that perhaps the club’s y…
Iraq will definitely not make an appearance at the 2010 World Cup. Their chances were slim, but did exist as long as FIFA hadn t replied to an appeal concerning their qualifier with Qatar in March.
Qatar fielded Brazilian-born Emerson in their first of two matches with Iraq. It turned out however, that the player had already represented the Brazilian U-20 team using the name of Marcio Passos De Albuquerque.
Since this is against FIFA regulations, Iraq tried their luck and filed an appeal against the result of that match, a 2-0 defeat.
But the world governing body on Monday announced that it will not be treating the issue, as Iraq paid the required fee eleven days too late.
The second game was lost 0-1, allowing Qatar to advance to the next round.

Euro 2020 is disappearing before our eyes, with the delayed tournament somehow already at the business end as we head into the final three matches.
It s been a thrill ride since the very beginning. From Italy making a sparkling start and Denmark rallying after Christian Eriksen s medical emergency, to France falling at the last 16 and England reaching the semi-finals of a second successive major tournament.
Italy, England, Spain and Denmark are all that s left as Euro 2020 enters its final week, and at this point it seems particularly tricky to call, particularly between first three.
But, given how integral statistics are to football these days, data can potentially give you edge when attempting to predict certain outcomes, and this is where Stats Perform s Artif…
