Postecoglou 'cherishes' Celtic days and still watches games
Things haven't gone swimmingly for the Aussie since his move to Tottenham and he may well be facing the sack, so it would be easy to forgive him for pining after his trophy-laden Hoops days. And those moments still have a special place in his heart. So says former Hibs boss Nick Montgomery, now working as part of Postecoglou's backroom staff at Spurs. He says the coaching team are always watching games in the background and the 59-year--old has been delighted to see Brendan Rodgers carry on his success. 'Ange loved his time at Celtic,' Montgomery claimed. 'I think he cherishes those times at Celtic, it's a massive club.

'Probably, people doubted him but Ange managed to do that. He's always watching the Celtic games and the A-League games and the Japanese games. 'We always have them on in the coach's office. He obviously really enjoyed his time there and no doubt he's really happy for the success again this year.' Postecoglou is under fire despite winning the Europa League after finishing a lowly 17th in the Premier League at the same time. Montgomery insists that European success wouldn't have been possible without the manager and has backed him up. "He's obviously been massive in this cup win,' the former Easter Road man said. 'Look, he's a great guy and I think he's a man that's full of self-belief.

5 Effective Solutions to Reduce Knee Cracking - Jordan News
Knee issues—such as cracking and stiffness—are a common source of discomfort that affects millions of people across all age groups. Knee cracking refers to the sound produced when moving the joint, often experienced as a popping or shifting sensation inside the knee. اضافة اعلان Although this sound may cause concern, it is often harmless and not indicative of serious damage. Physiotherapist Ange Periyasamy, who works with Healthspan, explains that knee cracking is typically the result of changes within the joint, often linked to age or genetics. However, she emphasizes that the way we use our knees and our movement habits are key factors in joint health. To reduce knee cracking and improve joint function, Ange recommends several practical steps: Strengthen Knee Muscles: Appropriate exercises can support the knee and reduce the strain on surrounding ligaments and tendons. Improve Knee Flexibility: Regular movement and stretching—especially targeting the quadriceps and hamstrings—help maintain joint flexibility and reduce stiffness. Lose Excess Weight: Every extra kilogram places additional stress on the knees, increasing the risk of pain and joint problems. Maintain Good Nutrition: Experts emphasize the importance of vitamin D and calcium for bone health. Some supplements, like glucosamine, may help certain individuals, though evidence of their effectiveness is limited. Use the AposHealth Device: Worn on the feet, this non-invasive device helps improve walking patterns and reduce pain. It is an approved option for patients with knee osteoarthritis who haven't responded to conventional treatments. Ange warns that if cracking is accompanied by severe pain or other symptoms—such as persistent stiffness, swelling, or joint instability—it may signal more serious conditions like rheumatoid arthritis or vitamin D deficiency, which require specialized treatment. She stresses that early diagnosis and appropriate treatment can greatly enhance patients' quality of life and reduce knee discomfort, highlighting the importance of a healthy lifestyle to maintain joint health for as long as possible. — The Sun

Regeneron stock sinks over trial data for smoker's lungs drug
Regeneron Pharmaceuticals (REGN) shares sank in Friday trading after the company published disappointing drug trial results for a treatment on a condition called smoker's lungs. The drug was co-developed with Sanofi (SNY, Yahoo Finance senior health reporter Anjalee Khemlani comes on Market Domination Overtime to speak more on this. Regeneron has put up a bid to acquire genetic testing firm 23andMe (ME) after the company filed for bankruptcy. To watch more expert insights and analysis on the latest market action, check out more Market Domination Overtime here. Well shares of Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, they're sinking. The move lower comes as trial results for the company's co-developed experimental drug with Sanofi disappoints. Joining us now with more is Yahoo Finance's, Angelique Clamontange. That's right, Josh. They got news of uh, the drug not necessarily meeting the end points that it was supposed to. The stock down about 19%, uh closing at that rate today. And we saw that this is a drug that the company had uh, had co-developed with Sanofi and it's supposed to address chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and they're looking at former smokers who have basically inflammation or damage to their lung tissue, making it harder to breathe. Now the primary endpoint of reducing that kind of obstruction they had one trial that met the endpoint and one that didn't. So that mixed result is really what caused the pressure on the stock today. And this of course coming after Regeneron came to if you will save the day and took 23andMe out of bankruptcy recently. So they'd really gotten a bump in their stock because of that and now just kind of washed away and hitting a four-year low today. And Ange, why does this matter more for Regeneron than Sanofi? Yeah, Regeneron has had a little bit of questions surrounding it. Um, you know, some of the uh, analysts did uh, have looked at its pipeline and that's been sort of where the pressure's coming from. We saw some downgrades today just on this news. RBC and Wells Fargo punishing that stock because of the, the news today. Regeneron doesn't have any near term blockbusters and this was supposed to essentially be it. It's important to note that they already are working with Sanofi on a different product that did hit, that has been on the market. Dupixent, and it did get approved for COPD last year. That drug brings in about 14 billion and so this was looking to be sort of on the same range. Uh, even though that drug does address a number of other diseases but it could have been another blockbuster for Regeneron and now without that their near term pipeline is in question. Ange, thanks so much, appreciate it. Have a great weekend. You too.

'Nothing like a major trophy to galvanise a club'
We asked for your views on our fan writer Ali Speechly's end of season scorecard (27 May, 09:54 BST).Here are some of your comments:Jon: I'm with Ali on the season's assessment. I'm lucky to have been supporting Spurs since 1967 (my late dad was a Gooner - it was his brother-in-law who got me supporting Spurs) so I've been part of a fanbase who have actually experienced winning! There's nothing like a major trophy to galvanise a club. I hope Daniel Levy remembers this when considering Ange's My overriding emotion is relief, the Europa league win masked over an awful season and now it's time for a fresh start and ideas with a new manager instead of leaving it 10 games into the new season when we will be in the relegation Sorry Ali but I totally disagree with you. If this manager stays, we will probably get relegated next season. Yes winning a trophy is brilliant, but so us actually trying to challenge in the Premier League. These excuses of injured players! They all been back for a while now and results in the Premier League have got worse. So thanks for the trophy but please let's get someone who can actually manage on maybe two Work in progress. Can be exciting and abysmal in equal measure. It was, ultimately, all about the trophy. The icing on the cake; Champions League football next season. Ange is a winner!John: I know the league form and position are not acceptable for a club such as Spurs but we have won a trophy which the manager promised so I hope we keep him and see where he takes us in the next 12 months.

Rock for Llamau Festival in Crumlin raises £6,000 for Llamau
Housed this year at The Patriot in Crumlin, the line-up for the whopping three-day event on the last weekend in May featured 15 of the best bands and artists that South Wales has to offer. Rock for Llamau was first organised by Gina Hurley in 2016 to gather funds to help some of the most vulnerable people in Wales. Since then, a total of seven live music and auction events have been held, raising thousands of pounds in aid of Wales's leading homelessness charity. With the festival now in its eighth year and with help from its new home, The Patriot, the event has grown to become a three-day ordeal for the first time, with every band on the line-up donating their time to play for audiences and help raise funds for a worthy cause. 'I believe no one, especially young people, should be homeless,' said Ms Hurley, 'Some of the reasons why these people are homeless is horrific. Everyone deserves a safe and warm home. I wanted to use my skills to help those lacking what we take for granted.' Gina Hurley addresses the Rock for Llamau audience (Image: Megan Jenkins, Newsquest) Since having begun contributing to Llamau's cause in 2015, Ms Hurley has raised around £25,000 – enough to fund over 800 counselling sessions to develop positive mental health. This year's event alone has contributed over £6000 to the sum with the final figure yet to be confirmed, far exceeding their hopes and expectations. 'The music scene always attracts people that want to make a difference and using music to promote Llamau was a no-brainer,' said Ms Hurley. Sally Telford, of Llamau, said: "This year felt like the perfect time to scale up from a day-festival to a full weekender, and we couldn't be prouder of the result. 'The heart of this event is to celebrate Welsh heavy music, foster a supportive community and fundraise for Llamau's to end homelessness in Wales. 'While the figures aren't in yet, we have broken a new fundraising record of at least £6,000. This is a testament to Gina Hurley's tireless work and spirit, and Ange and The Patriot staff's generous choice to provide the venue and staffing to make this happen. 'We cannot thank everyone involved enough."
