“This is a moment where regulators and the government need to be tough and to show that being part of some oligopoly doesn’t win, and they have got to take that risk and deflate some of this bubble that has been growing for the last decade and beyond”

- Crossbench peer Lord Jim O’neill, a former non-executive director of Manchester United, on proposals for a new European Super League. “She’s got a little ledger, both girls get ledgers, so they know how to manage their money. I think it’s so important for women especially to understand how to manage their money. As women, we’re often the ones that get left behind, we don’t want to ask for our pay rise, and we’re not always on top of our finances” - Musician and presenter Myleene Klass on teaching her daughters. “This is an existentia­l threat to all of the principles of football as we have known it as part of British culture for centuries now. It is of absolutely crucial importance that part of our cultural heritage cannot be hijacked by foreign billionair­es for their own sporting circus and ripping apart all of the tradition that goes with English club football” - Kevin Miles, chief executive of the Football Supporters’ Associatio­n, calls for authoritie­s to take action over the proposed European Super League.

“Where you come from and the financial circumstan­ces of your background should not be a barrier to those of talent and excellence receiving much-needed support and developmen­t” - Actor Michael Sheen, who has developed a bursary scheme with Oxford University’s Jesus College, to support Welsh students there.
