Super Bowl 58: San Francisco 49ers v Kansas City Chiefs Venue: Allegiant Stadium, Las Vegas Date: Sunday, 11 February Start: 23:30 GMT (15:30 PST) BBC coverage: Listen to commentary on BBC Radio 5 Live and follow live text on the BBC Sport website and app We have a superb Super Bowl 58 match-up with the San Francisco 49ers facing the Kansas City Chiefs, but who will hit the jackpot in Las Vegas? These games are decided on small margins - big plays here and there, and moments of magic proving the difference between the ultimate glory of lifting the Lombardi Trophy and the desperate despair of trudging off that confetti-laden field, knowing you have come so near yet remain so far. So will Brock Purdy play better than Patrick Mahomes? Can the Chiefs defence somehow slow down Christian McCaffrey, and which other players, tactics or coaching titbits do you need to watch out for during the big game? Let's take a look.. Their defence and running game continues to dominate, as despite having a generational talent in star quarterback Mahomes, those are the two big things that have got the defending champions back to the Super Bowl. Isiah Pacheco runs the ball as hard as anyone and, defensively, the most points they have allowed in a game all season is 27 - restricting Lamar Jackson, who was this week named the season's Most Valuable Player, and his Baltimore Ravens team to just 10 at home in the AFC Championship game proved they are an elite group. Their defence has kept them in games all season while the receivers struggled to catch passes, leaving Mahomes to sprinkle his magic when needed. So the final piece of the plan is keeping him upright and keeping San Francisco's disruptive defender Nick Bosa at arm's length.

Liverpool returned to the top of the table as they got back to winning ways against struggling Burnley in front of a club record league crowd at Anfield. Jurgen Klopp's side were looking to respond after last weekend's defeat by Arsenal, and having fallen a point behind Manchester City. They took the lead through Diogo Jota's header from a corner which Burnley keeper James Trafford failed to claim. The Clarets, who have been in the relegation zone for most of the season, levelled before half-time through Dara O'Shea's superb header before Luis Diaz restored the lead in the 52nd minute. Burnley had several chances to equalise before Darwin Nunez's header from Harvey Elliott's cross sealed the points. On a tetchy afternoon, both Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp and Burnley boss Vincent Kompany were booked by referee Tim Robinson for protesting after decisions went against their teams. Liverpool were without first-choice keeper Alisson because of illness but stand-in Caoimhin Kelleher made a fine save to deny David Datro Fofana an equaliser when the score was 2-1. The Reds, watched by a crowd of 59,896, had briefly been replaced at the top of the table after City's 2-0 win over Everton in the early kick-off. But Liverpool reclaimed their two-point advantage - albeit having played one game more than their nearest rivals - while Burnley remain 19th.

Kevin de Bruyne is back, Phil Foden is firing… and now Erling Haaland has found his shooting boots. So, how do you stop Manchester City? The defending champions have been building momentum for weeks but, until Saturday, they were doing it without any goals from the most prolific striker in the land. Haaland's wait was mostly down to the foot injury that sidelined him for most of December and January, but he had still gone 419 Premier League minutes without a goal and had endured a run of 17 efforts that did not find the net. That changed against Everton, when the Norwegian ended his worst scoring drought since moving to England in 2022 - and gave his side a crucial lead - in spectacular style. Haaland double sinks Everton as Man City keep up pressure For more than an hour at Etihad Stadium, Everton's defensive resilience frustrated City and meant Haaland was given few opportunities to find the right finish. Then, after 71 minutes during which he barely had a touch, the ball broke for him from a corner, and he did not hesitate before smashing it home. FULL STORY

Probably because it comes out of their pocket if its wrong. (So I'm told)

I wish the OP good luck, I am sure he did his research and there is a growing community of supporters to assist in such projects and its development. Personally, it's all still too new and the capital expenditure for some can be the non starter.If you have the funds are willing to "go for it" I wish you well and hope it turns out just as you expected. Many aspects for me are very much "too new" and not enough data.Besides which financially it would be a non starter anyway.Even if I had the funds its not something I would pursue at the low cost of electricity here against capital investment against my probable remaining lifespan. 😀

Niall Harbison and Soi Dog Foundation join forces for street dogs with mass spay/neuter project In a unified effort to transform the lives of Thailand’s street dogs, Niall Harbison and his organisation Happy Doggo have joined forces with the renowned Soi Dog Foundation on a largescale spay/neuter project which will see 2,000 dogs sterilised and vaccinated every single month. Designed to humanely reduce the overpopulation of street dogs, stem the spread of diseasen between them and enhance their overall quality of life, the project launched into action in the Southern province of Surat Thani on Tuesday (January 30). In the first day of operation, 47 dogs underwent spay/neuter surgery and received life-saving vaccinations against diseases including rabies, distemper and parvovirus. Carrying this momentum forward are two fully equipped mobile clinic teams who will move strategically around the province, humanely capturing then neutering and vaccinating street dogs before returning them safely to their territories. Together, the teams have the capacity to reach 90-100 street dogs a day – or over 20,000 a year – preventing an untold number of puppies from being born into short lives of suffering on the streets. “There are somewhere between 8 and 15 million street dogs in Thailand. Mass sterilisation really is the only way to fix this once and for all,” said Niall at the project launch. “We’ve been working towards this project for months, and I’m so happy to see it in action. Soi Dog Foundation’s vets, rescue officers and staff on the ground are just incredible. The amount of lives saved will be staggering,” he added. Based on the nearby island of Koh Samui, Niall has gained international notoriety for his work feeding, sterilising and treating street dogs, which he documents online. At the heart of his organisation Happy Doggo is a mission to fix the street dog problem on a global scale through sterilisation and emergency medical care. This mission is shared with the Phuket-based Soi Dog Foundation, who have been advocating for the welfare of street dogs and cats in Thailand and across Asia for over 20 years. Alongside rescue, treatment, adoption, education and community outreach initiatives, Soi Dog operates the largest spay/neuter and vaccination programme of its kind in the world, and last year became the first organisation in history to reach one million neutered and vaccinated animals. “It’s an absolute pleasure to partner with Niall and Happy Doggo to help spread the impact of this critical work even further and wider,” said Soi Dog Foundation CEO Louise Rose. “The more we join together and share experiences and expertise, the closer we move towards the day we see an end to the suffering of stray animals in Thailand, in Asia and beyond. Ultimately, this is what we’re all working towards,” she added.Neither Soi Dog Foundation nor Happy Doggo receive any government funding to carry out their work; both depend upon donations from animal lovers around the world who share their passion for improving the lives of homeless animals. The two organisations look forward to working closely together to make a lasting difference to the lives of street dogs in Thailand, reducing their suffering humanely and effectively. --- About Soi Dog Foundation Established in 2003 on the island of Phuket, Thailand, Soi Dog Foundation is Southeast Asia’s largest organisation helping stray animals. Its mission is to improve the welfare of dogs and cats in Asia, resulting in better lives for both the animal and human communities, to create a society without homeless animals and to ultimately end animal cruelty.

The organisation is dedicated to implementing effective, sustainable solutions that reduce the suffering of dogs and cats in Asia, runs entirely on donations and works efficiently so all donations are used to help animals as effectively as possible.

Hamzah Sheeraz is targeting a fight with Chris Eubank Jr or Liam Smith if he can beat Liam Williams on Saturday. The British middleweight faces the biggest test of his career at London's Copper Box Arena against the Welshman, who is a former world title challenger. Williams, 31, took issue with Sheeraz looking ahead to potential fights, saying on Thursday: "What is he talking about? "He hasn't beat me yet and he's not going to." Sheeraz, 24, is undefeated in 18 pro fights and refused to be drawn into any sort of back-and-forth with Williams at the top table in their pre-fight news conference. The Slough native said he was not looking past Williams but wanted to prove he was ready for the likes of Smith, Eubank Jr and reigning British champion Nathan Heaney by securing victory at the weekend. Williams' four defeats have come against Eubank Jr, Smith (twice) and former WBO champion Demetrius Andrade. Pressure is all on Clarke - Wardley Usyk missed birth of child training for postponed Fury fight WATCH: Sheeraz and British boxers in conversation with Lord Aleem He will be an underdog against Sheeraz, but said he had no intention of being an easy night's work. "Personally I think it's a bad mistake, bringing me in to get beat by this guy," Williams said. FULL STORY

Cristobal del Solar carded one of the lowest scores in the history of professional golf with a 13-under-par 57 in the Astara Championship. The Chilean made two eagles and nine birdies in the event in Colombia on the Korn Ferry Tour, the developmental circuit that sits below the PGA Tour. The 30-year-old shot his 57 on the Pacos course, the shortest on the tour and almost 9,000ft above sea level. Ireland's David Carey carded the only other 57 on a professional tour. That was at the Cervino Open in 2019 on the Alps Tour, the third tier in Europe below the European Tour. Jim Furyk's 58 at the Travelers Championship in 2016 is the lowest round on the PGA Tour. It was matched last year by Bryson DeChambeau in a LIV Golf event while Ryo Ishikawa and Kim Seong-hyeon have made 58s on the Japan Tour. Del Solar's round at the Bogota course - which sits at high altitude, where the ball flies about six per cent further because of the thinner air - is the best in a PGA Tour-sanctioned event. The world number 259 could have gone even lower but missed a 15-foot putt for birdie on the par-four 18th that meant he made par on his final three holes. STORY

England captain Jamie George expects to be "very emotional" when he leads out the team for the first time in a Six Nations match at Twickenham. George's reign as skipper began with victory in Rome, but he says walking out at a sold-out home of English rugby to face Wales will be "special". "It's huge. It's a dream come true," George told BBC Radio 5 Live. "Being at Twickenham, singing the anthem and that walkout will be a very emotional moment for me." George, who will win his 87th cap on Saturday, added: "I never thought I would be in this position." England were beaten in a World Cup warm-up game by Fiji in their last match at Twickenham, five months after slumping to their record home defeat against France in the Six Nations.

"Our recent record at Twickenham has been poor and we have been very outspoken about how we want Twickenham to be great again, so we have the responsibility to do that and what a privilege that is.

Football's lawmakers Ifab are to trial sin-binning players and issuing blue cards, it will be announced on Friday. Sin-bins have been used at grassroots level for dissent but their use could be extended to cynical fouls as part of a trial. A player would spend 10 minutes in the technical area after being given a blue card by a referee. It is not yet clear when the trial will start and which competitions it will involve. The Premier League has already ruled out being part of the initial roll-out of any trial, while football's world governing body Fifa said "reports of the so-called 'blue card' at elite levels of football are incorrect and premature". It added: "Any such trials, if implemented, should be limited to testing in a responsible manner at lower levels, a position that Fifa intends to reiterate when this agenda item is discussed at the Ifab AGM [annual general meeting] on 1 March." Ifab (International Football Association Board) is scheduled to hold its annual meeting at Loch Lomond in Scotland in March and sin-bin trials at higher levels of the game are listed as a topic for discussion in the agenda. Sin-bin trial plan recommended for professional games Sin-bins were piloted in 2018-19, with the Football Association reporting a 38% total reduction in dissent across 31 leagues. They were introduced across all levels of grassroots football from the 2019-20 season in an attempt to improve levels of respect and fair play. FULL STORY

The future of the Red Bull Formula 1 team is in the spotlight as their boss Christian Horner faces an internal hearing on Friday into a complaint of inappropriate behaviour. The 50-year-old, who has led Red Bull Racing since its founding in 2005, will be quizzed by an independent lawyer on the complaint. Parent company Red Bull Gmbh, based near Salzburg in Austria, said on Monday that it is taking the allegations against Horner "extremely seriously". The team has not confirmed the nature of the complaint made against Horner but BBC Sport understands the claims relate to an allegation of inappropriate and controlling behaviour. Horner has denied the allegations in a comment to Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf, external as well as inside an F1 Commission meeting of team bosses, governing body the FIA and commercial rights holders F1 earlier this week. Horner's future has been the subject of intense speculation in the world of F1 in the days since the allegations emerged on Monday. Many insiders who have discussed the situation with BBC Sport do not expect him to survive in his role. However, Horner is a powerful and influential man, both inside Red Bull and within F1, and it remains to be seen whether this will lead to his downfall. FULL STORY

I was the reverse, didnt give a sht, turned 60 and felt it was time to sort that out before it was too late. Never looked back and no way would I stop now. Each to their own, but I feel its more important as you age than it ever was. Adjust your routine according to your lifestyle sure, but dont stop regular exercise or resistance training.

This is the stuff I found to be the best, beat anything else hands down. Bought it in Thaiwatsadu but probably available easily elsewhere
