Roy Keane amongst mourners at funeral of Celtic legend
Roy Keane was among mourners who paid their respects to late Celtic legend John Clarke at his funeral last week. The former defender passed away two weeks ago at the age of 84. Clarke made 300 appearances for the Scottish football club, and was part of the team that became the first British club to win the European Cup in 1967.

Paying tribute to the soccer player, Celtic manager Brendan Rogers said: 'John was instrumental in delivering our greatest day and his achievement is forever etched in Celtic's proud history.' The funeral of the Scotsman took place at St Mary's Church in the Calton area of Glasgow with the funeral cortege passing the club stadium following the service. Among the mourners was Roy Keane and Ian Wright, who both played stints with Celtic in their later football years. Corkman Keane made ten appearances for the club between 2005 and 2006 before his retirement in 2006. Keane and Wright were praised for attending the funeral, with one social media user branding it a 'classy gesture.'

'There will never be another European cup winner sorting kits out. God speed John.' There were a number of Portuguese flags at the church as a homage to both the European Cup win and to the late Liverpool forward Diogo Jota and his brother, Andre Silva.

Diogo's wife and family were joined by Liverpool players for the funeral of the brothers in Portugal. The coffins of Jota and Silva were carried into Igreja Matriz de Gondomar church in the town of Gondomar near Porto on Saturday morning, followed by mourners. A church bell tolled and crowds applauded as the brothers' coffins were carried into the church, followed by mourners, some with their arms around each other. Liverpool manager Arne Slot, captain Virgin Van Dijk and teammates including Andy Robertson, Conor Bradley, Cody Gakpo, Darwin Nunez and Joe Gomez were seen arriving to the church.

Irish champion jockey's admission as he faces ban
Colin Keane admits he has nobody to blame but himself as he looks set to face a suspension for seemingly breaking the UK's whip rules at Sandown on Friday. The Irish champion jockey was aboard Windlord in the Listed Gala Stakes for his principal backers Juddmonte when it seemed he used his whip eight times during a tight finish – a number that's allowed in Ireland but not in Britain. With the UK's Flat racing rules capping the use at six, his incident is set for review by the British Horseracing Authority's whip committee next week, which could lead to a potential 14-day ban. Such disciplinary action might put Keane's chance to ride Field Of Gold in the Sussex Stakes at Goodwood at risk, depending on the timing of any suspension. "I'd imagine (I will be suspended) but it's my own fault," Keane admitted. "I'm so used to eight (strikes) as it is at home, I just have to abide by the rules here. "That's the only way I can put it, I know six is the amount over here but when I was in a ding-dong battle, I suppose it just went out of my head unfortunately. "It's unfortunate but it's my own fault."
