Celtic hero 'at war' with Inbetweeners star Jay Buckley as he swears revenge in podcast feud
Buckey and Scottish wife Clair share a podcast studio with former Hoops keeper Hart and things have escalated Inbetweeners star Jay Buckley has declared war on former Celtic goalkeeper Joe Hart for damaging his podcast set. The actor, who played Jay Cartwright on the hit comedy series between 2008 and 2011, as well as two films, now hosts two successful pod with Scottish wife Clair - In Sickness and in Health along with At Home with the Buckleys. And it's on the latter that he's called out ex-Man City and England star Hart. Since hanging up his gloves at Parkhead, Hart has been embarking on media work and films his own pod, Footballer Unfiltered, in the same studio as the pair. Hart was jokingly dug out back in May for "wrecking the set" and the light hearted feud has continued ever since with the Buckey's demanding that Hart apologies. That's finally happened, but has only seen the situation escalate after Hart volleyed a Jay teddy across the studio, which Buckley isn't taking lying down. "We're at war by the way. Now we share a studio space with the goalkeeper Joe Hart. Is he still playing?" Buckley asked. Wife Clair them chimed in: "Surely not. Not at that age!" Then Buckley continued: "He did break our set a little bit. We called him out on it and he sent us a little video - I think it's an apology video. "It's supposed to be an apology video and he picks up our little Jay doll there and boots it across the room very hard and very aggressively. "I just thought 'let's go' and I'll tell you something Joe Hart, if you kicked like that when you were at Man City then Pep (Guardiola) might not have dropped you. "War has been declared and we will keep you updated. "We're going to brainstorm and put some thought and money into this. "Maybe just as a joke we arrange someone to tie him up and throw him into the back of a van or something like as a joke."

Familiar Shelbourne failings allow Bobby Burns to rescue point for Galway
But Joey O'Brien and his players will travel home from Galway wondering how they failed to emerge from Eamonn Deacy Park with a victory that would put a badly-needed smile on faces. Damien Duff's stand-in will take comfort from aspects of their display considering what's coming around the corner in European competition. He is set to be given the opportunity to lead the Reds into that campaign once he gets the relevant sign-off from authorities and he does appear to be getting a response from the group. The reality, though, is that they have drawn 11 of their 24 matches this season because of an inability to be clinical in both boxes. In a game where their goalscorer Mipo Odubeko could easily have bagged a hat-trick, a late fumble from Conor Kearns allowed Galway United substitute Bobby Burns to rescue a point that looked unlikely for reasonable spells of this encounter. John Caulfield will be satisfied with that after a tricky week highlighted by the loss of top scorer Moses Dyer to a big-money deal in Cambodia. Mind you, that drama pales in comparison to what the visitors have been going through. At least Dyer's release clause had given United some preparation for what might be around the corner. Shelbourne had finished on a high in Waterford on Monday, with the opposing boss John Coleman admitting his players were blessed to survive a late rally. They brought the momentum into the opening quarter here, although O'Brien did opt to conserve the energy levels of several key players with Mark Coyle, Paddy Barrett and Evan Caffrey amongst those to drop to the bench. Linfield are around the corner, with the Irish League champions represented by a delegation that included manager David Healy. They might face different personnel in their eagerly-anticipated Champions League tie, but they did see a side that looks to have responded quite well to the drama of the last week. Healy will certainly have noted that they had a few difficult moments from crosses and defensive set pieces, an area where Galway are potent at asking questions. But there was a spark in attacking areas, the best example being the danger presented by Odubeko, the winter arrival who has failed to live up to expectations. His contribution here showed why he can both excite and frustrate. Odubeko broke the deadlock with a precise first half header from a JJ Lunney cross, a moment that the front man would have enjoyed as it allowed him to forget the anguish of a brilliant Garry Buckley goalline clearance that had denied him just beforehand. ADVERTISEMENT Learn more But from there, his contribution was a highlight reel of thrills and spills. He was a constant threat on the counter, with Shels going more direct on occasion to bring out the best in the ex-Man City and Manchester United attacker. He kept finding time and space but, when it came to the crunch, his finishing consistently let him down. O'Brien's exasperation on the sideline was evident, especially when the theme continued into the second half. Odubeko was Shelbourne's best route to putting the outcome beyond doubt, but also the reason they were unable to do so. United were off colour for the opening half hour, with the unavailability of Patrick Hickey adding to the natural loss of Dyer. Galway tried new arrival Malcolm Shaw in place of Dyer and he was busy while showing signs of lacking match sharpness. The natives did have a decent spell before the interval but Caulfield changed to a back four in the second half, a recognition of the need to be more compact in midfield where Harry Wood was enjoying a lot of freedom. However, Shels continued to create the better chances, with Odubeko's evening taking a tragicomic turn with the 22-year-old botching a gilt-edged opportunity from a clever free before looping a header wide under no pressure. It left Shels with no margin for error and that point was proven when Kearns lost control and O'Brien saw two points slip away. Boyd was inches away from a stoppage-time winner but the draw specialists were condemned to a familiar fate. Shelbourne: Kearns, Gannon, Temple, Ledwidge; Kelly (Caffrey 63), Wood (McInroy 63) , Lunney (Coyle 75), Chapman (Coote 89), Norris (Wilson 63); Boyd, Odubeko (Martin 90).

Jeremy Vine slammed over cycling videos by Tour de France commentator
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) JEREMY Vine has been accused of setting back the cause of cycling with his online clips highlighting bad driving. The broadcaster put the 'fear of God' into anyone thinking of making the switch from four wheels to two, according to Tour de France commentator Ned Boulting. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 1 Jeremy Vine has been accused of setting back the cause of cycling with his online clips highlighting bad driving Keen cyclist Jeremy, 59, has spent years uploading footage of dangerous drivers he encounters on his London commute — but is giving it up to escape trolls. ITV's Ned said his intentions were good, that he was usually right and he was backed by statistics — but that he was harming cycling. He wrote: "Jeremy is almost always right. What he says, 99 times out of a hundred, is correct. "He flags up dangerous driving, and explains why it is threatening to a person riding a bike. The statistics, of course, make his case for him. "But, and, to my mind this is a serious but: just because he's right, it doesn't mean that he's right. "Respectfully to Jeremy, whose intentions were impeccable, I think he got it wrong. Here's why. "Cycling is fun. It is liberating. It is a tremendous, life-changing activity. It puts a smile on your face. Jeremy's videos, frankly, would put the fear of God into you." He continued: "If you were vaguely considering making the 'modal shift' as active travel geeks refer to ditching the car in favour of a bike (something I have literally done), would Jeremy's polemical videos persuade you, or put you off? Would they be more or less likely to encourage you? "My experience of criss-crossing London by bike over the last twenty years is far more benign than Jeremy's, or at least the edited version of Jeremy's that he presents online. "I tend to ride on back routes where I can, have got to know the safer roads, and, by and large, I don't experience the extreme levels of danger that are presented, so frequently, in Jeremy's videos. "That's not so say it doesn't happen, but not as often as his presentation suggests." This comes after football thug Joey Barton apologised to Jeremy and agreed to pay him £75,000 after branding him a "bike nonce". BBC Radio 2 host Jeremy had sued ex-Man City, Newcastle and QPR midfielder Barton for libel and harassment over the slew of vile posts. The pair had been set for a High Court showdown but Barton revealed he has agreed to pay Vine £75,000 in damages and costs to settle the case. He also apologised to the broadcaster for the "untrue" posts, which also included branding Vine a "paedo defender". Barton said: "I have agreed not to make the same allegations again about Mr Vine and I apologise to him for the distress he has suffered."
