In the away end of the City Ground on Sunday, every Tottenham Hotspur supporter was given a free scarf by the club. For at least one Spurs supporter, external, the knitwear was most useful for shielding their eyes from another dismal display by their team.

In 2016, the legendary Japanese filmmaker Hayao Miyazaki was shown a bizarre AI-generated video of a misshapen human body crawling across a floor. Miyazaki declared himself "utterly disgusted" by the technology demo, which he considered an "insult to life itself."

The signs that this might wind up embarrassing for all involved were early and public, but the speed with which that has proved out is astonishing all the same.
The kit, which combines a white base with black sleeves and neon yellow detailing, was worn for the first time in Saturday's 2-0 Bundesliga win over Heidenheim. But instead of excitement, its debut was met with anger in the stands and online. Fans unfurled banners blasting it as the cruelest jersey in the league while chants of We want black and yellow jerseys rang out before kick-off, a pointed reminder of the club's traditional colours.
Some signings are better received by fans than others, as is well known, but it is questionable whether any new addition has been at the end of such an outpouring of anger as Dynamo Kyiv's acquisition of Vladislav Blanuta.
