The guidelines for dealing with possible concussion operate under the tagline of 'if in doubt sit them out'. It means that if a player has suspected concussion at any level of football "they must be immediately removed from the pitch, whether in training or match play". The FA states that the reason for immediate action in removing players from the pitch is because treatment delays "could risk incomplete recovery of the brain".

Liverpool may have some justification in questioning an early decision from the referee as Manchester United took a 1-0 lead in the first minute of today's game at Anfield. Bryan Mbeumo struck an early opener for the visitors, but if you watch the goal footage back, as per Sky Sports' video in the X post below, you can see that a clash of heads left Alexis Mac Allister down on the pitch.

Birthdays are always a big deal in my family we love any excuse to spend time together. My dad's 60th, in May last year, was a particularly special one, as we had family travelling from Germany to Eastbourne, in East Sussex, to celebrate. I spent the first part of the morning with my sisters at my mum's nearby. She has a birthday in the same week, so we were celebrating hers first.
