The Brazilian team that Pele played for has been relegated for the first time.

Dana White throws out bougie stationary bikes over criticism about a conspiracy loon
In a recent episode of Von’s “This Past Weekend” podcast, he told White that after he interviewed presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., some sponsors demanded that the episode be taken down.
White was surprised, asking, “What’s wrong with him?”
“Nothing,” Von responded.
White said that he has never met Kennedy, but considered him a “smart guy” and a “Democrat with common sense.”
Kennedy dropped his Democratic primary bid in October and is now running as an independent.
White was also curious about which sponsors demanded the takedown. Von named Peloton.
“Peloton sells stationary bikes, and they’ve got a problem with Robert f—ing Kennedy,” White remarked with indignation. “F— you, Peloton.”
To prove that he’s a man of his word, White later shared an Instagram story from a UFC gym showing the Echelon bikes that replaced Peloton machines.
The Carlisle United rumour mill is going crazy tonight, saying that we’ve signed Luke Armstrong. He can’t officially move until the January transfer window opens (unless he was released from his old contract, which seems unlikely), but it is supposedly a done deal. He has a proven record of scoring against Carlisle, let’s hope he can score for us as well.
This suggests that there is some real money at Carlisle now, since Harrogate were asking for £500,000 in the Summer, and we have managed to offer him a better deal than Wrecsam who were favourites to sign him.
We’ll see what else happens in January, especially as big teams are seriously looking at Jarred Branthwaite playing for Everton and 10% of the transfer fee goes to Carlisle as he came out of our youth academy.

banners bearing Ataturk’s words “Peace at home, peace in the world”, which the Saudi authorities would not allow
I don’t think it was the slogan of peace which was the problem (despite Al Saud being completely complicit in the genocide and second nakba attempts) so much as the secularising nationalism. That, rather than indiscriminate murder, directly contravenes Al Saud’s policy.
