Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.George Graham made his first addition to the Leeds United staff last night when he named David O'Leary as assistant manager, writes Phil Shaw. O'Leary, 38, served under Graham at Arsenal for eight years before joining Leeds as a player in 1993.
Injury restricted his appearances with the Elland Road club to 10, but he now returns in place of Howard Wilkinson's deputy, Mick Hennigan.
Graeme LeSaux's bid for a quick comeback for Blackburn Rovers hit a snag last night. The England left-back made a return to action after a nine- month layoff when he turned out for the reserve team. However, Le Saux was obviously still feeling the right ankle he broke and dislocated last December.
LeSaux tried not to use the foot and winced in pain when he pulled down a driven cross just before the hour. LeSaux's confidence was affected by that moment of doubt after an impressive opening spell.
