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.

Player to watch

Kevin Doyle. The striker had no support in terms of goals, which he must hope that Steven Fletcher and Stephen Hunt can provide.

Squad worries

Scoring only 32 goals, fewer than all the relegated teams, shows where the deficiencies were.

Manager speak

From a shambles at Sunderland to Roy Keane in Saipan, Mick McCarthy has seen and heard it all and come back for more.

Story of the summer

Aside from commentating on the World Cup, McCarthy was also busy back at home as Wolves look to build on last season’s fine display.

Last season 15 th

Eight home defeats but nicked some away wins.

This season 17th

May battle it out with Wigan for the last relegation spot.
