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.Chelsea captain John Terry has admitted that the guard of honour Liverpool are expected to give the Blues at Stamford Bridge will be "very uncomfortable".
Chelsea won the Premier League title last weekend for the first time in five years and the Reds will clap Terry's side onto the Stamford Bridge pitch just before kick-off.
But Terry admitted he is not overly keen on the practice which will leave him uncomfortable because of the rivalry and respect that exists between the players of the two clubs.
"Very uncomfortable actually," Terry told Fox Sports when asked about the tradition.
"Because they're fellow professionals and fellow peers, it seems a bit strange for them to be standing out. I think both sides will be a bit uncomfortable.
"They're a very good side, people like Stevie G (Steve Gerrard) I have a lot of respect for. It just wouldn't seem right if I'm honest.
"But if it's been instructed to them we'll accept it because we're very proud of what we've achieved but with that same token not being too ungrateful."
