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.Alan Stubbs is to see another specialist today about the ankle trouble which has forced the Bolton defender to miss the last three games.
Roy McFarland, the Bolton manager, had hoped that Stubbs would be fit to play at Southampton on Saturday, but reported that the ankle was still swollen and sore.
"The tissue around the Achilles has settled down quite well but the soreness is a bit of a worry," McFarland said.
Better news for Manchester United, whose midfielder Roy Keane is swimming his way back to fitness and on target for a return in the Republic of Ireland's European Championship play-off game with the Netherlands at Anfield on 13 December.
Keane is on a hydrotherapy course to build up his strength after his second hernia operation this year and is optimistic of being fit for the play-off. He expects to resume to full training within a fortnight.
