JUDE BELLINGHAM could face 12 MATCHES on the sidelines following his red card for an X-rated rant towards the referee.

ReutersBellingham claims the incident was a ‘miscommunication’[/caption]
The referee’s report claimed that Bellingham told Munuera “f*** you”, resulting in his dismissal.
However, Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti claimed after the match that Bellingham had used the term “f*** off” instead, suggesting it is a phrase rather than a personal attack.
He said: “I think the referee did not understand Jude Bellingham’s English. He said f*** off, not f*** you… that’s way different.
“I won’t talk more about the referee as I want to be on the bench next week.”
One person who won’t be on the bench next week is Bellingham, unless of course his red card is overturned.
If not, Bellingham could see himself banned for up to 12 GAMES.
The Spanish FA’s disciplinary Code tells that any player guilty of “insulting, offending, or addressing the main referee, assistants, fourth official, directors, or sports authorities in offensive terms or attitudes” will be punished with a suspension of four to 12 matches.
That astonishing ban means that, at the very least, Bellingham will miss Madrid’s La Liga bouts with Girona, Betis, and Rayo Vallecano, as well as the first leg of their Copa del Rey semi-final against Real Sociedad.
Should the ban extend to the full 12 matches, Bellingham will then miss the majority of the remainder of the season.

It’s yet to be confirmed how long Bellingham will be suspended.
But the England superstar has already apologised to his teammates for his red card, shutting down the talk about the misunderstanding at the same time.
Seemingly hinting at an immediate return to action, he wrote: “Enough said about the misunderstanding.
“Just wanted to apologise again for leaving my teammates in such a tough position and thank the fans for their support and understanding.
“See you on Wednesday at home”.
Bellingham defended himself while speaking to the media after the game on Saturday too.
He told reporters: “It’s clear that it was a mistake and there is a miscommunication. I remember the incident very well but I’ve also seen the video and the video doesn’t match the report.
“I don’t want to go too much in detail about what was said but it’s like a expression like ‘joder’.
“I hope that the footage review can show that is not the same as the report and going forward that the federation can keep it under consideration because it’s huge evidence.
“Obviously we can’t change the result but I think that going forward there will be a change.”
He continued: “There was no insult. You can see clearly in the video. I remember the incident very well. It was an expression to myself not directed towards the referee.
“But obviously there was a misunderstanding of what he believes I said to him. It wasn’t an insult at all.”

THE world’s biggest waterpark is in Dubai and it has some record-breaking attractions.
Aquaventure Waterpark is huge with over 105 slides and attractions, as well as a private beach.

Found on the very edge of the Palm Jumeirah, it has everything you need for a day out from pools and slides to relaxing cafes.
Starting with the attractions, the most terrifying has to be the Odyssey of Terror which is the world’s tallest waterslide.
Another is The Black Out slide which is 157 feet tall with a near-vertical drop body slide – the highest of its kind in the Middle East.
Leap of Faith is not for the faint-hearted as it has a 60-foot slide that goes through a lagoon filled with sharks.
But the terrifying slides didn’t put one traveller off.
They said: “The best water theme park in the world! The sheer number of water slides on offer is unbelievable.”
According to TripAdvisor, the Aquaventure Waterpark is voted the top activity to do in Dubai.
One reviewer said: “This is the best waterpark in the world and my 4.5yo daughter had the time of her life.”
In terms of the attractions, there’s the opportunity to meet some wildlife up close and personal.
For anyone wanting to explore the park underwater, you can snorkel and scuba dive and cross paths with 65,000 marine species including sharks and sting rays.

Aquaventure Waterpark is also home to the world’s largest dedicated kids zone with a lagoon full of six-lane racer slides and a children’s tornado slide as well as lots of pools and fountains.
For anyone wanting a break from the adrenaline there’s also a chance to relax.
From the private beach, enjoy the Dubai skyline while you sip on a cocktail.
Or, chill around the lazy river and take in a view of the park from your comfortable inflatable dingy.
Also around the park are private cabanas at an extra cost of AED 900 (£197).
Included with a private cabana is seating for six guests, butler service, cold towels, complimentary water, and a fruit platter.

A day pass ticket costs 330 UAE (£72.12). But for anyone celebrating a birthday, if you register before your arrival, then you can enter the park completely free.
And you don’t have to visit the park on your birthday, the free entry is valid six days before or after too.
Anyone using a birthday offer for their entry can also bring two friends who can get 20 per cent off their full price ticket.
Or if you are staying at either the Atlantic The Royal, Atlantis The Palm, or Rixos The Palm Hotel & Suites Dubai, you will get free access to Aquaventure every day of your stay.

GLADIATOR 2 star Paul Mescal was towered over by a huge bodyguard as he walked through London’s West End.
The actor, 29, who is currently starring in A Streetcar Named Desire at the Noel Coward Theatre, probably could have passed unnoticed in his low-key outfit.

But his burly minder, who wore a T-shirt reading, “I would like to apologize to anyone I have not yet offended”, ensured he stood out from the crowd.
Mescal wore a black cap and a grey trench coat over a red and yellow striped T-shirt.
He finished his outfit with ankle-length trousers and black Adidas trainers.
The hunk is now a global superstar after landing the lead role in Ridley Scott’s Roman epic.
But the Irishman is doing his best to keep his feet on the ground.
In 2023 he earned his first Oscar nomination for the drama Aftersun, which tracks a young father and his daughter on a holiday together.
While he missed out on the gong that year, the actor did become a Hollywood A-lister thanks to his role in Gladiator.
Starring alongside Denzel Washington and Pedro Pascal, Paul played Lucius, the secret son of Russell Crowe‘s character from the original movie.
He also teamed up with Andrew Scott in the tragic film, All Of Us Strangers, which followed a man as he struggles with loneliness.
Paul is now performing as Stanley Kowalski in the Tennessee Williams play, which is currently running until 22 February.
The star is currently believed to be dating singer Gracie Abrams, who shot to fame last year with the release of her album, The Secret Of Us, and appearing on dates of Taylor Swift‘s Eras Tour.
The couple have kept their relationship out of the spotlight, but are believed to have started dating last summer.
However, the Irish star was spotted ‘having an upsetting conversation’ with Gracie during a meal together in Newington Green at the end of January.

Amad is the club’s joint top goalscorer alongside Bruno Fernandes with nine goals in all competitions, while only the club captain, with 12, has provided more assists than Amad (7).
He is expected to miss the rest of the season after undergoing knee surgery.

“The surgery went perfectly. Now it’s time to give it my all, with heart and soul, in the rehabilitation process.”

A YOUNG woman who lives in a 1970s ‘hippie shack’ in the woods has candidly clapped back at trolls who criticise her lifestyle.
Kai, who is based in Canada, lives in a house built on the back of a truck.
TikTok/@the_ugly_trucklingA savvy woman has revealed that she lives in a tiny hippie shack in the middle of the woods[/caption]
TikTok/@the_ugly_trucklingBut whilst Kai loves her frugal lifestyle, mean trolls have accused her of being a ‘squatter’[/caption]
But whilst the content creator loves living in the middle of nowhere, she has been brutally targeted by trolls who call her a ‘squatter’ and accuse her of ‘normalising homelessness’.
Keen to clap back to the haters, the influencer, who has over one million followers on TikTok, filmed herself outside her unique home and said: “I’m not a squatter, I actually pay to be out here – pretty cheap rent, but I am paying to be here regardless.
“If you’re new here, hi I’m Kai and I live in this house truck out in the woods.
“I think a lot of people assume that I’m squatting or somehow not allowed to be out here, but actually this is privately owned land, I do pay rent to be here, I have a great relationship with my landlord and I get a whole acre of space all to myself for pretty cheap.”
Inside Kai’s unique home, you’ll find an L-shaped couch in the living room that expands into enough space for a guest bed.
Not only that, but there’s also a kitchen area with all of the amenities anyone would need – including cabinets, stove, fridge spice rack and a sink, which features a handmade faucet.
She even has a dining area, which doubles as an office space, as well as a bedroom loft space.
And in another video, the brunette beauty replied to another mean comment that accused her of ‘normalising homeless’.
To this, she asked: “How about normalising living within your means?”
The frugal woman then explained: “This person thinks I’m normalising homelessness – I mean, I don’t know about you, but this unit right here kind of looks like a house to me.”
But whilst haters have often disagreed with Kai’s way of living, her TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @the_ugly_truckling, has clearly reached the right audience.
The short video has quickly raked up 120,200 likes and many eagerly flocked to the comments to praise her tiny home on wheels.
The rise of tiny homes
By Jonathan Rolande
Property expert Jonathan Rolande told Fabulous: The reason we are seeing more creative ways of finding a home: super-high property prices and rents. Younger people are remaining in the family home later in life to avoid paying high prices and to save for a deposit. With increasingly busy lives, staying within a larger family group makes sense, chores such as gardening and housework can be shared.
Garages are rarely used for their intended purpose as cars are far more reliable and less prone to rust and so are perfectly happy outside. On the other hand, the amount of property space per person has been shrinking – converting a garage can make great sense.
Things to consider. (the boring stuff)
Usually easier than building from scratch but still a lot to do to turn a garage in to a habitable space.
You’ll need to check if you need planning (more likely to be required if the garage is detached).
Building Regulations stipulate many things to make homes safe and secure. Consider
Walls, are they cavity?
Roof height
Windows
How will you get plumbing, electrics and drainage connected
Insulation – it will be cold!
Fire safety
Damp proofing
Also consider if, by converting, you are adding or deducting value from the main home. Garages can add value in busy urban areas where parking is limited.
One person said: “That is the cutest tiny home.”
Another added: “That’s awesome.”
Love that concept! I wouldn’t mind trying it myself

A third commented: “Super cool.”
Whilst someone else chimed in: “If you read this, bless you. Keep leading the way. Disregard the looser commenters.”
At the same time, another user wrote: “Love that concept! I wouldn’t mind trying it myself!”

Are tiny homes legal in the UK?
TINY houses can be UK regardless of whether they are on a trailer base or not. The legality of tiny houses is all to do with where it is and what you use it for.
If you want to put your tiny house in the back garden of the home that you own, and the overall size of your tiny house does not exceed 19.8m x 6.7m (65ft x 22ft), then good news! You do not require planning permission.
Tiny houses that fit within these dimensions and are constructed on trailer bases are legally classified as caravans, which means you can legally park them within the curtilage of your home without planning permission.
If this is your plan, then it is a legal requirement that you only use the tiny house as additional living space, like an office, a gym, or a studio, but you cannot rent out the space to a tenant.
For those of you who live on farmland, what is defined as curtilage can be complicated. In these cases, and under any circumstances where you are unsure, we recommend that you speak to your local planning officer.
You can put a tiny house on your land as a temporary structure for 28 days, but for any longer than this we recommend that you speak to your local planning officer as different permissions will be required.

WHEN new mum Nikita Hughes found a lump in her breast after giving birth, doctors told her it was nothing more than an abscess.
The 22-year-old had welcomed her daughter Vienna into the world just eight weeks earlier in May 2023 and she was caught up in the joy of being a parent.
Nikita Hughes was given months to live just weeks after giving birth to her daughterWNSThe new mum with little ViennaWNS
Nikita was given antibiotics, but when the growth, believed to be made up of harmless pus, failed to go she was sent to a breast clinic for a scan.
Nothing could have prepared her for the news she received.
Nikita, from Port Talbot, Wales, believes she is one of only two people in the UK who has this form of the disease.
She says: “Becoming a mum was a dream come true for me. It was all I’d wanted since I was a little girl.
“I will never forget sitting in a room with my mum and Vienna as the doctors delivered the bombshell that I had cancer.
“I just sobbed with complete disbelief.”
The mum had a gruelling operation in October 2023, during which surgeons removed a 6in (15cm) tumour from her rib cage.
Part of her chest was removed and a new one constructed with muscle from her back.
She also opted for a double mastectomy to remove both breasts and was given six weeks of proton beam therapy.
Initially, the cancer responded to treatment and after a scan in May 2024, Nikita was given the all-clear.
She was even well enough to go on a holiday with her family to Turkey, in July 2024, enjoying every moment with little Vienna and her partner, Shaun Williams, 24.
“Paddling in the sea with my girl felt like a different world,” Nikita says.
“It all felt so precious and wonderful and I was just so grateful to be alive.”
But in September 2024, Nikita developed pain and swelling in her legs, as well as a nasty cough.
After a CT scan, doctors revealed that her sarcoma had spread to her lungs and there was nothing more they could do.
It breaks my heart to know my daughter will grow up without her mummy so I have to give her all the love I can now
Nikita Hughes
“I’d only just started being the mummy I wanted to be,” Nikita says.
“Now it was all being snatched away. I was told there was no cure. I was dying.
“All I could think about was how I would never see Vienna grow up into a woman.
“I am going to miss it all. It’s indescribable the pain I feel.”
But Nikita is determined to make the most of every second she has left.
She even organised a ‘f*** you cancer party’ in defiance of her illness.

‘Becoming a mum was all I’d wanted since I was a little girl,’ Nikita saysWNS
“I may be dying but I am determined to go out with a bang,” she adds.
“I am so angry at this disease for stealing me away from my daughter.
“My party was my way of saying that I won’t go down without a fight.
“I invited 50 friends and family. There was so much love and joy in the room despite the pain.
“There were so many tears but loads of laughs too. We had balloons, a singer and a DJ.
“I had a huge pink poster featuring my face and the words ‘F*** you cancer party, Princess Nikita’.”
“It may be my last party so I was determined to enjoy every minute of it.
“It meant so much to have all the people I love there.”
MONTHS LEFT TO LIVE
Nikita has been told that she has around 16 months left to live with chemotherapy – or just six months without treatment.
“Now all that matters is making memories with Vienna and Shaun and my family,” she says.
“Vienna is 20 months old now and loves playing in the park with Peppa Pig.
“When I’m with her, I smother her with kisses and cuddles. Every moment is so precious.
“It breaks my heart to know she will grow up without her mummy so I have to give her all the love I can now.
“It feels bitterly unfair. But my gosh, my beautiful girl will know she was so loved.”
You can donate to the family’s GoFundMe page to help pay for “special memories and trips” here.

The symptoms of sarcoma cancer
The most common symptom of soft tissue sarcoma is a lump somewhere on the body.
But this doesn’t necessarily mean cancer – there are all sorts of reasons for lumps and swellings, but it must always be checked by a GP.
The lump is usually found deep under the skin and might be felt before it can be seen.
The lump is usually solid to the touch, painless and hard to move around under the skin.
It will continue to grow and as it does, it can become painful.
Other symptoms depend on where in the body the lump is.
These can include:
Tummy pain and constipation if there is a sarcoma near the tummy
A cough that does not go away if there is a sarcoma near the lungs

ARNE SLOT has vowed to “act differently” after he was charged by the FA over his behaviour at the end of the Everton match.
The Liverpool boss received a red card after shaking referee Michael Oliver’s hand in an aggressive manner while talking to him after the final whistle.

ReutersCurtis Jones and Abdoulaye Doucoure were sent off for their roles in sparking a melee[/caption]
Slot was charged after allegedly “acting in an improper manner and/or used insulting and/or abusive words and/or behaviour towards the referee”.
He has promised to change his behaviour following the incident, suggesting he will calm himself down before speaking to referees in future.
Slot told Sky Sports: “I hope next time I will act differently.
“The best thing to do is always go inside and calm down and then talk to the referee if you want to.”
Slot, 46, has until Wednesday to respond to the FA charge so he was on the touchline for Wolves’ visit to Anfield.
The FA website initially shared an update stating Slot would be banned for two games, but it was later taken down as it is understood Oliver’s post-match report still needs to be reviewed.
Liverpool and Everton were both charged by the FA too for failing to control their players.
Curtis Jones received a second yellow card for his clash with Abdoulaye Doucoure, who was also sent off, after the Everton star goaded the travelling fans at full-time.
Players, coaches, stewards and police rushed over to diffuse the situation but it only sparked a bigger melee.
