July 2025: What We Covered This Month
Welcome to the July 2025 archive. In just four posts we hit the biggest football buzz, a fresh face at Manchester United, a stunning rugby performance, and a must‑watch action movie. Grab a coffee, and let’s recap what mattered most.
Football: Fans, Arrests and New Talent
Our first story broke down police data showing Manchester United supporters topped the list for football‑related arrests in the 2024‑25 season. Although overall arrests fell, the numbers for United fans stayed high, while West Ham fans led the banning‑order charts and Aston Villa saw a sharp rise in incidents. The takeaway? Crowd control remains a challenge for the Premier League, and clubs need to keep dialogue open with police and supporters.
Shortly after, we reported on Diego Leon, the 18‑year‑old Paraguayan defender who signed for Manchester United. Leon already has 33 senior games and four goals under his belt, and he impressed in a friendly before heading to the US pre‑season tour. Fans are excited, and the club’s coaching staff say they’ll give him time to settle in. If you’re tracking United’s long‑term plans, Leon is a name to watch.
Rugby, Movies and More
On the rugby front, Duhan van der Merwe turned the British and Irish Lions into a try‑scoring machine with a hat‑trick in a 48‑0 romp over the Australia‑New Zealand Invitational XV in Adelaide. Eight tries in total highlighted the Lions’ attacking firepower, setting a confident tone ahead of the Test series against Australia.
Switching gears to the entertainment world, we highlighted the Black Belt Magazine pick for its Movie Weekend – the martial‑arts thriller “Enter the Fire.” The film’s gritty fight choreography and free streaming on Pluto TV make it a solid weekend binge for action fans. It’s a good reminder that quality martial‑arts cinema still pops up in unexpected places.
