Some United fans were already angry - as they reckoned he should not have been allowed to return on the field at Old Trafford. And they were even more annoyed when Tevez's dazzling display was accompanied by a surprising choice of tune over the tannoy system.

Tevez was, notoriously, a United player from 2007-09. But to many fans he soured his stay beyond redemption with a go-or-stay saga - ending when his advisors revealed he no longer wanted to play for Alex Ferguson's team. Instead he joined fast-rising neighbours Manchester City - for a successful four-year stint.

But the TV presenter made a mess of it - after inexplicably trying to save it with his legs and ending up in a tangle. And if McGuinness was honest he should at that stage have pleaded "Take Me Out" - of goal. However, although it was too late for England, it wasn't too late for United supporters to vent their ire over Tevez - and Liverpool's tune. One wrote: "Soccer Aid has absolutely rattled me here. Who let Carlos Tevez in the building and who the f*** agreed to play that over the tannoy." Plenty of fans made the point after the frontman was only halfway through his quadruple haul. One posted: "Playing you'll never walk alone at old Trafford and Carlos Tevez brace… Jesus" - followed by a laughing emoji. Another simply stated: "Watched Soccer Aid for 6 minutes and seen Carlos Tevez score a double and you'll never walk alone being played at Old Trafford." Another joked: "Tevez getting hat-trick and YNWA being played in the stadium, don't think soccer aid will be getting played at Old Trafford anymore." Others even asked why he was allowed to play there at all. And one extended that suggestion by writing on X: "Shouldn't be allowed to play you'll never walk alone at Old Trafford even for Soccer Aid."

Lotto winner Jane Park makes cheeky jibe as Robbie Williams song choice divides crowd
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Robbie Williams' impromptu performance of an Edinburgh football club's anthem received a mixed reaction from the crowd at Murrayfield on Saturday night. As well as performing his biggest hits during the first leg of his Britpop tour, he decided to ditch the stage and head towards some unsuspecting members of the crowd mid-performance. At one point, Robbie, dressed in pink, appeared to serenade one fortunate fan by touching her on the shoulder and encouraging the crowd to join in. However, the song in question was Sunshine on Leith by The Proclaimers - an iconic tune associated with Hibs and the club's fans. Many were quick to point out on social media how Robbie decided to sing that particular song while performing in the west of the city and near Tynecastle - the home of Hibs' city rivals Hearts. One well-known Hibs fan who couldn't resist posting a video of the rendition was Edinburgh EuroMillions winner Jane Park. She wrote on X: "Robbie Williams singing sunshine on Leith over in Gorgie," along with a laughing face emoji and green love heart. Once finished singing Robbie said: "Now there's two things here. One is I think that's a better song than You'll Never Walk Alone and the other thing is why don't Heart of Midlothian boo that song? I don't get it?" He added: "Are you here Hearts?" to which cheers can be heard from the crowd before Robbie quickly shuts down all talk of football rivalry by quipping: "Ok that's enough of that s**t."

Chance meeting leads to successful charity concert
Celtic choral connections between three choirs, born from a meeting at a bowls competition in Westport, Ireland, culminated in a memorable charity concert at St Mary's Church, Tenby. Pembroke Farmers' Club member Ed Morris, a baritone with Pembroke and District Male Voice, initiated this connection. He met a member of Tredagh Singers from Drogheda, a sister of Ed's neighbour, at the competition. 18 months later, the Tredagh Singers joined with the Narberth-based Serendipity Choir and Pembroke choristers at Tenby. The well-supported concert raised more than £3,000 for Prostate Cymru and Pancreatic Cancer UK charities. Each choir was applauded for their individual performances before joining for a finale of 'Calon Lan' and 'You'll Never Walk Alone'. The MC was Brian Harries, chairman of the Pembrokeshire Friends of Prostate Cymru. Juliet Rossiter, the musical director of both Pembrokeshire choirs, conducted 14 individual pieces. The accompanists were Heather Williams (Serendipity) and William Lambert (Pembroke). Gifts were exchanged, with Tredagh chairman Vincent Moore presenting a framed score of 'Calon Lan' and a bottle of local whiskey. In return, Pembroke chairman Huw Morgan gave a print of Barafundle, one of the county's well-known beaches. Both local choirs hope to continue their connection with the Tredagh Singers in the future, both in Wales and Ireland.

Dad 'thought he lost everything' after baby in pram dragged 15ft by Liverpool parade car
Daniel Eveson recalls the moment his partner and baby boy were dragged 15ft by the car during the Liverpool victory parade. A father whose five-month-old baby and partner were dragged 15ft, when a car ploughed into a Liverpool parade, says he "thought he had lost everything". Daniel Eveson, 36, recounts how one of the "best day of in his life" turned into the worst after seeing his partner, Sheree, and baby, Teddy, hit by a car during the victory parade on Bank Holiday Monday. The family, who are lifelong Reds fans, had travelled from Telford, Shropshire, to enjoy the celebrations but ended up being caught up in the terrifying scenes that unfolded on Water Street shortly after the club bus had passed by. Daniel said he thought a fight had broken out but it was actually car ploughing through the crowd. He then watched as his partner and son, who was in his pram, were dragged away from him. "The car stopped and he pulled into the middle of the road," Daniel said. "A paramedic was with her [Sheree] straight away, but that's when I asked her 'Where's Ted?'. She didn't know. "I could see his pram on the floor. I saw his face crying and I knew he was OK because there wasn't a mark on him. I don't know how, but it's a blessing from above." Teddy was assessed at Alder Hey Children's Hospital and discharged, but Sheree suffered cuts to her legs and deep muscle tissue damage, after she was run over by the car, and is still recovering in Aintree Hospital. "The tyre had gone over her leg and continued to drag her down the road," Daniel said. "It was the worst moment of my life. I wish it was me in that hospital bed." A total of 79 people were injured in the incident. Seven of those remain in hospital in a stable condition, a spokesperson from Merseyside Police confirmed on Wednesday, 28 May. "At that moment I thought my life was over. I thought I'm dead, my partner is dead and my boy is dead," Daniel added. Police believe the car which struck pedestrians was able to tailgate an ambulance crew attending to someone suspected of suffering a heart attack after a road block was temporarily lifted. Daniel believes there are a "lot of unanswered questions" and add that they police "could have stopped the driver" by "pulling him out of the car as soon as they thought there was any threat. They should've got him out of there." He added: "Those words 'You'll Never Walk Alone' mean a lot more to me now. I'll still go to the games but whenever I hear that famous song it will just mean a whole lot more. "Anyone who knows Liverpool knows its much more than a club - it's a family." A man, 53, from West Derby, Liverpool, believed to be the driver of the car, was arrested at the scene on suspicion of attempted murder, dangerous driving offences and driving while unfit through drugs. Officers have been given extra time to question the suspect, who police have described as a white British man. Merseyside Police Assistant Chief Constable Jenny Sims said: 'This was a fast-moving and unprecedented incident which required the skill and experience of officers to quickly establish what had happened and assist injured members of the public. 'The officers detained and arrested a male within a matter of minutes and ensured he could be taken into custody. 'Our officers deal with violence and challenging situations on a daily basis. They go to work each day knowing that they might have to step into a situation that most people would run away from. 'On this occasion they bravely ran towards danger in order to protect the public, putting their own lives and personal safety on the line." fundraising campaign set up for those affected has raised more than £20,000, including a £10,000 donation from the Jamie Carragher 23 Foundation, the former Liverpool player's charity.
