The Hammers may survive this season but the prospects for the next one do not look good – just ask fans of the Wearside club now in League One
Perhaps this time the Ferryman will not accept the fare. Wednesday’s unlikely victory over Chelsea, allied to the abjection of Norwich and Bournemouth and the struggles of Aston Villa and Watford, means West Ham may survive this season, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t major questions for the club to answer, foremost among them who should be their manager.
Wednesday’s Premier League game turned out to be a clash of two managerial flaws, the inability of Frank Lampard sides to defend set‑pieces or counterattacks winning out over the tendency of David Moyes sides to drop deeper and deeper, particularly when they have something to defend. The victory may end up being decisive, but there can be no long-lasting sense of wellbeing.

Cricket ban | Swimming pool closures | Stockport County | Sunderland AFC | Liverpool FC
Re your report (England and Wales cricket clubs face ‘lost summer’ amid lockdown, 24 June), basketball is a contact sport, played indoors with a ball frequently handled by players. Cricket is played outside, physically distanced, featuring a ball I’ve often not touched for hours on end while loitering at deep square leg. Basketball is allowed post-lockdown, recreational cricket still banned. Am I missing something?
Steve Wells
Claygate, Surrey• As someone who was, for 14 years, a trustee of the Pells Pool Community Association, and after a career that included seven years as part of a clinical mathematical modelling unit at UCL and ten years specialising in public health statistics, I can only sympathise with Libby Brooks (‘It’s a social lifeline’: swimmers frustrated as UK lidos stay shut, 26 June). I too am completely unable to fathom what part of “the science” is keeping outdoor swimming pools closed.

Liverpool’s Premier League triumph | Chlorinated chicken | Dominic Cummings | Michael Rosen | Bras
Congratulations to Liverpool on their richly deserved Premier League title. I’m not so sure about it ending “30 years of hurt” though (Signing Rosenthal and reeling in Villa: the last time Liverpool won the title, 25 June). As a lifelong Sunderland fan, now languishing in League One, I think I could have borne the pain of my club only winning three FA Cups, four league cups, two European Cups, one Uefa Cup, three European Super Cups and one Fifa World Club Championship over the last three decades.

Whitley Bay, Tyne and Wear• Now that Swim England has stated that Covid-19 is not transmissible in chlorinated pool water (Letters, 24 June), I expect Boris to announce that he will immediately import enough US chlorinated chicken to safeguard the UK from the threatened second wave of infection.

Moseley, Birmingham - Sat, 30 May 2020 10:55:41 +0000: My favourite game: Charlton beat Sunderland in classic play-off final | Nick Allbury - Sunderland | The Guardian
Clive Mendonca’s hat-trick and Michael Gray’s ashen face are among the memories from an incredible encounter
Football stirs the same emotions in all of us. Joy and despair, fragile optimism and resigned acceptance. Yet it’s how we manage these feelings that shapes our relationship with the game.
As a youngster, football was my master. All I wanted in the world was to see my team, Charlton Athletic, walk out at Wembley Stadium, and also, if it wasn’t too much trouble, to see us play in the Premier League. Both always seemed improbable, and yet, remarkably, on one heady late-spring day in 1998, via the Division One play-off final against Sunderland, I was offered one and the tantalising prospect of the other.
