Our thoughts are with the families, friends, and teammates of young Ukrainian footballers Vitalii Sapylo (21) and Dmytro Martynenko (25), football’s first reported losses in this war. May they both rest in peace.

Absolutely heartbroken by this news. Sending all of our love to the Johnrose family who he loved miles more than anything. Len was a formidable, opinionated, determined, courageous man. So glad I got to spend time with him last month. We had such a laugh. #RIPLen

Heartbreaking news. Lenny was a real gentleman, and an incredibly popular character within football. He’ll be sadly missed. ❤️ The thoughts of everyone at the PFA are with Len’s family and friends.

"My abiding hope is that future generations of players can also look back with unabashed pride at their legacy of leaving our game in a better place than where they found it." 👏🏻👏🏽👏🏿

Why do players need unions? 👀 Here’s former Celtic Football Club and Hearts striker Craig Beattie to tell you why he went from player to player union at PFA Scotland. 👇

“That was the moment when the penny dropped for me as to the value of a union.” Bravo PFA Scotland for ensuring the collective voice of Scottish & Scotland-based players is heard & honoured.

Thank you for the invite from Martí Cifuentes to speak to the players about my career at QPR FC and the importance of preparing for life after football & our work at the PFA .

Also, great to catch up with my former teammate & good friend Andy Sinton, as well as Andy Impey. Great facilities at the training ground and very impressed with Marti as a coach and most importantly as a person.
