His Royal Highness met with CEO Christian Purslow, Head Coach Unai Emery, his coaching staff and the men's first-team squad.

Prince William also sat down with Villa Women Manager Carla Ward and spent time with the club's Academy as he watched our youngsters in training before casting his eye over the first team.

In a letter seen by Sky News, the royal confirmed he had been in touch with the FA about the claims, saying "racism and abuse has no place in our society".

It seems that AELTC will be lifting the ban on players from Russia and Belarus in the coming weeks prior to the Wimbledon tournament.
The PssoW will be handing out the trophies to any player who wins at the tournament.

QuoteThe Princess of Wales intends to continue with the tradition of presenting the Wimbledon singles trophies this year regardless of whether the champions are from Russia or Belarus.

Despite concerns over a high-profile member of the royal family handing over the silverware during the invasion of Ukraine by military forces from Russia and Belarus, sources have said that the princess plans to fulfil her duties as the All England Club?s patron.

Wimbledon organisers are expected to lift the ban on entrants from Russia and Belarus in the next two weeks. Players from both nations will be permitted to compete as neutral competitors, with no mention of where they hail from beside their names on scoreboards and television graphics.

The All England Club has kept Kensington Palace updated during the long decision-making process. While there were initial concerns among some club officials about the propaganda that could potentially be derived from the princess standing on Centre Court alongside a champion from Russia or Belarus, there has been no indication from the palace that the princess will not attend the women?s singles final on July 15 and the men?s singles final on July 16.

Good. That ban was absolutely ridiculous anyway. As if sportspersons from Russia or Belarus could have any possible influence on the foreign or domestic policies of their governments!

Well, the stadium would hardly be packed because of William being there! It?s the FA Cup Final for God?s sake! Man United is one of the most popular teams in Britain in terms of fans (and has been for about a hundred years), and this is between two Manchester teams whose fans are fiercely loyal (again traditionally) so it?s a bit of a grudge match of fierce rivalry as well. People from Manchester probably rushed to buy tickets and be there, and the FA Cup Final at Wembley is packed every year anyway, especially when well known teams are playing.

^Did wannable say it?s because William was there? Must have missed that in her post. William is also there because it?s the final, not just a random excursion; he?s the president of the organization.

I realise he?s the President. Several royals are Presidents/patrons of various British sports. And Wembley would be packed for the FA Cup if Sooty the glove puppet was handing out the medals and Cup.

I?m unsure who you think is arguing against that fact? It?s a football match. I don?t think he showed up thinking everyone was there to see him.

You can't be everyone's favourite, @LucyBronze😅

When do we start the campaign to get the Prince of Wales on the pod @JillScottJS8 & @benhainess?

The Princess of Wales has arrived at Maidenhead Rugby Club to take part in a rugby skills session and develop the conversation around the crucial early years by including discussions on fatherhood.

Really strong and positive conversation around the table

Group photo and a slightly wobbly angle as the ball flew over my head!
