England fans slam ‘rip off’ World cup train fare as tickets hiked from $13 to $100

England fans have slammed a reported "rip-off" at the upcoming World Cup, as train fares to the New Jersey stadium hosting a Panama group match and the final are set for a dramatic increase. The Athletic reported on Tuesday that NJ Transit is expected to hike return fares from New York’s Penn Station to the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, to over $100 (£74). This marks a significant jump from the usual cost of under $13 (£10). Free Lions, the Football Supporters’ Association’s Fans Embassy service, which assists England fans, responded on X: "We were initially told the prices would remain as standard, however this potential news comes as little surprise. Another day, another rip-off at this World Cup. What on earth is going on?" NJ Transit was unavailable for comment on Tuesday evening. New York Senator Chuck Schumer posted on X: “FIFA is set to reap nearly 11 billion dollars from this summer’s World Cup, yet New York area commuters and residents are being handed the bill. Return tickets from Penn Station to MetLife Stadium could cost travelers more than $100 during the World Cup games, a new report revealed. (Getty) “The least FIFA can do is ensure New York residents can go to the stadium without being gouged at the turnstile. “I am demanding FIFA step up and cover transportation costs for host cities and states. New York commuters and residents should not subsidize an 11billion USD windfall.” The reported increase for the New York/New Jersey venue follows on from authorities in Boston confirming their intention to quadruple return fares from the centre of the city to the Gillette Stadium in Foxborough to 80 dollars (£59). England play their second group game against Ghana there, while Scotland’s opening two games are being staged there. Ticket-holders at the last men’s Euros in 2024 did receive discounted rates on public transport in Germany. The latest row over transport costs follows earlier criticism over the cost of World Cup tickets and parking, and FIFA’s decision to adopt a dynamic pricing strategy for ticket sales. FIFA has been approached for comment.

AOC enjoys suite at Yankee Stadium during government shutdown

AOC enjoys suite at Yankee Stadium during government shutdown originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez hung out in a suite at Yankee Stadium on Sunday as the New York Yankees hosted the Miami Marlins. The House of Representatives member watched the Yanks blow a lead late to lose 7-6. Fans shared photos they took with AOC during the game on social media, while others critiqued her attendance amid a government shutdown that has lasted for more than a month. The New York Post reported that Ocasio-Cortez continues to be paid as part of her $174,000 annual salary while many federal staffers go without pay during the shutdown. Ocasio-Cortez is a known Yankees fan. A story in the Washington Post in 2019 notes that she's a "diehard fan" of the Yanks despite the Mets actually being the team that falls within her district. MORE: Yankees outfielder once battled ostrich in 11-plate spaghetti-eating contest She grew up in New York City, and having been born in 1989, AOC would've been just learning about baseball when the Yankees were a dynasty with the likes of Derek Jeter and Mariano Rivera. Ocasio-Cortez has represented New York's 14th district in the House since January 2019. She attended Boston University for college, and she worked on Bernie Sanders' presidential campaign in 2016. AOC was a surprise challenger for the House seat she eventually won, and she has made notable appearances politically, including at the Democratic National Convention in 2024. And on Sunday, she stopped by the Bronx to watch the Yankees, although they ruined the day a bit by losing to the lowly Marlins with a bad blown lead.

Bill to wreck Ali Act passes House, moves to Senate

Representative Joe Courtney, a Democrat from Connecticut, during a House Committee on Education and Workforce hearing in Washington, DC, US, on Thursday, June 5, 2025. The Trump administration is temporarily barred from shutting down the Job Corps training program, preventing as many as 25,000 young adult students from being displaced, a federal judge ruled. Photographer: Eric Lee/Bloomberg via Getty Images | Bloomberg via Getty Images H.R. 4264, better known as the Muhammad Ali American Boxing Revival Act, is one step closer to becoming law after passing the House on a voice vote. Matthew Wells of MMA Junkie has more on the bipartisan vote, which included 40 minutes of debate. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) notably spoke in support of the bill, acknowledging its lingering issues but asserting that she and her compatriots “fought hard to make sure it wasn’t just a gift to industry.” Joe Courtney (D-CT), one of the few to vote against the bill in committee, spoke against it, highlighting the potential for exploitation and the testimony of industry figures. The bill now heads to the Senate, where it will likely sit in limbo for some time. The chamber currently finds itself gridlocked over the ongoing Department of Homeland Security shutdown and the President’s aggressive but almost certainly doomed push for the SAVE Act. Please take the opportunity to reach out to your Senators and express your opposition to the bill, which would allow TKO and other promotions to utilize the same anti-competitive practices we see today in UFC.
