Follow The Independent's live coverage of all the action in the FA Women’s Super League today. The WSL is the top tier of English women’s football with international players from all over the world plying their trade in one of the most competitive and entertaining leagues around. Chelsea have won three of the past four titles and Emma Hayes’ side will be right in the hunt again, with the likes of Arsenal - champions in 2018-19 – and Manchester City, who have been runners-up for each of the past four seasons, among their competitors. With the top three sides qualifying for the UEFA Women’s Champions League, all 12 WSL teams have plenty to play for, although some clubs’ main ambition will simply be to avoid the drop. The side who finish bottom will be relegated to the FA Women’s Championship – a fate that befell Bristol City in 2020-21 – and newly-promoted Leicester City, competing in the top flight of the women’s game for the first time, will be eager to avoid an immediate return. We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:

Brentford striker Ivan Toney has been suspended from all football-related activity with immediate effect for eight months and fined £50,000, the FA has announced. The England international was charged with 262 breaches of the Football Association’s betting rules between 25 February 2017 and 23 January 2021. The FA withdrew 30 of the breaches, and he admitted to the remaining 232. His sanctions were imposed by an independent Regulatory Commission following a hearing. Toney can return to training only with his club for the final four months of his suspension, starting from 17 September 2023. Brentford issued a statement, saying: “Brentford FC notes the decision of an independent Regulatory Commission to issue an eight-month ban from all football and football-related activity to Ivan Toney with immediate effect.” The 27-year-old, who has scored 20 goals for Brentford in the Premier League this season was charged with breaking FA rule E8, which refers to players being barred from betting on games or sharing information for betting purposes. Newcastle and England defender Kieran Trippier was handed a 10 week ban in December 2020 for giving information out for others to bet on his transfer to Atletico Madrid from Tottenham.

Brentford forward Ivan Toney has been suspended from all football and football-related activity for eight months, the Football Association has announced. Toney was charged by the FA in November for 262 alleged breaches of betting rules over a four-year period and has now discovered his punishment. Bees forward Toney will be banned until January 16th and has been fined £50,000 after he admitted to 232 of the alleged breaches. “Ivan Toney has been suspended from all football and football-related activity with immediate effect for eight months, which runs up to and including 16 January 2024, fined £50,000 and warned as to his future conduct for breaches of The FA’s Betting Rules,” an FA statement read. “The Brentford FC forward was charged with 262 breaches of FA Rule E8 in total between 25 February 2017 and 23 January 2021. The FA subsequently withdrew 30 of these breaches and he admitted to the remaining 232. “ An independent regulatory commission imposed Toney’s sanctions and he will not be allowed to train with his Brentford team-mates until September 17. The one-cap England forward has scored 21 goals in 35 appearances for Brentford this season. The FA statement continued: “His sanctions were subsequently imposed by an independent Regulatory Commission following a personal hearing. He is permitted to return to training only with his club for the final four months of his suspension starting from 17 September 2023. “The independent Regulatory Commission’s written reasons for these sanctions will be published in due course, and The FA will wait to review them before commenting further.” Read More Charity boss speaks out over ‘traumatic’ encounter with royal aide Ukraine war’s heaviest fight rages in east - follow live

It's finally time to unleash our inner alien superstars. Here's what "Renaissance" tour-goers need to know before the show hits their hometown.

Celebrity encounters are always interesting to hear. While they’re not completely revealing (what if someone’s having an ‘off’ day or just going through a hard time?) they can often shed light on what a very famous person is really like behind the scenes. Whether they’re kind to ‘normal’ people, whether they’re respectful to their entourage if they’re a bad tipper… And it’s the latter accusation that’s just been levelled at cosmetics tycoon and reality TV star Kylie Jenner. In a video shared in July 2020 former hostess Julia Carol Ann decided to spill the beans about the celebrities she’d met while working in “fancy Manhattan restaurant”. In a TikTok rating celebrities including Hailey Bieber and the Hadid sisters, Julia highlighted a not-so-positive experience with the youngest Jenner sibling. Sign up to our new free Indy100 weekly newsletter Turns out, for a very rich person, Kylie Jenner is apparently extremely stingy. “She was fine, but she tipped $20 on a $500 dinner bill,” Julia alleged. Do with that information what you will”. As a result, she rated Kylie “2/10” as a customer. Diners in America are encouraged to leave tips ranging from 15 to 20 per cent. Which would have been about $100 on Kylie’s cheque. Instead, her tip was reportedly only 4 per cent of the total.

This is a woman allegedly worth $900m, after all... Also faring badly in her ratings was Hailey Bieber who scored a “3.5/10” for not being “nice” during several interactions Julia had with her. The Hadid sisters, however, were “super polite and friendly with staff”, gaining them full marks. In part two of her TikTok tea-spilling, Julia also scored Kylie’s sister, Kendall Jenner, poorly. She got a “4/10” for being “pretty cold towards staff” and having “someone speak for her”. Beyoncé however got a “1000000/10” for being extremely polite. Manners cost nothing, folks!
