Manchester United has ruled out appointing Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola as the club's new permanent head coach, with Michael Carrick being given the opportunity for the role instead. Although interim manager Carrick has guided United to an impressive finish, securing Champions League qualification for next season, the club has yet to finalize its decision on the permanent manager position. Iraola had previously been linked with United as a leading candidate, with the board impressed by his managerial approach at Bournemouth. The 43-year-old manager parted ways with The Cherries at the end of the season. However, recent reports from the Daily Mail indicate that Carrick is now closer to being appointed as Manchester United's permanent manager, while Iraola's chances for the position have diminished. Chelsea is also among the clubs interested in Iraola for their vacant head coach position.

Authorities have dismantled the AM 08 online gambling network based in Ranong, which operated for over two years with an average monthly turnover of 6 million baht, or approximately 72 million baht annually. On May 13, 2025, Police Lieutenant General Surpol Preembut, commander of the Investigation Bureau, ordered Police Major Tossak Panklinput and his investigation team to conduct a search operation targeting online gambling operations in Ranong. The team, equipped with a Ranong Provincial Court warrant (No. 26/2569), raided a residence in Moo 3, Bang Non Subdistrict, Muang District, and arrested Ms. Thipysiwan, 24, a Ranong resident. Investigators seized a computer, a mobile phone, and a router during the operation. Police discovered the AM 08 website had over 36,000 members and had been operating for more than two years, generating average monthly revenues of 6 million baht or 72 million baht annually. The site illegally offered various gambling services including lottery, slots, foreign football betting, baccarat, tiger-dragon, hi-lo, and other games. The investigation revealed the gambling network was based in Muang Ranong District and had changed names multiple times to evade detection while maintaining its original customer base. Previously under different names, the network generated approximately 10 million baht per month before operating as AM 08. Ms. Thipysiwan admitted to working as an administrator handling customer relations for the gambling site for over a year, earning 15,000 baht monthly. She faces charges of operating an illegal online gambling platform and soliciting others to participate in unauthorized electronic gambling.

Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has suggested that if Xabi Alonso takes the Chelsea managerial role, it would make managing the Reds more challenging down the line. Alonso, a former Liverpool player, is currently without a job after departing Real Madrid and has been continuously linked with becoming Chelsea's next manager. In his latest comments about Alonso's future, Carragher stated: "I've always felt that Xabi Alonso will manage Liverpool at some point, but when you manage one of our rivals like Chelsea, it does make it a bit more difficult." He added: "I can't see how you move from Chelsea to Liverpool. Perhaps he might have to wait a bit longer in the future, but he has to do what's best for himself right now."

A man's purchase of online hair dye resulted in a severe allergic reaction that left his scalp festering with yellow fluid discharge and facial swelling. After posting about his experience on Facebook, describing the itching, fluid leakage, and hair loss he experienced, the post went viral with thousands of likes, comments, and shares. On May 13, 2025, reporters contacted the man, identified as Nai Kai, 44, from Muang District in Ratchaburi Province, who owns a fish rice soup restaurant in Ratchaburi Municipality. Nai Kai still needed to wrap his head with white gauze due to continuous yellow fluid seepage.

Nai Kai explained that he purchased the hair dye from a popular app that advertised it as made from natural extracts at an affordable price. On May 9, he applied the dye for approximately five minutes, coloring only the hair roots at the front and temple areas. "When I woke up the next morning, my face felt tight and I noticed yellow fluid oozing out," he recounted. He initially thought it was a typical allergic reaction and bought medicine to take and washed his hair with children's shampoo, but the symptoms worsened and his face began to swell.

After visiting a doctor, Nai Kai requested a medical certificate but the doctor was unable to provide one because the specific allergen was unknown. The product packaging contained no Thai language labeling. Following advice from friends, he filed a report with the Muang Ratchaburi Public Health Office, which discovered the hair dye brand had no official product registration. When Nai Kai contacted the Facebook seller and showed photos of his severe reaction, the seller went silent. He now urges consumers to carefully verify reviews and check credentials before purchasing products advertised as natural extracts, as he admits having no prior knowledge of such matters. He was fortunate the dye did not contact his eyes.

At 12:30 p.m. on May 13, 2025, Pheu Thai list MP Phakamon Nunanon and party spokesman discussed Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul's planned visit to Freedom Beach in Phuket, an area currently plagued by influential figures intimidating party MPs investigating flooding issues. The spokesman noted disappointment that a previous visit was cancelled without clear explanation, but expressed hope that this time the PM will genuinely listen to MPs and demonstrate courage in addressing the underlying problem—as ordinary citizens do not typically threaten investigating MPs without powerful backers pulling strings.

The spokesman urged the Prime Minister to face reality head-on and sincerely hear Pheu Thai's concerns without bias, rather than treating the visit as damage control or mere spectacle. Regarding the planned mobile cabinet meeting in Hat Yai in early June, the spokesman praised the initiative but stressed the need for genuine economic recovery measures—not just handouts or vote-buying schemes.

Six months after devastating floods, Hat Yai residents still await meaningful relief despite government claims. The city's current survival depends entirely on government-led reconstruction and comprehensive stimulus efforts. As the monsoon season approaches, residents fear another flooding disaster, demanding swift and substantive action from the government rather than temporary measures.
