LONDON (AP) — Chelsea women's manager Emma Hayes says she was wrong to describe intrasquad player relationships as “inappropriate.”Hayes is finishing out the season at Chelsea in the Women’s Super League before she takes over as coach of the U.S. women's national team. In Hayes' initial comments Thursday, she said player-to-player relationships in a team are “ inappropriate " because they have the potential to create extra challenges to manage. She had been asked about player-coach relationships, which she also said were inappropriate. “I didn't think it was right for me to use the term ‘inappropriate’ for the players,” Hayes said Friday night after Chelsea beat Arsenal 1-0 in a WSL match. Chelsea players Jess Carter and Ann-Katrin Berger are currently in a relationship, and after Hayes' initial comment, Carter liked a tweet that said it was “beyond bonkers” to bring player relationships into the conversation about player-coach relationships.

When Daniel Skousen scrubs at the ash and soot covering his Maui home, he worries about the smell. Crews have installed air quality monitors throughout town and are spraying a soil sealant to prevent toxic ash from being washed into the ocean or blowing around. The Hawaii Department of Health's Environmental Health Services Division also told Skousen's attorney it had no records about residential testing of contaminants to release. “If it smells like burned plastic or burned electrical cables, then probably those chemicals are in the air and not healthy,” Hertz-Picciotto said. Whether a home can be made safe enough for residency comes down in part to the resident's risk tolerance, Hayes said.

CNN —Australian superstar Sam Kerr scored a stunning hat-trick in Chelsea’s 4-1 win against Paris FC Féminines in the UEFA Women’s Champions League (UWCL) on Thursday. Paris sought to take the game to Hayes’ team early on and forward Mathilde Bourdieu forced a save from Chelsea goalkeeper Ann-Katrin Berger with a low strike. The deadlock was broken on the half hour as Kerr collected a pass from Lauren James, who was coming off a hat-trick in a 5-1 WSL win against Liverpool on Sunday, and poked past Paris goalkeeper Chiamaka Nnadozie. A long ball forward by Berger evaded the Paris defenders and put the Australian striker through on goal. With Nnadozie off her line, Kerr audaciously lobbed the Nigerian goalkeeper from outside the penalty area to score her third.

With Chelsea dominating proceedings, referee Frida Klarlund awarded Real Madrid the penalty after Blues defender Jessie Fleming brought down Athenea del Castillo. Real Madrid manager Alberto Toril said he was pleased with the performance and result against Chelsea.

England crashed out of the 2019 Women's World Cup in the semifinals. While the England players’ abilities speak for themselves, Wiegman has helped to instill a formidable team mindset in the group through some “non-negotiable” philosophies. “I think in a team you always have to do your best,” she told CNN before the start of the Women’s World Cup. Before the World Cup, England had won 26 of the 32 games under Wiegman and had only lost once – a friendly against Australia in April.

WASHINGTON, March 7 (Reuters) - JetBlue (JBLU.O) Chief Executive Robin Hayes strongly defended the airline’s $3.8 billion plan to buy ultra-low cost carrier Spirit Airlines (SAVE.N) despite the Justice Department's lawsuit Tuesday challenging the deal. "Of course we’re going to continue to offer low fares,” Hayes told Reuters in an interview. If the merger was completed "JetBlue would likely increase prices on every route where Spirit flies today," it said. JetBlue reached a deal with the Florida Attorney General Monday to boost seats on flights to the state by 50% over seven years. "A bigger JetBlue now in Florida means all the airlines flying to Florida to compete with us are going to lower their fares," Hayes said.

"Of course we’re going to continue to offer low fares,” Hayes told Reuters in an interview. "This argument that we'll take seats outs and fares are going to go up. We’re going to put capacity back," by doing things such as using larger planes on existing routes and by flying planes more often. He insisted that JetBlue will still serve Spirit customers buying very low-cost tickets after a merger and rejected the idea that fares will go up.

Hayes was released from prison in Britain in January 2021 after serving half an 11-year sentence. Hayes’ legal team is considering further legal options to clear his name, a representative for Hayes said in a statement. “The U.S. Department of Justice has seen fit to dismiss charges based on the same facts, evidence and case in law that the UK courts used to justify my 11-year prison sentence,” Hayes said.
