• Patrice Evra may have reopened his feud with Luis Suarez by pretending to bite into a fake dismembered arm during Manchester United’s title-winning celebrations, in an apparent reference to the Uruguay striker’s latest transgression.

Suarez faces a ban for biting Branislav Ivanovic’s arm during Liverpool’s 2-2 draw with Chelsea on Sunday. Evra appeared to make fun of him after United’s win on Monday, collecting a joke arm when it was thrown on to the pitch and gesturing to bite into it.

• Celtic announced yesterday that the past few months have been so profitable that they can afford to knock £100 off the cost of a standard adult season book for next season.

Neil Lennon’s men clinched back-to-back titles on Sunday, reached the last 16 of the Champions League and will contest the Scottish Cup final against Hibernian on 26 May.

“Such a run of success has led to a very positive year off the field for the club and we wanted to make sure that our fans share in this success,” said Celtic chief executive Peter Lawwell.
