    I have absolutely no interest in football or any sports in particular.

    It keeps bringing up football news. 90% of the articles relate to players etc

    I'm continually clicking hide the story but it's making no difference and they keep coming back

    Can anyone tell me how to turn it off?

    Thats a quick google, if that doesnt work cant try disabling google app, i'm sure you can

    Settings
    Apps
    Google
    Disable

    Do that for other ones you dont use as some you cant uninstall without tech knowhow

    Jesus nuclear option much? One type of notification is bothering the guy, disable the entire app!

    OP go to phone settings, apps, find the Google app, notifications, and uncheck the notification channel(s) for sports updates.
