... more evidence emerging from Sunday. Interesting interview with a ticketless ‘fan’ from Sunday.

- 5,000 got in
- bribing stewards

A thorough investigation is clearly needed here with the security clearly inadequate!

What happens at the next FA Cup Final or international?

... and with this all chance (if there was any) of hosting the @FIFAWorldCup in #2030 has gone!

[@SASHertsSport @SASHertsSport]

Excellent & enjoyable afternoon of pairs cricket with @StColumbasPE for our U12Cs. All progressed, all improved & all had fun! Game ended with an 8 run win to StC but close all the way through & extras was the difference!

In short - If Mr Murphy says he thinks you’re a decent runner or have the potential to be one, chances are that you probably are!! - Benedict has not run for the school for two years - today he went to No2 in the national rankings and became the Herts Champion. Trust the process!

@StColumbasSport @StColumbasPE this is the start of an exciting journey! #legacy

Youth football
Less than 0.5% of boys entering academies at the age of 9 will ever make a living from the game.
So what happens to those who don't "make it" - and does football adequately prepare them for life and alternative careers?

Ran for the first time properly for 2 months today - the hardest part was opening the door and the first few steps! Stopped to take this photo to remind myself that no one has GOT to run, we GET to run! Change the message! #SCCSport #SCCPE

[PE | St Columba's College @StColumbasPE]

Absolutely loving having people follow and join us on Strava.

Mostly for reasons like being able to see one Columban who gets up every day before school and does up to 10miles on his bike - we doth tip our hats to you Henry!

This made my day! You’re a great role model #SCCPE

[PE | St Columba's College @StColumbasPE]

After being stuck inside for the day my children wanted to go for a run.

No concept of too rainy, or too dark, or too cold - just aware they need to keep healthy and had energy to burn.

The HARDEST part of any run is the first step out the door!!
