Darren England reached the Premier League as an assistant referee. Then he swapped the flag for a whistle and worked his way back from the National League.

He’s since taken charge of 100 Premier League matches, refereed the FA Cup final at Wembley and earned his first Champions League VAR appointment. And he’s still setting himself new targets.

Speaking to BBC Sport, Darren reflects on backing himself to make that career change, the support he’s had along the way and what keeps him pushing to improve.

Unbelievably @camsell59 referenced this very set of events just yesterday and today it pops up on another platform!

❤️ My beautiful boy deserves to be remembered with love, not hate. ❤️

Yesterday, a Coventry fan used a photograph of Bradley to taunt Sunderland supporters.

As Bradley’s mam, this is heartbreaking, especially as it’s one of my favourite photographs of him. Just look at that smile.

I remember that day like it was yesterday. He was so happy, having so much fun. Those moments were precious because they were few and far between. So much of Bradley’s short life was spent battling cancer and enduring treatments no child should ever face.

To see such a beautiful memory used in such a cruel way really does make my heart hurt. 💔

We are a football-loving family who follow Sunderland home and away. I’m all for football banter, but surely mocking a child who died from cancer is not banter?

I hope the club takes appropriate action and the young lad’s family help him understand how hurtful his actions were. I don’t want hatred directed towards him, so please please don't, just for him to learn from this.

Behind that photograph is a little boy who was loved beyond measure and a family who miss him every day.

Thank you to everyone who has defended Bradley and shown us so much love. It means more than you know. ❤️

What some people don’t realise is that Bradley’s story didn’t end when his life did.

Because of Bradley, children’s lives are being saved, hundreds of families have received vital support, and children facing unimaginable battles are being given hope.

Through Super Brad’s Pad, families can escape hospital life, spend precious time together and make memories that last forever.

That is Bradley’s legacy. The difference my little boy continues to make in this world. No amount of cruelty will ever take that away.

So rather than let this photograph be remembered for hatred, I want it remembered for what it truly represents.

My beautiful little boy, enjoying one of the happiest days of his life, with the biggest smile on his face. 💙

That is how I want the world to remember him.

#CancerHasNoColours ❤️💙🤍💚🩷🖤🧡

@theleadnl @EbacNorthernLge @NewcastleUniAFC @CestrianTweet I believe so yes - that said they had to defend with some determination particularly in the second half. Some good goals too. The visitors may rue a free-kick that hit the bar in the first half at 1-0.

@UniteSharon @GOVUK Severe penalties should be imposed on offenders - not only are they jeopardising the safety and well-being of drivers but also the general public.

[Sharon Graham @UniteSharon]

Bus and tram workers are facing an avalanche of escalating abuse at work. They were deemed as critical workers during Covid and should get the same protection from violence, as emergency workers.

📢 Our members are demanding and deserve protections at work that these proposals do not address. 2/2
