@LBC My 7 year old son and I play football in the garden often. He usually wants his team to be spurs or man City, but this week he has said that he wants his team to be england women. It made me so happy when he smashed a goal past me and shouted 'goal by Lauren Hemp!'.

It’s been eight years since Peter Crouch gave us The Best Good Feet For A Big Lad Goal since records began.

Don’t get ideas above your station, son. Next time, lay it off and get yourself in the mixer...

I think one of the most amazing displays of democracy in history is that one thousand islands managed to come together and agree on a single dressing.
