I’ve been a @LFC fan for over 70 years and that’s the first time I’ve been disgusted by some so-called fans who treated TAA so badly when he’s given so much to the club over 20 years. We should be proud of what he’s given to us and wish him well.

🚨NEW: Elon Musk has called Senator Mark Kelly (D-AZ) a “traitor” after visiting Ukraine this weekend. Kelly is a 25-year U.S. Navy pilot veteran and retired astronaut.

RETWEET if you stand with @CaptMarkKelly against Elon Musk’s unpatriotic attacks!

This might sound bewildering, but I moved my family to Northern Ireland in pursuit of a normie life. London became impossible: high housing costs, exhausting density, and a difficulty creating financial and social stability. I longed for simple joys. Like loading up the car and taking the kids to the cinema. Nearly a year since moving here, and my life is transformed. Yes, life still weighs heavy. But then you suddenly realise that even in a normal, unextraordinary Dundonald car park, there’s Beauty and Grace.

Our incredible daughter Liz died in the early hours of this morning. She remained determined to the last. Even yesterday she was still making plans. We are so very proud of the kindness, empathy and courage she has shown in the last year. She was not only a phenomenal photographer, she was the best human, and the most wonderful daughter and big sister we could ever have asked for. No one could have fought harder for life than she did. There is a gaping Liz shaped hole in our lives that I am not sure how we will ever fill. We have so much gratitude to every single one of you, whether you offered to help, or liked or shared posts - you ensured Liz’s last two months were her very best. She flew high until the end.

We have two last favours to ask. Firstly, we would like to ask you to share one of her photos - on your social media, or in real life, however you can. Let’s let her go out with a bang. #LizHatton (photos will follow in a thread but do also feel free to choose your own from @lizhatton_photography on Instagram)

Secondly, if you can we would like you to help us with a mission to raise money to fund research into Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumour. With no charity in the UK or internationally funding into effective treatments are lacking. In 2024 a 15% 5 year survival rate is simply not enough. Together we can change that. Whether you can share, donate or raise funds - please be our village one more time. Let’s make this the last item on her bucket list and make sure other families don’t face a similar fate: https://t.co/iSsJO83LLs

Two giants of broadcasting gone this week. Very sad to hear the news about @bigkenreid and Trevor Campbell (Big T). Our paths crossed on many occasions and I’m sorry to hear of their passing.

[John Rosborough @JRRadioNI]

So very sorry to hear that Candy Devine has passed away. A wonderful colleague and outstanding broadcaster, she was loved by the local audience and much missed after she returned to Australia to be with her family. To them I send my deep condolences at this saddest of times.

BREAKING: Watch the exact moment Fox News reveals to their audience that Vice President Kamala Harris has completely eliminated Donald Trump’s lead in the polls. This has the Trump campaign in pure panic. Retweet so all Americans see this.
