On this day in 1838, Bendigo faced ‘Big Ben’ Caunt for the second time at Skipwith Common near Selby. Bendigo’s spiked boots went missing. He was way ahead but the replacement shoes caused him to slip. The inexperienced referee deemed it a foul and Caunt was declared the winner.

Bendigo gets a mention on the sign to the Sunrise Hill Nature Reserve in Nottingham's Bestwood Estate. It is still known locally as 'Bendigo's Ring'. The contour and slope of the land shows why it was chosen, as it gave spectators a good viewing point. #boxing #sportinghistory

Rather muddy Sunday afternoon manoeuvres… #Hucknall 3pm absolute quagmire in places, still got several newly formed streams running out over the fields. Lovely springlike temperatures having said that. No complaints!

I have shared my thoughts on yesterday's 1-1 draw against Barrow on the Pride of Nottingham match discussion. I believe it to be a fair post, I would encourage my #Notts friends to have a read and let me know their own thoughts. #NottsCounty #Barrow

[Mapperley People @mapperleypeople]

How about this aerial photograph showing the scale of the brickworks at Mapperley. Bottom right is Sherwood Station with Mapperley Rise heading up to Woodborough Road. Sherwood Vale and the railway spur to the brickyard can be seen. Is this from the 1950s or earlier? #mapperley

[Leanne Moden @LeanneModenPoet]

A group of young people that I'm supporting are looking for spoken word open mic opportunities in the East Midlands (Lincs, Leics, Notts, Northants, Derbys and Rutland). If you know any good ones, let me know!

@Nottingham67 So sorry mate, I can imagine the heartache.

I think Birdseye might be trolling Nottingham @ronmanagernottm #peas
