@mentionthewar I'm so very sorry to only just learn the news of Jo's passing. What a fantastic colleague and friend - one of life's infectious enthusiasts and a pleasure to spend time with. My deepest condolences to Helen, friends and family

With deepest sadness we must announce that Jo Pugh died last night with family at his side. He bravely managed a cancer diagnosis for several years. He was endlessly passionate about digital history. Thank you to all who enriched Jo's professional life. It made the difference

@j4lebi @KidsOfColourHQ I'm so sorry for your loss Shelley. All power to you and your family in seeking recognition and justice. Please say if you'd ever like to talk. Lots of love xx

Yesterday we buried my baby cousin, Anu Abraham. Anu was a 21 y/o student police officer. He took his own life on 3rd March. Our family want to make clear: we feel the institutionally racist culture & bullying he experienced, killed him. More from @KidsOfColourHQ:

@FootballCliches I think my favourite part of the the whole hullabaloo was Jon Sopel tweeting 'surely they didn't get rid of Lineker without having someone lined up'. Where's the plan!?

Recording 𝗙𝗢𝗢𝗧𝗕𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗖𝗟𝗜𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗦 on Monday, it's the 𝐴𝑑𝑗𝑢𝑑𝑖𝑐𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑃𝑎𝑛𝑒𝑙 and we are ready to tackle a frankly ludicrous weekend of football-adjacent goings on - plus any of your usual football-linguistic observations and allegations. Let's hear them...

@AudreyCollins23 I'm so very sorry for your loss. Audrey was a delightful colleague, always generous with her time and expertise (and always good value for a chat in the tea kitchen). She has had such an immeasurable impact on people's lives, helping with something so meaningful to them

This is a message from Audrey’s family. Audrey sadly died on 4 February after a short illness. Details of services will be posted here when available. Thank you to all her friends and colleagues who made her life so happy.

What on earth will the UK festival industry do when Chic decide to stop touring. Just guaranteed badness (sounds good from my mum's back garden)

@FootballCliches 'You've got to think their fears of the forthcoming climate catastrophe aren't helping the atmosphere, Steve'

Feels, perhaps, as if the crowd's unspoken fears about their future prospects and the cost of higher education is transmitting itself to the players

@Arike_Oke @dannybirchall Always on brand pal!

I'm at the WHSmith, I'm at the M&S Food, I'm at the combination WHSmith and M&S Food

@NicholasRober11 Sincere condolences to you and your family. When you think it feels like time to reach out, we found @SOBScharity to be of great support

I am sorry to have to tell you that our beloved elder son Jonathan took his own life last weekend. It was clearly something he had planned but neither we nor his very extensive friends network had any inkling that he was suffering. He will be forever in our hearts and memories.

@redunley Honestly, why did I think it would be broadcast live like its the world Cup final or something (cricket, obvs)

@Baloun It’s on in the evening here - I guess it must be recorded, but had not even really thought about it. It is really big over here, which I really don’t get

Ukraine’s 🇺🇦 entry has reignited my love of #Eurovision It is truely atrocious and will undoubtedly win!
