It's a great achievement and a nice narrative, but don't think that the Lioness's success will transform women's football. Sport doesn't work like that, it's ephemeral, joy in a moment but little more.

Very sad news from the other side of the world. 'Leggo' was one of the great companions on the cricket circuit. Warm and witty.

The reading of the classified football results on Sports Report has always been part of the Saturday match-day fabric for many fans. BBC 5 Live Sport BBC Radio 5 Live decision to scrap the service shows a lack of understanding of fans. It’s about continuity, the pyramid, information…

Govt sold 260 courts. Then restricted days judges sit to save money on courts + legal aid. And cut legal aid rates by 40%. Then required barristers to do a lot of work for no pay. Then refused to implement recommendations of its own review. And Raab is furious with barristers?!
