EXCL: The @CPSUK have confirmed to @MirrorFootball that a Liverpool fan has been found guilty of a hate crime after singing the homophobic 'rent boy' chant ahead of last year's FA Cup final. The fan was prevented from watching the game and has been fined mirror.co.uk/sport/football/…

This is actually heartbreaking. Local newspapers like the @cambstimes are vital to communities. Absolutely gutted for my former colleagues 💔
New on HTFP today: Archant’s new owner Newsquest closes five papers - @cambstimes, @dissmercury, Felixstowe Extra, Thetford and Watton Times and West Suffolk Mercury - that are ‘too far gone’ to survive holdthefrontpage.co.uk/2022/…

Our Chair @Chelseagirl78 made it clear today. Homophobia, Biphobia and transphobia has no place in Football. @CPSUK #RetireTheChant #NoToHate #FootballForAll 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ #LGBTQ
⚖️ Homophobic chanting has no place in football. Nigel Carrington, 53, has been fined for using discriminatory language at the away end of a Chelsea v Tottenham Premier League game in January. cps.gov.uk/london-south/news… #DontCrossTheLine #RetireTheChant

⚽️ Nobody goes to a football match to get abused for who they are. Homophobic chants discriminate and can be prosecuted as a hate crime. Let's all enjoy today’s game for what it is. #NoToHate #CarabaoCupFinal #LGBTHM22 @ChelseaPride_ @ChelseaFC

📢 Say no to hate. Say no to homophobia. Say no to racism. We will prosecute so-called fans who shout homophobic comments at football games or who post abuse on social media. @ChelseaPride_ @ChelseaFC #NoToHate #LGBTHM22

Everyone is welcome in the football world. Everyone is welcome at @LFC. Just as #LFC proved when we became the first @premierleague club officially be at a Pride event (@LCRPride 2012). Let’s be the first to condemn all hatred. – at Liverpool, England

Replying to @virginmedia
@virginmedia do you have a number where I can speak to a real person and not a bot. On Tuesday you carried out work in area, cutting Internet for day. Since then we have been left with no Internet. We both work from home so need Internet to do our jobs. Current estimate for

Fixing our issue is 7/7. This is not acceptable. We need to know what you can do to provide a temporary solution.

A great game vs @StMungos (not sure if you have a sports Twitter?) this evening! Excellent sporting all round but Saints took home the win 17-8! Great job guys! We also remembered to take photos this evening for once.🥳@CharitySoftball

Angela has been perhaps the biggest inspiration for me from so many points of view. I count myself very lucky for having had her as my colleague. A caring, funny and friendly journalist who fascinated me through her dedication, humanity and creativity. saffronwaldenreporter.co.uk/…
