The next time someone tells you that sociology "isn't rocket science". Tell them that's true, it's much more complex.

Farewell to Suleiman al-Obeid, the 'Palestinian Pelé'. A talent who gave hope to countless children, even in the darkest of times.

I am truly lost for words. Until yesterday, I never thought there would be something that would frighten me of going back to Liverpool after the break. Team mates come and go but not like this. It’s going to be extremely difficult to accept that Diogo won’t be there when we go

Very difficult end to the season, coming so close and for it to now feel so far is tough! Thank you to the board, staff, players and supporters-you have been magnificent all season. From Weston away, Rochdale at home, to Torquay Utd in the trophy….its been a rollercoaster.

When @LewisHamilton was growing up outside of London, there were no museums near him, there wasn’t much diversity, and there was certainly no money for clothes. “My family and I spent it all on racing,” the Formula 1 star recalls. https://t.co/fnE4ycne30
