So sad to hear that Arsenal superfan Maria has passed away💔 If you've been to see Arsenal women, you've definitely chanted the chants she wrote. What an icon. Here's her story from when I spoke to her a couple of years ago:

Stadiums could put food that's no longer going to be needed this weekend to very good use by giving it to foodbanks like these Likewise, there will be lots of hotel bookings not used now, could they go to people who are homeless?
