Herman was a great man and it was a pleasure and a privilege to work with him. Hope to see a lasting tribute somewhere.
We are deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Lord Herman Ouseley after a short illness. Lord Ouseley was a titan in tackling discrimination in football over the 25 years he was chair of Kick It Out, having founded Let’s Kick Racism Out of Football in 1993. He was also a fearless advocate for underrepresented and disadvantaged communities and will be sorely missed. Lord Ouseley’s vision to set up Kick It Out was the first true structural change in football to take on a problem that had blighted the game for decades. Fans and participants are now more aware of discrimination and how to challenge it, which is a legacy of the tenacity and vigour he showed in ensuring football continued to change. We owe him a huge debt of gratitude and vow to continue that legacy for the benefit of future generations. Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this difficult time. 🔗:

This story was a lot of fun to film and work on alongside @MarkAnsell. Good luck to Doncaster's own Edward Hardy - better known as The Farm Boy - as he makes his professional debut tonight!

I'm sure I know a few journalists in South Yorkshire who may be interested in this job opportunity at the BBC 👇🏻

Update: the future of The Leadmill will be decided at a later date yet to be determined after a judge accepted an application from the venue's legal team to adjourn the possession hearing bought by owners Electric Group. More on @BBCLookNorth shortly.
