    I'm working on a piece for the BBC about what it's like to be an estranged student at university for the first time. More than 9,000 students in the UK are estranged, yet many people aren't aware of the issues they face. DMs open. #journorequest @UKStandAlone @beccablandish

    Welcome to @officialFMRFC, the grassroots club where Jessie Lingard, Marcus Rashford and Danny Welbeck of @england all played. There’s a hole in the roof and they store their goals in a cargo crate.
