One of the best things about this series #INDvENG - my 11 year-old said last night, โ€œDad, can you wake me up early tomorrow because I really want to watch the cricket.โ€ How much he wants to watch we will see in the next 15 mins when I wake him up.

Young hockey players in the UK havenโ€™t played competitive hockey almost a year. They like my son have missed it, it is a huge part of their lives. Today a local field froze and my son got skate outside - the smile after was huge. To skate outside for Brits is a dream. ๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿฅ…๐Ÿ’

I might be a little bit biased but what about this goal? An amazing piece of skill from 10 year old @Mcr_Storm Academy forward Connor Lee scoring top corner from his knees @EIHA_Official Nationals @ice_sheffield . @BarDown @IIHFHockey

A shame that @BBCSheffield & @swfc couldnโ€™t come to a deal.I feel for @Gids1980 & @robstaton because it makes their job extremely difficult on a daily and weekly basis. Having a local radio coms deal is for the fans & worth more than the money which in football terms is tiny.

Just back to the apartment after a frazzling yet brilliant last 5 hours. @TeamGBicehockey wanted it today and would not rest until they beat Italy. It was a gutsy performance and every single one if them deserves full credit. On a personal note so much fun to commentate on.

Good luck to Paul Heckingbottom, someone who has always been great to deal with.Sheffield United in my experience have always been better with someone who understands the SY footballing landscape and he does. Good to see another young British boss given a chance. #twitterblades

Wearing a piece of Sheffield history today. I think the buzz in Sheffield around the WSG in 1991 helped cement my love for all sport and taught me to enjoy watching the competition and high class performances whatever discipline. I was 13.

Been great to be back on @BBCSheffield . I have done lots of fun work things over the years but very little beats being on air and talking to people. Thanks for the nice messages.

I would love to be in Sheffield today to celebrate the life of Brendan Ingle.I know he will have a great turnout as #Sheffield pays its respects to one of the greats. My thoughts are with the Ingle family today as we all say goodbye to a wonderful human. #Brendan #legend

Congrats or @PetrCech who won his first game of hockey after signing with Guilford. After a 2-2 game he made the game winning save in the shootout. Fairytale stuff.

Totally understand why West Ham fans are upset about the handball decision. However the officials implemented the laws, and had the arm not touched the ball it would have been cleared to reletive safety. Yes it was unintentional, but it was still handball. #twitterblades

Home time after a remarkable 10 days in Slovakia. So many memories that will stay with me forever. The airport is full of GB fans in a fuzzy state of delirium. โ€œDid that really just happen?โ€ It did -

Massive, massive win for GB. A first top flight win in regulation since the 60s, I am told. Remember these players didnโ€™t have a regular season and have taken 4 points from their last two games. Outstanding work, some wonderful finishing plus heart and passion. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

I didnโ€™t know Steve Wright very well, but a while I ago I got the chance to read the sport on Radio 2 for a few weeks. The first job of the day was to deliver a minute headline read into Steveโ€™s show. You had to go into his studio and read in front of him. It was intimidating

Early start this morning. I am really proud to be taking the @Mcr_Storm Academy U11s to the National Championships today. Should be a great experience for the kids and huge reward for their work on and off the ice this season. They are a lovely group of players. Good luck all.
