“They can’t be what they can’t see” “Instead of cursing the dark, light a candle” There’s so much light in our society that is drowned out by the incessant “noise” of the dark. We need to give more of a voice to the light that’s out there. #socialvalue

I covered #England under 10 managers, including some caretakers, very august names and figures among them. Not one of them achieved what #GarethSouthgate has, some with potentially exceptional sides in 98, 06 and 10. (Venables might have, but couldn't swallow his pride and do a

Sport has the power to transcend. Winning in sport isn’t just about the score. While results may leave a mark on a page, the true impact is felt in our hearts and minds. Thank you Gareth Southgate ❤️

Is there a reason why we have not moved on from numbers being pinned on to athletes’ skin tight aerodynamic speed suits?? #Paris2024

Wonderfully kind, thoughtful and generous when interviewing me after a challenging World Cup match. One of the really good ones. You’ve earned your next chapter Rob. Best of luck.

Just had the absolute pleasure of a round of golf and stay at Celtic Manor. What a truly beautiful part of the world. Matched by the dining options at the resort. Thoroughly recommend. #allstargolf2024

I loved the Lions for moments like this. An Englishman on the end of some sublime play from three Welsh legends in Neil Jenkins, Allan Bateman and Ieuan Evans. What an honour and a privilege.

In some communities there is often a belief that fate dictates circumstances, limiting a sense of agency to change, low aspiration and missed opportunities for economic mobility. We need to shift this mindset by focusing on empowerment and changing perceptions. #leadwithcare

Since my rugby days are long gone (last century!), I rarely get asked, ‘Hey, aren’t you that rugby player?’ anymore. So I thought it’s time I start asking for selfies to thank those who recognise me! Here’s to the lovely Rebecca & Lee, though Rebecca hadn’t a clue who I was! x

“I took a walk in the woods and came out taller than the trees.”Thoreau. Create environments where people feel as tall as the trees. By engaging with and fiercely caring for one another, we can uplift individuals with genuine connection. #CareUnlocksExcellence

The Haka in Paris this evening was absolutely unforgettable. The lighting, the silence of the crowd - pure theatre, a moment that gives you chills. Truly inspiring. I think the word is “slay” 😎
