  2. 'Penny drops' for Foxes Maguirepublished at 17:59 British Summer Time 11 July 2018

    Harry Maguire's emergence as an integral part of the England team has been one of the stories of this World Cup, but I am not surprised it has happened for him here in Russia.

    Sometimes, the penny just drops for a player at a tournament, and it is the right time for you, in the right team.

    For me, that moment came at the 2002 World Cup. That was when I found my way, and developed a total and clear understanding of my position.

    It seems like Maguire, a ball-playing defender like me, is doing something similar.

  4. Hundreds of new student flats set for approvalpublished at 17:56 British Summer Time 11 July 2018

    Hundreds of new student flats could be built in Nottingham over four different sites.

    Next week, planning bosses at Nottingham City Council will vote on four different student accommodation schemes, which between them would see almost 800 new flats built over the coming months. All are expected to be approved.

    The largest of the schemes is a 12-storey building with 462 bedrooms, on Waterway Street West, near the Vat and Fiddle pub. The building would range from five stories high to 12 stories high, which the Nottingham Civic Society has said is "far too tall".

    A second, unrelated scheme is on Station Street where the old job centre was. Developers are set to build 323 new student flats here along with a gym, reception area and coffee shop. Unusually, the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) has raised concerns about the development, because part of the new building would overlook the Crown Court.

    A third development would involve the demolition of a single-storey flat roofed furniture store on Huntingdon Street. Planning permission was granted for 86 flats on the site, but developers have now come back and asked for additional permissions to be granted. The city archaeologist has said supervision of construction will be needed due to the potential that there could be medieval remains.

    The fourth is a smaller scheme for 23 apartments on Gregory Street.
