A Liverpool football fan who suffered life-changing injuries in the Hillsborough disaster has died.  Andrew Devine was injured in the stadium disaster in which 96 people died as a result of the crush at the FA Cup semi-final against Nottingham Forest in 1989. The 55-year-old, described as a "much-loved son, brother and uncle", had been supported by his family and a team of dedicated carers. He died on Tuesday and in a statement they said they welcomed the coroner’s conclusion that Mr Devine "was unlawfully killed, making him the 97th fatality of the tragic events that occurred on April 15, 1989". "We were blessed to have had Andrew with us for 32 years”. Paying tribute, Liverpool FC, which released the statement on behalf of the family, said Mr Devine continued to attend matches when possible and in doing so "defied expectations that he would not survive for six months after the tragedy".

There’s 17 gold medals up for grabs at the Olympics Games today. But so far we’ve seen Britain's two-time gold medallist Helen Glover being ruled out of another Olympics rowing bid after she and Polly Swann finished fourth in the women's pair. "In Rio I said it was my last one. This time I'm saying 'no, it's definitely it'," says Glover. Emily Craig and Imogen Grant missed out on a medal by 0.01 seconds in the lightweight women's double sculls and so this means the only rowing medal was a silver won by Harry Leask, Angus Groom, Tom Barras and Jack Beaumont in a tight men's quadruple sculls race on Wednesday.

Ok, it’s probably too early to mention this and 149 days is a very long countdown. But a letter to Father Christmas written decades ago has been found stuck up a chimney. Are you the Robert Crampton, who wished for a “cowboy suit and guns and a hat and everything", the chimney sweeps are looking for? 

Next, it’s been decades since harvest mice have been seen in one English meadow but they’re back. The mice from a zoo in Scotland were reintroduced for a rewilding project. Watch as staff tell them to "make good choices" as they head off into the hedgerows of their new home.

And finally, meet the boy who dreams about playing football for England. Mikey Poulli had been scouted by the FA but was left unable to play when lost his sight. However, an audible ball means he’s heading in the right direction to maybe one day play for the country's blind football team.
