    EXCL: Shaun Wane is set to be named as England’s new rugby league coach. The former Wigan boss is believed to have got the nod over Wayne Bennett after the nightmare return of the Great Britain side.

    5 years today since I was attacked and left with a brain injury. I still believe I’m learning and recovering each day, some harder than others. Thank you for all the support and well wishes over the last 5 years.

    Replying to @GaryCarter_1979
    Having learnt to walk, talk, hold a pen, dress myself. After 4 of the most challenging years of my life, I have been discharged from Salford Royal Hospital. I will always have a brain injury but learned to live with it and make it a part of everyday life. Onwards and upwards.

    To say I am shocked would be an understatement! Such a privilege to have this award presented to me by Eddie and Stevo #O2mediaawards2019

    Journalist @GaryCarter_1979 almost died when he became the victim of an unprovoked attack in which he suffered catastrophic brain injuries. But remarkably, he fought back and this year has returned to the job he loves. He takes home our next @O2 Stand Out award #O2MediaAwards19

    Six years ago today I was what can only be described as a very, very lucky boy after I was attacked in London. But I'm still here, thanks to some pretty amazing staff and some pretty amazing people, particularly my wife Gemma. Time to celebrate.

    Die hard Salford fans Joseph and Paul have travelled down to Wembley simply to have their photo taken to mark Salford’s appearance in the Challenge Cup Final for the first time in 51 years. They are travelling back to Salford now in case the city goes to Tier 3 lockdown.
