When Maya Jama compared Majorca to Vegas, Toni remarked: "I get a lot more drinks and shed a lot less tears in Vegas." She also said her biggest lesson in the villa was: "Don't out up with sh**** men." Considering Harrison was in the audience in the garden, that was absolutely brutal. She added: "Got a few flights to catch but I'm sure we'll make it work." Toni also said that Cach told her that he loved her last night in the villa and she said it right back! She added: "We can be emotional together. And that's what I needed the whole time I have been in here." But Harrison wasn't too happy and appeared to roll his eyes and fake clap for the happy couple. But fans of the show were quick to notice how unhappy he really was. One wrote on social media: "THE WAY THE CAMERA WENT STRAIGHT TO HARRISON WHEN TONI MENTIONED SHITTY MEN LMAOOOOOO." Cash and Toni WIN Love Island and bag £50k as raunchiest ever series ends Another added: "Lauren and Harrison's faces when they found out Cach told Toni he loves her. "Are so ironic considering Harrison said he doesn't love Lauren on live yesterday MWAHAHAHAHAGAG." "You see Harrison and Lauren's faces drop when Toni admitted Cach said I love you and she told him she loved him too," asked another. While another said: "HARRISON'S FACE WHEN TONI SAID CACH SAID HE LOVED TONI FOLLOWED BY A BIG GULP OF HIS DRINK. "MAN DOES NOT WANT LAUREN, MAN STILL WANTS TONI HAHAHAHAHA NEVER." "Harrison and Lauren looking at each other and raising their eyebrows when Toni and Cach said he told her he loves her.. what a bitter couple," added another fan of the show. And another simply stated: "Harrison is jealous." But in the dramatic climax after two months on-screen, host Maya Jama told the loved up couple - Toni and Cach - they'll be taking home £50,000. Angel and Ty finished in fourth place, with the smitten couple saying they couldn't wait for their relationship to start in the outside world. In third place was Yas and Jamie who gushed about their romantic connection.

Morecambe on brink of being thrown out of National League as final deadline is missed
Owner oversaw a club kicked out of a league in a different sport NO MORE Morecambe on brink of being thrown out of National League as final deadline is missed MORECAMBE are on the verge of being chucked out of the National League. Panjab Warriors were trying to buy the 105-year-old club from owner Jason Whittingham's Bond Group Investments. 1 Morecambe have missed the final deadline and are on the brink of being kicked out the National League Credit: Shutterstock Editorial But tonight it was confirmed that a deal had not been reached. The Shrimps are suspended from football's fifth tier until August 20 over a failure to comply with the league's rules. And if they fail to satisfy National League chiefs, they will be expelled. It now seems likely they will go the same way as Bury and Macclesfield and be forced to reform. READ MORE IN FOOTBALL 'OFFICIALLY SHUT' Iconic ex-EFL team set to fold after 105yrs as shock statement released Morecambe are set to go out of business in the coming days, with a statement from Panjab Warriors last week saying: "As of Monday, 4th August: The Club is officially shut. "£0 in the bank and no cash on site means operations cannot continue. "Senior staff have taken the heart-breaking decision to stop working after months of holding the Club together under impossible circumstances. "Without an agreement today: The Club will rapidly disintegrate. SUN VEGAS WELCOME OFFER: GET £50 BONUS WHEN YOU JOIN "Staff and players are leaving - soon there will be nothing left to sell. "Jason Whittingham your legacy is in your hands. "You will be remembered in Morecambe not for your intentions, but for the outcome of today. Do the right thing, stop the suffering." Morecambe were relegated from League Two last season following an 18-year spell in the EFL. They are currently suspended by the fifth tier National League for failing "to meet its financial obligations for the 2025/2026 season". This all comes after the Panjab Warriors had a takeover bid approved by the EFL in June. After the board tried to force through the sale, Whittingham responded by sacking the entire board before later inviting them back. Rugby club Worcester Warriors were expelled from the Premiership under Whittingham's management three years ago.

Rio Ngumoha shines to fuel Liverpool's optimism for new season
A vacancy has arisen on the left of Liverpool's forward line and an early, eye-catching application to fill the role has arrived from a 16-year-old. Rio Ngumoha further enhanced his first team claims with a sparkling display against Athletic Bilbao that underlined the formidable strength, and options, available to Arne Slot. Ngumoha opened the scoring superbly and teed up a second goal for Darwin Núñez inside five minutes at Anfield in the first of two pre-season friendlies against the Basque club. A packed Anfield crowd had to wait for the second fixture to catch a first glimpse of new signings Florian Wirtz, Milos Kerkez, Giorgi Mamardashvili, Hugo Ekitiké and Jeremie Frimpong. Ngumoha kept them entertained and whetted the appetite prior to their appearances as Liverpool recorded a comfortable 4-1 win in match one. The left winger is not eligible to sign a professional contract until he turns 17 on the 29th of this month but showed why Chelsea were livid when Liverpool tempted him away from their academy last summer. In only the second minute of his second senior appearance at Anfield the teenager, who made his full debut against Accrington Stanley in the FA Cup last season, set off from the halfway line and, with Athletic defenders all in retreat, curled an excellent finish into the bottom corner of the Kop goal from 20 yards.

Ngumoha produced something similar in Liverpool's previous pre-season outing against Yokohama F Marinos last week. That goal came on the day Luis Díaz completed his £65.5m transfer to Bayern Munich, creating an opening on the left that could be filled by any one of Cody Gakpo, Wirtz, Ekitiké and perhaps the 16-year-old talent from London. His display was enough to prompt chants of 'Rio' from the Kop and a song in his honour from the singer who appeared during the interval. Ngumoha's emergence – predicted with confidence by John Terry when he lamented the youngster's exit from Chelsea – is timely for Liverpool as they await Newcastle's next move on Alexander Isak. There may not be a rush to replace Díaz given the options already at Slot's disposal. The Premier League champions can afford to wait on their prime target for the No 9 role and leave their £110m offer for Isak on Newcastle's table. Three minutes after his individual goal Ngumoha headed down a Ben Doak cross for Núñez to convert from close range. Anyone looking for clues as to Núñez's next step – with Al Hilal interested in taking him to the Saudi Pro League – will have noted the hand-on-the-heart celebration that followed from the £60m-rated Uruguay international in front of the Kop. A glimpse of Liverpool's past and future, perhaps. Doak and Harvey Elliott, two other players who could leave Anfield in this window, were also on the scoresheet in the first contest against Ernesto Valverde's side. Ngumoha's footwork and pace also impressed in the 67 minutes he was on the pitch. He received a well-earned rousing reception when replaced by Trent Koné-Doherty. The opening game started at 5pm as scheduled despite supporters in the Main Stand having to be evacuated just over an hour before kick off due to a false alarm. Liverpool's first appearance on home soil since the tragic deaths of Diogo Jota and his brother, André Silva, was marked by the club's former captain Phil Thompson and Athletic president, Jon Uriarte, laying wreaths in front of the Kop before the game. There was a moving moment 20 minutes in when everyone inside the stadium rose to their feet to applaud Liverpool's number 20. Play stopped and players from both teams also joined in the applause for Jota and Silva. Slot was without Virgil van Dijk for both Bilbao games due to illness. The Liverpool head coach indicated the club captain could be a doubt for Sunday's Community Shield against Crystal Palace. Conor Bradley and Joe Gomez were also absent through injury, forcing Slot to deploy 18-year-old midfielder Trey Nyoni in central defence for the first Bilbao contest and Luca Stephenson at right-back, while goalkeeper Alisson was unavailable having left Liverpool's recent pre-season tour of Asia due to personal reasons. Summer signings Freddie Woodman and Armin Pecsi filled in for the first choice goalkeeper, playing one half each, while Georgia international Mamardashvili made his Anfield bow in the second game behind a central defence of Ibrahima Konaté and Wataru Endo. That is one department where the champions appear light at present. Ngumoha could add to their riches up front. Liverpool also won the second game 3-2 thanks to goals from Mo Salah, who missed a penalty late on, and a Cody Gakpo brace. Guardian
