AC Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri and Mike Maignan excited for pre-season friendly with Perth Glory
Perth is turning red and black as European soccer giants AC Milan are making their presence felt ahead of their second game in WA in as many years. The Italian powerhouse have landed in WA off the back of two high-profile pre-season clashes with Arsenal and Liverpool in Asia, and will face Perth Glory on Thursday night at HBF Park. It follows on from Milan's previous trip to Perth, which saw them face fellow Italian side AS Roma in front of more than 56,000 people at Optus Stadium last May. The Italians have brought several star names down under, including American ace Christian Pulisic, talismanic Portugese forward Rafael Leao and internationally-capped Englishmen Fikayo Tomori and Ruben Loftus-Cheek. With Deputy Premier Rita Saffioti spruiking Thursday's match against the Glory as a near sell-out, coach Massimiliano Allegri and captain Mike Maignan spoke of their excitement at finishing off their Asia-Pacific tour in style. Allegri, said he had appreciated the warm reception from fans in WA, who lined the Crown Towers lobby on Sunday night to greet the club upon arrival. 'I'm honored to represent AC Milan for the first time in Western Australia and in Australia generally,' Allegri said via an interpreter. 'I recognise the huge following that AC Milan has across this country, and I'm looking forward to not only the game on Thursday night, but everything that surrounds it.' Maignan, who has established himself as the French international team's no.1 goalkeeper, said through an interpreter he was looking forward to playing the Glory. 'I'm very honoured to lead my team into Perth and Western Australia. I'm very proud of his club, and I'm looking forward to showing not only what Italian football is on the park, but the culture and everything else that's around AC Milan,' he said. Players from the club also visited Perth Children's Hospital on Monday to greet young fans.

Would you go off-grid? This woodland cabin is on sale for £165,000
If you dream of escaping the rat race, a property that has just come up for sale in Northumberland may be just the tonic. The off-grid woodland cabin, called Stanholme, was built in 1926 and for its current custodians, Tom and Glory, has been life-changing. Tom got the keys just days before the 2020 lockdown. He says: 'I had no idea that the world was about to change. But the timing meant I had space, peace, and nature to ground me through everything. I couldn't have imagined a much better place to live.' The couple told This is Money: 'What we love the most is the peace and quiet and that there is no traffic noise.' Over the last five years, Tom, who was later joined by Glory, have been growing their own food, tending to the land and embracing woodland life. However, with the arrival of their first child earlier this year, they are looking to move to a new home. Glory said: 'This place has given us so much. It taught us how to live simply, live slowly and really live with the land. Now, as our family grows, we're looking for a new kind of space. But we'll always carry this place with us.' Tom told This is Money: 'We are going to miss the woodland dawn chorus. It's so loud and there are so many birds that it wakes you up most mornings.' The couple hope to pass Stanholme on to someone who shares the same respect for nature and the slower rhythm of off-grid life. They think the cabin could be ideal for retired couples - or even doomsday preppers who want to live self-sufficiently. It is being sold for offers over £165,000. The cabin is kitted out with solar panels and is fully off-grid, meaning there will be no electricity bills to contend with. The property is exempt from council tax or the newly implemented second homes tax. It is tucked away in the ancient woodland of Whittle Dene in Northumberland, ensuring there is no road or traffic noise. The cabin is only accessible on foot through Whittle Burn Woods, with on-street parking available five minutes away. The cabin is one of a small number of chalets, cabins, bungalows, huts or summer houses nestled in the glade at Whittle Dene. According to GFW, the estate agency selling the cabin, the cabins were built as countryside getaways by people from Tyneside's industrial areas. The cabins also housed evacuees during the Second World War. The woods surrounding the two-bedroom cabin are said to be haunted by the evil spirit of Long Lonkin, a notorious criminal from the 1200s. The cabin is brimming with rustic charm. Inside, it has a small entrance porch, an open-plan living and dining area with a log burner, a compact kitchen, two bedrooms, and a bathroom with a roll-top bath, toilet and washbasin. While the cabin is off-grid, it still offers a good level of comfort. There are large double glazed windows fitted throughout the cabin, which help fill the cabin with light and a sense that you are at one with nature. The cabin stands in three interlinked plots that have been carefully nurtured over 45 years. The outdoor space is enhanced with cobblestone paths and fruit trees. A geodome provides space for growing vegetables and herbs throughout the year, but this could be turned into a greenhouse. The cabin also comes with a decked area, a fire pit, tool shed and an outdoor compost toilet. At the south of the woodland lies the ruined remains of a water-driven mill, which was used to mill corn and bleach cotton until its demise in the 1800s. The mill pond has become overgrown with willow, alder, Dutch rush and opposite-leaved golden saxifrage. The cabin had been on an uninterrupted one year rolling lease for the past 100 years and Tom and Glory are currently in negotiations to extend the lease term to 20 years. The property can be inhabited for 51 weeks of the year. The cabin cannot be mortgaged or sub-let and no fences, hedges or new boundaries can be created at the property. Lindsay French, a partner at GFW, the estate agency selling the cabin, said: 'This property is truly one of a kind. Stanholme isn't just a cabin, it's a piece of living history. 'Its rare combination of character, craftsmanship, and complete off-grid functionality, is unlike anything we've seen on the open market.' How to find a new mortgage Borrowers who need a mortgage because their current fixed rate deal is ending, or they are buying a home, should explore their options as soon as possible. Buy-to-let landlords should also act as soon as they can. Quick mortgage finder links with This is Money's partner L&C > Mortgage rates calculator > Find the right mortgage for you What if I need to remortgage? Borrowers should compare rates, speak to a mortgage broker and be prepared to act. Homeowners can lock in to a new deal six to nine months in advance, often with no obligation to take it. Most mortgage deals allow fees to be added to the loan and only be charged when it is taken out. This means borrowers can secure a rate without paying expensive arrangement fees. Keep in mind that by doing this and not clearing the fee on completion, interest will be paid on the fee amount over the entire term of the loan, so this may not be the best option for everyone. What if I am buying a home? Those with home purchases agreed should also aim to secure rates as soon as possible, so they know exactly what their monthly payments will be. Buyers should avoid overstretching and be aware that house prices may fall, as higher mortgage rates limit people's borrowing ability and buying power. What about buy-to-let landlords Buy-to-let landlords with interest-only mortgages will see a greater jump in monthly costs than homeowners on residential mortgages. This makes remortgaging in plenty of time essential and our partner L&C can help with buy-to-let mortgages too. How to compare mortgage costs The best way to compare mortgage costs and find the right deal for you is to speak to a broker. This is Money has a long-standing partnership with fee-free broker L&C, to provide you with fee-free expert mortgage advice. Interested in seeing today's best mortgage rates? Use This is Money and L&Cs best mortgage rates calculator to show deals matching your home value, mortgage size, term and fixed rate needs.
