Each week, Ben Hopkinson looks back at what’s happened the past 7 days and what was trending on Twitter with the Maritime Hashtag Minute. This week’s #MaritimeHashtagMinute was #GarethSouthgate. After falling just short of winning the European Championship following the loss in the final against Spain on Sunday, the England manager resigned from the role on Tuesday morning. View the Tweets below:

Wishing Gareth Southgate all the very best in the future. He brought pride, respect and a togetherness to @England that we hadn’t seen for a long time. He was close, very close to footballing immmortality and he always did the job with humility, decency and dignity. Thank you,…

Gareth Southgate changed the mentality of English football.

He leaves us believing again.
I’ve seen people saying that losing two finals will leave a mark.
Let’s reframe that…
Making two finals will leave a mark.
Thank you Gareth. ❤️

We are such armchair critics! #GarethSouthgate did a great job, he gave faith 2 EVERY England football fan Why do we insist on making the manager or any other player a scapegoat!? ONE team has to win. MORE than anything I want England men's to win a comp.

But 4th place & QF loss in @FIFAWorldCup finals, & 2 successive narrow RU at @EURO2024 finals is v good for #ThreeLions #England
Consistent performances, dependable players & solid talent ID & development
Dour :(
Well done #GarethSouthgate #Southgate
