DARLINGTON FC'S injured right back Luke Trotman tonight joined ITV's Love Island - and vowed to ruffle a few feathers.

The 22-year-old from Luton got injured in only Darlington's second game of the season and has not appeared since.

Of his appearance on Love Island, he said: "I wouldn't mind stepping on someone's toes. But I would probably ask them before. I like to think I would."

He says he is "energetic, positive and smiley" but admits he can also be a bit stubborn and "overly competitive".

Trotman has had a little taste of reality TV before, as his mother Beverley Trotman came sixth on The X Factor 13 years ago.

"I appeared on TV cheering her on in the audience," he said. "She's done a few musicals and she's in the Kingdom Choir now, but she didn't perform at Meghan and Harry's wedding."
