His final game saw him red carded for kicking Mark Lawrenson in the face, leaving the pitch, breaking into the Brighton and Hove dressing room and taking a poo poo in Lawrenson's kit bag.

Incredible. The man should be given some sort of posthumous honour.

At least he'll be able to say he had a 100% win record as England manager.

This is bringing home to me what it is we've lost. A man that goes to a restaurant and necks an industrial quantity of Hardy's from a completely inappropriate drinking vessel is the sort of man that English footballers can respect.

JFH is agreeing to work with the agency in some unspecified capacity, in exchange for then agreeing to look at signing players where they get a cut of the transfer fee.

It's a clear conflict of interest and it's probably illegal under the bribery act too. They look at the substance of what's going on, not whatever paper thin window dressing is put around it.

This is seriously the best they can dig up on Harry loving Redknapp? Stick a Sky Sports microphone in front of him and he'd happily admit to dodgier stuff on live tv.

Why not go to Russia? They might have got the tournament through massive bribery, but so did everyone else. It’s a proper football country with loads of booze and mental fans, it would be fun.

quote:

Two Burundi officials have been imprisoned after the African country's president was allegedly "roughed up" in a football match they organised.

President Pierre Nkurunziza is a 'born-again' evangelical Christian who spends much of his time travelling Burundi with his own team, Haleluya FC. He travels with his own choir, "Komeza gusenga", which means "pray non-stop" in the local Kirundi language.

On 3 February, his team faced a side from the northern town of Kiremba.

Normally, the opposition is well aware they are playing against the country's president, and it has been said they go easy in the games, even perhaps allowing Nkurunziza to score.

But as the Kiremba team contained Congolese refugees who did not know they were playing against Burundi's president, they "attacked each time he had the ball and made him fall several times", a witness told AFP.

Kiremba's administrator Cyriaque Nkezabahizi and his assistant, Michel Mutama, were imprisoned on Thursday, the news agency reports.

AFP cited a judicial source as saying they had been arrested on charges of "conspiracy against the president".

Always take anything football journalists say about incidents in stadiums with a massive pinch of salt. It’s the only exciting thing they ever get to write about and two guys getting into a shoving match will be the Brixton uprising by the time it’s in the paper. Bonus points if someone manages to get a picture of a kid in front of flare smoke to use on the front page.

Pretty sure The Inbetweeners nicked it from a series of Kris Akabusi comedy sex stories that were a big viral hit circa 2006.
