I see a pic about Mansfield extending Callum Elder's loan from Leicester...? The root cause of all the ills in English sport, undeniably. EDIT: Ah, Howezers had clicked on the Beeb's union tab and got a football story for his pains.
I had it all done perfectly the first time and then closed it accidentally. Couldn't be bothered to check the second time.
In Norway the sport pages have had Martin Odegaard on the front page every day for a month. There is no football being played in Norway currently (but a considerable amount of other sports), the bloke is 16, and at best he is among the world's 2,000 best footballers at present. It is a pan-European disease at the very least.
How the fuck are we in a position where the stags need to ask the foxes for a loan? I remember a time when the hoofed mammals of the woodland could've filled a hollow tree trunk with elderberries. If anyone could be expected to have a monopoly on elders it would be the industrious badger, not the scaborous fox. It'll be like the great Acorn Crash of the eighties - squirrels throwing themselves out of trees. You mark my words.
