I wish I'd asked the fella for a photo - he was a dead ringer for the old man from Up, with the flat head and glasses I play it all the time when I'm out with mates in a pub' Sean Dyche on magic, lookalikes and dancing

Anyone who knows me will tell you I always do the napkin trick at dinner, where you make the napkin elevate Dyche even had a pub named after him in Burnley (Image credit: Getty) My kids say, Oh no when I start, but there's always someone at another table zooming in. The disappearing thumb is a favourite and I love the cigarette rolling across the table trick. Kids love that one!

Why Leeds United fans may be denied manager wish once again as Daniel Farke under pressure

Carlos Corberan has been linked with Leeds United every time their managerial vacancy has come up since Marcelo Bielsa's abrupt and unpopular dismissal in February 2022 and that's no coincidence. Bielsa's popularity among Leeds fans cannot be overstated. He ended their long, long wait to return to the Premier League, led them to an impressive ninth-place finish in their first season, and did it all with a style of football previously unseen at Elland Road.

Hayes on her feminist dad, anxiety and feeling like a grandparent to players

It means different things at different stages. The older I get, the more I think about the importance of joy within it, especially when it's your job. You have to always deal with the realities of trying to get a result every week. Enjoy it. That's the reason you loved it, it's the reason you grew up playing, it's the reason you coach. Joy is what it means to me.
