I love the Adver's method of implanting the synopsis of the story in the URLs.

I read a report recently suggesting that any story can be told in 140 characters (r.e. Twitter), but the Adver regularly better this mark Smiley

Are you sure this report wasn't the Guardian April Fool's joke?

That's the one.

I just assumed that part was true.

The title is classic glass half empty. I mean he dislocated his shoulder, but what if someone like Ifil had tackled him, or kicked the ball at him, he could have shattered into a billion tiny Irish pieces. Putting that back together would have been a nightmare.

A task not even all the kings horses and all the kings men could manage.
