Can't believe this (http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/3876322/What-hope-is-there-for-football-brSheffield-shamed-by-finger-yobs.html) made a "news" story. What next?

Please tell me that was at least a 'school' publication!
I love the headline!

It doesn't qualify as a news story, that's why it's in The Sun.

The Sun, Lord Azaghul, is, through various convoluted business structures, owned by Rupert Murdoch and has, sadly, the largest circulation of any newspaper in the U.K.

I think an even better and more misleading headline would have been:
Sports cause rude gestures, Ministry cancels all Sports! :p

Really off topic, but a few years ago a small local* paper had the single best headline I've ever seen. After a health food store van was robbed while unloading, with thieves making off with several boxes of carob bean products, headline was:

Pirates of the Carob Bean.

Well I thought it was good.

*Not local to me, a friend visiting a relative somewhere saw it and bought one to show us all.

It would probably be better written if it was school children

It is a surprising discovery, it was probably just some p*ssed off westham surpporting hack who's holding a two year old grudge...
