That’s terrible news. Lovely man, generous and helpful, wonderful company, gifted writer.

Bringing back memories of Les Reed being sacked by then Premier League Charlton on Xmas Eve in 2006, a Sunday, and replaced by Alan Pardew at 7pm

Saw Geldof sing it live with the Boomtown Rats in 85. Very different delivery to the single, very angry in tone and so much more powerful for it.

Chelsea win again, 1-0, dominated and should have been more, yet Man Utd could have drawn as Malard hit bar in 90th minute.

No changes from either side at HT. Scrappy game in difficult conditions with Reiten penalty the only clear opportunity.

30 gone. Man U improved but yet to have a shot, even from long range, which would be worth a try in these conditions with a swirling wind tricky for the keeper facing it.

Reiten puts Chelsea 1-0 up from the spot after Ramirez felled by Tullis-Joyce. Man Utd, even with wind behind them, struggling to get out of their half.
