Leicester City footballers disgrace their country and supporters.
"The three Leicester City footballers accused of sexually assaulting three women in a Spanish hotel room returned to jail last night after lawyers for the club failed in a renewed bid to have them freed on bail. Paul Dickov, Keith Gillespie and Frank Sinclair spent a fifth night in the Sangonera Jail in Murcia on the order of a senior judge who was handed the case yesterday and was expected to make a decision on bail by the end of the week. Hopes of an imminent release for the players, jailed for the alleged attack at a luxury hotel in La Manga last Monday, were dashed when the lawyer for the three women said she would continue to oppose bail unless new evidence emerged to challenge the allegations made by her clients".

Personally I'm tired of British football dragging itself into the headlines for all the wrong reasons. Why can't a British side win an international competition and hit the news because of that, instead of making headlines as a result of hooliganism or of the bad behaviour of professional players. If you want to read the rest of this story you can read it here, in the Independent.
