Mike Donovan The headline in my local paper tells me " SAS ordered to pay 13,000 euros compensation to a patient who fell from a hospital lavatory seat. "So", snorts teenage soccer legend and younger son Simon, "That´s why our lads in Iraq haven´t got body armour. We´re too busy paying compensation for dodgy loo seats. 13,000 euros, wow, that´s nearly as much as Mr. B. Robson is asking on e bay for this signed photo of Jason Koumas.
