After 50 years with the BBC, English football commentator John Motson will retire at the end of the season.

He has covered 10 World Cups, 29 FA cup finals, 10 European championships and more than 200 England games, but says the funniest moment of his career happened at Derby's Baseball Ground.

He said: "Probably when they had to paint the penalty spot at Derby when there was so much mud on the pitch they couldn't find it.

"It was a great moment, the groundsmen came round with a pot of paint and a brush and the referee measured out the 12 yards and they actually painted the penalty spot while they all wait, that was probably the funniest moment I think."

A Leicestershire farmer said the "whirlwind" travelled the length of a field.
