    Ian Darler

    Cambridge United groundsman Ian Darler believes he has spent about £30,000 of his own money on equipment over his 30 years looking after the Abbey Stadium pitch.

    Little wonder he is looking forward to Friday's FA Cup fourth-round visit of Manchester United.

    "My wife thinks I'm absolutely nuts, because we could have done a lot with £30,000," Darler tells BBC Look East. "But as the old song goes: I just get by with a little help from my friends."

    "Organisers tell me plastic models currently being handed out to school children around Rio so they can have something 'real' to play with and 'remind them the Games are coming'."

    The 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games begin in just over 18 months time in Brazil.

  12. Olympic gold would Trump world titlepublished at 16:21 Greenwich Mean Time 23 January 2015

    Judd Trump says winning an Olympic gold medal would be a better achievement than triumphing at the World Championship.

    The world governing body of snooker has submitted a bid to have the sport included at the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo.

    "If I could play there once in my lifetime and get the gold medal then I certainly think it would top winning the World Championship," said 25-year-old Trump, who lost in the Crucible final in 2011.

    A contender for story of the day - and we don't say that lightly - has popped in from Yorkshire.

    Parents, spectators and coaches at all youth rugby matches in the county have been told not to shout, cheer or even clap at games on the next two Sundays in an effort to improve touchline behaviour.

    The 'Silent Sundays' initiative has been backed by the Rugby Football Union, along with Yorkshire Carnegie chairman and former Lions coach Sir Ian McGeechan, after some referees reported increasing abuse from the sidelines. A letter announcing the Silent Sundays has been sent out to all clubs - with parents, coaches and volunteers being asked to comply.

  17. Stoke City news conferencepublished at 16:00 Greenwich Mean Time 23 January 2015

    Hughes on speculation about forward Bojan Krkic leaving: "It is a non-story as far as I am concerned. We want to build our team around players like him."

    On striker Peter Odemwingie's future after he returns from injury: "His impact was huge last season so we hope he can do that when he comes back. If he does then there will be talks."

  18. Stoke City news conferencepublished at 15:59 Greenwich Mean Time 23 January 2015

    Manager Mark Hughes has injury doubts over Jon Walters and Ryan Shawcross for the FA Cup fourth round tie, with the latter not training with the rest of the squad during the warm-weather camp in Dubai this week.

    "We got some real good work done," said Hughes of the trip. "We don't have a mid-season break, so the stresses and strains of Christmas can take their toll."
