That was the best bit in the whole paper. Kayleigh from Essex explaining the Large Hadron Collider was my favourite.

Last time I checked News in Briefs had gone :(. There's a campaign to get rid of page 3 all together that keeps getting stronger and stronger. Not be long before it's gone I don't think. Can't say I'm bothered now the humour has gone!

Time to finish this season on a relative high(we didn't get relegated. And a renewed attempt in the summer to recruit Dawson from wba reserves and we could start next season with renewed optimism.We do now appear to have a half decent squad;and with Mark Davies starting the season fully fit;we could all be Happy Bunnies this time next year!

'Look who's a big girl now!' type stories, showing a 14 year old celeb in a bikini? Mail Online speciality, so I'm told.

PS I have a impression in my head of what people off here look like and that is ALMOST EXACTLY how I always pictured you. Except in my head there was a slightly different pattern on the underpants.

Yep, the hypocrisy of Paul Dacre knows no limits.

And I'm not going near that second line :D!

Somebody (who's probably NITK) is valuing Tim Ream at £4m.

Does that equate to Dawson and £1.5m?

I was at Hull that day when Ream ran away from the Hull strikers as he was a bit scared.

He's improved but still can't defend very well. Good on the ball, but I'd think any fee would be closer to £400,000 than £4M.......

Of course you wouldn't buy him. What use would he be to you?

Having had the misfortune both to be at Hull and, more recently, Reading, I'm not even sure he's improved that much. Rather, he's protected more which shines a light on his strengths (he's quick, at least in relation to our other, glacial, centre-halves; and, he's good on the ball), whilst hiding his weaknesses (his inability to defend). Away to both Reading and QPR he was still powder-puff, hesitant, and positionally inept. I'd be happy with £400k. Anything close to £4m would be astonishing.
