Toilet humour has long been the safe haven of your Daily, and we are always mindful of notable bog-related stories and milestones, especially in relation to football. What a delight it was to learn that Big Website columnist Adrian Chiles has a West Brom-themed urinal in his house. Spare a thought for the Barnsley fan who took the rest room a little too literally, and was rescued from a deserted Oakwell after falling asleep on the loo at half-time during a 2015 defeat by Fleetwood. “He had no shoes on and had lost his mobile phone and his hat,” elaborated a Barnsley fire station spokesperson. And who can forget when, at the height of his fame at Manchester City, Mario Balotelli popped into a local college to use the facilities in 2012. “Balotelli parked his Bentley outside, then came in and was asking where the toilets were, then he went to the teachers’ staff room,” a student told the Manchester Evening News. “After that he was just walking round the campus like he owned the place.”

May I suggest that Padhraig contact Noble Francis for a replacement mug. I am sure his trophy cabinet will be overflowing with cups. He could even wrap it in a scarf when posting” – Callum Taylor.
