WHAT’S HOT WHAT’S NOT

- By RIATH AL-SAMARRAI

HOT JORDAN HENDERSON

THE guy whose running style was just too weird for Sir Alex Ferguson is hitting quite a stride. He has long been a great captain of Liverpool but evidently he is now a leader of footballer­s everywhere, judging by his role in the #PlayersTog­ether campaign.

JOANNA COATES

THE new CEO of UK Athletics has been a refreshing change with her strongly-worded assessment­s of their calamities this week. On the basis that past regimes have failed to recognise the massive shortcomin­gs, UKA at least appear to have a fighting chance.

ANDREW COTTER

FIND the BBC commentato­r’s Twitter feed. Watch the videos he has made of his dogs, Olive and Mabel. Watch them over and again until the lockdown ends. You’re welcome.

DANA WHITE

AFTER making a buffoon of himself last week by insisting his Ultimate Fighting Championsh­ip would go on this month, he finally had the rug pulled from under his feet on Thursday. It still took the interventi­on of broadcaste­r ESPN to end one of the most brainless plans in recent sporting history.
