“I’d be homeless without Derek Adams.” One anonymous member of staff told me this after the now sacked Morecambe manager had paid their rent whilst they went without wages. Panjab Warriors can do as they wish now they own the club, but Adams’ contributions go beyond the pitch.

Let’s clarify this deliberate cold exposure thing once and for all. There is so much nonsense out there about cold and fear of cold, etc. It’s pretty simple when you look at it through the lens of the hormones and neural circuits involved. It also makes clear how to do it right.
