Week in, week out

PARADISE IS LOST ON OLLYIt doesn't matter how much stick Scottish football takes, you can always guarantee that the Old Firm game will entice the big names through the turnstiles.

But it wasn't former Celtic manager Gordon Strachan or new Scotland coach Craig Levein that caught our eye on the Week In Week Out desk. Or even Rod Stewart and Penny Lancaster in the directors' box. Rather, it was the bizarre sight of Olly Murs being paraded on the Celtic Park pitch at half-time. Olly who?

Come on, you can't have forgotten already. He was one of Simon Cowell's singers on the X-Factor last month and finished runner-up to Geordie Joe McElderry.

Why Celtic asked Murs, from Essex, to make the Paradise windfall draw is anyone's guess but the Rangers supporters certainly enjoyed berating him with chants of 'There's only one Joe McElderry'.

Reality TV enthusiasts will be well aware that Murs is not the only 'singing sensation' to make it out on to the pitch at half-time this season. Susan Boyle wrapped a green-and-white scarf round her neck and waved to supporters during the 1-0 Europa League defeat to Hamburg back in October.

It'll be Jedward next, surely.

JANA: I MADE A BOOB

Australia's Olympic hurdler Jana Rawlinson has caused a stir after revealing that she has had her breast implants taken out because she was worried they were affecting her chances of medal success.

In an interview with Woman's Day magazine, Rawlinson admitted she spent $13,000 in the past 14 months getting the augmentation, only to have the cosmetic procedure reversed. "Yep, I'm back to being flat as a pancake," she said.

Rawlinson, a two-time world champion in the 400 metre hurdles, added: "Every time I raced I panicked about whether I was letting my country down, all for my own vanity. I absolutely loved having bigger boobs, but I don't want to short-change Australia either. I want to feel the most athletic I can, to know that I'm standing on the track in London (2012 Olympics] the fittest I can be."

However, Rawlinson has not ruled out going back under the knife and having the fake breasts re-implanted once she hangs up her running shoes. "I can always get my breasts enhanced again when I finish my career," she said. "I know there are no medals for being beautiful."

BERTI NOT SO BOLD

Berti Vogts made bold predictions when he was the Scotland manager. "I will be with my team in Germany in 2006 on the pitch – not in the stands with a hot dog and Coca-Cola," he famously said during World Cup qualifying.

These days he is not so bold. Having just signed a new two-year deal to manage Azerbaijan, Vogts said: "My primary goal is not for Azerbaijan to qualify for the European Championships in Poland and Ukraine in 2012, but to develop young players so they can be a force in years to come."
