A new world record for the farthest throw in according to the Guinness book of records goes not to Rory Delap but to Danny Brooks – a british PE teacher and former gymnast.

His record throw of 49.78m equals half a football pitch.Not sure if Rory Delap is thinking of going to him for a few tips.There’s an unconfirmed rumour that the french team are trying to get him into their world cup squad to try out a new set play..He throws the ball in from the half line,the ref looks back briefly to say “wow” and Henry taps the ball into the goal with his hand.
