Preparing to watch Scotland's heroic victory over the Faroe Islands yesterday, I was perusing The Scotsman's preview of the match. Picking over the bones of Scotland's sorry draw with the puffin eaters in 2002, Allan Patullo conducted a 'Where Are They Now?' study of the squad that 'achieved' the 2-2 in Toftir.
Reaching erstwhile Sunderland striker Kevin Kyle, Pattullo writes: "Perhaps best known for his off-field dramas. Missed a match for Sunderland last season after scalding his testicles with boiling water while feeding his son."
What the hell? How does a fully-grown man manage to spill boiling water on his testicles whilst feeding his son? And why was he feeding his son boiling water? Footballers, generally, aren't the sharpest tools in the box, but surely that is quite an achievement.
