Ever wondered what happens if you slip on an Olympic diving board?

Don’t worry, it’s not as painful as it sounds.

AN UNFORTUNATE SLIP on an Olympic diving board ended with a painful-looking crash into the water and a wave of puns on Stephan Feck’s name.

The German was in action during the preliminary rounds of the men’s 3m springboard where his attempt at a forward 3 1/2 somersault ended about half a somersault too early in sort of a reverse belly-flop.

It could be worse. At least he was well clear of the board.

    Division 3 for Kildare is a disaster. 7-100 conceded is some amount to be shipped in and that’s against the second tier teams. Leinster football is looking in an awful state. Next year there will be only 3 Leinster teams in the top two division while Ulster will have 8 out of the 9.

    Fine character though he is, I think mickey Harte is hanging on for too long. Or perhaps they haven’t the heart to replace him, which would be understandable too.
