Yesterday's Observer carried a front page story that in an attempt to speed his recovery David Beckham is to receive treatment usually reserved for horses. The omens are good. Regular readers during the 1980s will remember that this is exactly what Roy Race prescribed for his team, although I doubt Beckham will be asked to go to the stables, as Race made his players. The Rovers naturally won their next game, which was some FA Cup final or European Super Cup. Sadly the story is missing, but you can catch up on the great man here.
