Orient in the running for Olympic Stadium

Leyton Orient have applied for permission to move to the Olympic Stadium after the 2012 London Olympics, with the club's chairman Barry Hearn calling for West Ham to be ruled out of the running.

Hearn said last week that his club would be interested in becoming tenants at the Stratford site after the Olympic Park Legacy Company reopened the tender process to rent the stadium.
A deal with West Ham and Newham Council collapsed amid legal challenges, with the Government announcing last week that the stadium would remain in public ownership and be leased out.
Hearn believes the application to the Football League is significant, arguing that they would not sanction another member club - West Ham - moving closer to Orient's home if it affected their business.
Hearn told his club's official website: "We are asking for a 25,000-seat stadium and we want to see if we can get around the athletics track. It has to stay, we know that. But can we build up, if not down, and see if it's possible to get it covered while we play?
"If it isn't possible, it isn't - and we wouldn't move in with a running track between the pitch and the crowd.

Rangers fall out with BBC

Rangers have withdrawn co-operation with the BBC for the second time this season ahead of a documentary exploring Craig Whyte's takeover of the club.

The Clydesdale Bank Premier League club described the programme, which will be shown on Thursday evening, as "little more than a prejudiced muckraking exercise".
However, the BBC strongly rejected claims of bias against the club and insisted the content of the programme was accurate and in the public interest.
Rangers first withdrew co-operation following a national news report on sectarianism ahead of the opening weekend of the SPL season, before a BBC apology ended the impasse.
A statement on the club's official website read on Tuesday: "Rangers Football Club is withdrawing all co-operation with the BBC as of today.
"The decision has been taken due to the repeated difficulties the club has encountered with the BBC this season.

Its the hokey kokey cup Sion in out in out

Celtic will retain their place in the Europa League group stages even if Sion are reintegrated into
 the competition, according to UEFA.

Sion were expelled from the tournament on September 2 for fielding ineligible players in their play-off victory over the Hoops and lost an appeal against their expulsion later that month.
The club have since earned the backing of the Swiss civil courts in their fight to be reinstated.
UEFA are keen for the Court of Arbitration for Sport to have the final say but on Monday submitted documents to a court in the Vaud region of Switzerland, which previously ruled in favour of Sion, examining a number of possible outcomes if Sion succeed.
