The honeymoon lasted longer than the 55 hours Britney Spears stayed married to her one-time school friend Jason Alexander. But not by much. And the boos which chased Thomas Tuchel out of the City Ground after England’s lame defeat by Senegal were far louder than the boo-hoos which followed Britney to the divorce court from her boozy wedding in the fabled Little White Chapel on the Las Vegas Strip.

On occasion down the years Luis Enrique or his representatives would travel to London for discussions with leading Premier League clubs and at least once for exploratory talks about taking over our benighted national team. The response of the bigwigs became depressingly predictable: ‘He expects to be in charge of everything. Who the hell does this man think he is?

There has been a lot of entertaining rubbish played by Tottenham in their shiny new stadium this season and boxing caught that mood perfectly on Saturday night. Just when you thought the Rocky franchise was dead and buried along came yet another remake. This one starring two real fighters but bearing no more relation to world class sport than all those Spurs performances to the real business of the Premier League.

Chris Eubank Jr's weigh-in farce shows Conor Benn showdown is more of a marketing masterpiece than a bona fide brawl, writes JEFF POWELL

Roll up, roll up for the greatest show on earth. The old fairground barkers had nothing on the modern merchandisers drumming up a frenzy for Saturday's showdown at Tottenham Hotspur. Forget Waterloo, never mind Agincourt, ignore Bannockburn. Eubank Jr versus Benn The Younger, so we are told, is the real British Battle for the Ages. That is but one of several slogans emblazoned on an event which might have been generated by Artificial Intelligence.
JEFF POWELL: How a personality clash sparked the bitter Eubank and Benn family feud spanning more than 30 years

In The Names Of Their Fathers — so the promo goes — Chris Eubank Junior and Conor Benn box on a football pitch on Saturday night. Just as Chris Senior and Nigel Benn did at Old Trafford more than 30 years ago. The sons will bag a netful of booty at The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. At £10million for Eubank and £8m for Benn, approximately 25 times more than their dads earned from each of their two fights.

Millions of Americans will fire up their George Foreman Grills this Sunday and sizzle the meatiest hunks of beef they can find in honour of one of the mightiest punchers in boxing history. Hundreds of millions around the world will be clinking zillions of beer cans as they remember the most famous fight of all time. The Rumble In The Jungle. The pews at the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ in north Houston will be crammed with mourners lamenting the passing of their inspirational pastor.
