There have been a few rants in recent weeks, from Darren Lehmann's verbal assault on Stuart Broad to Ian Holloway being… well, Ian Holloway. So we thought we would delve into the wonderful world of YouTube for more sports personalities letting their frustration get the better of them…

Groundhog Day

Imagine being Bill Murray. You're one of the most respected comedy actors in the world and worth millions of dollars. You get to waltz around the world playing the world's finest golf courses at your leisure. But hang on, some journalists want to ask me a couple of questions. Well, you can't be having this…

Formula One v the Staines Massive

Sacha Baron Cohen-creation Ali G was famous for asking "Is it 'cos I is black" whenever he didn't get his way. Turns out it's far funnier when used in real life. Step forward, Lewis Hamilton…

Earl Weaver was head coach of the Baltimore Orioles for 17 seasons - and was booted out of an impressive 91 times. It is understood he suffered from the well-known condition "short man syndrome"…

More Fergie mind games

While we are on the subject of Ferguson rubbing his rivals up the wrong way, let us reminisce on Kevin Keegan's finest hour as Newcastle United manager...

Viktor Troicki's camera hijack

When Serbian tennis star Troicki had a shot called long at the Rome Masters earlier in the year, he was not a happy man. And the lengths at which he went to prove he was right were quite remarkable…

Should have gone to Specsavers

What happened on Soccer Saturday when anchor Jeff Stelling disagreed with pundit Charlie Nicholas's call on an offside decision? Probably the worst comeback of all time, that's what.
