That's hilarious. It's the Press Gazette at fault but the story has been up on their site for half an hour without anyone fixing it.

I love it when people scramble to deny claims that they had relations with someone of the same sex, like gayness is somehow a bad thing.

So, hang on: the Mail HASN'T apologised to Gordon Strachan? Guess this means he's out. Nice work, Daily Mail. What Gordon Strachan gets up to with men in the privacy of his own house is his own business, if you ask me.

The Mail is in its sweet spot today, addressing the issues that matter most to Britain.
Compare and contrast with 18 months ago. Pretty sure the front page headlines are identical as well.

She would have sued for sure, and collected record-breaking damages (which she would have donated to the children’s cancer ward at Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children).
On the way to present the donation, she would have asked the driver to stop so an assistant could jump out and buy her a Toblerone.

Actually it's not gone they've just changed the headline to the far more reasonable "Girl, 13, crushed to death by a falling branch as she sat on park bench on the day her teachers went out on strike".
tbf both the Telegraph and the Mirror have gone for similar lines.
