The hardest thing is that he was always there for me and, in the end, it felt like I wasn't there for him: NASSER HUSSAIN pays an emotional tribute to his great mate Graham Thorpe
It feels like yesterday. When Rob Key called, telling me he had some sad news, I instinctively knew what it was and yet, like everyone who knew Graham Thorpe, his death left me in a state of shock. I was staying up in Richmond, North Yorkshire, with my family and my initial thoughts, obviously, were with his family: his wife Amanda and their kids, his dad Geoff.

Burglars smash their way into Harry Redknapp's £5m home
Harry Redknapp's mansion in Dorset has been raided by masked robbers armed with hammers. The thieves stole jewellery belonging to his wife, Sandra, and other items during the burglary last Friday, it is understood. The pair were out at the time of the raid. A source told The Sun: 'It was clearly organised. The raiders must have known the house was empty.' Their £5 million home near Sandbanks, a beach resort in Dorset, is up for sale and one theory is that the thieves attained details of its floorplan via the property website Rightmove. A source said: 'The criminals would only have to keep watch on the property and break in once the coast was clear, knowing the full layout of the house in advance.' They added that the thieves, who were masked, used hammers and a sledgehammer to break down the front door of the couple's home. They were caught on CCTV rifling the gated property. Redknapp had reportedly been attending a function that evening, while his wife was in London. A spokesman told The Sun that Redknapp did not 'want to make a fuss' and that it was a 'matter for the police'. Dorset Police confirmed it was hunting for the thieves. Redknapp and Harris, both 78, moved into the home in 2021, having lived in several other properties in the area. They are currently waiting for works on another waterside villa in the Sandbanks to be completed. Sandbanks is the UK's most expensive coastal area to buy a house, according to analysis by Rightmove, with an average asking price of £1.28 million. It is the only coastal area in the country where average house prices exceed £1 million. Despite having fallen 3 per cent year-on-year, asking prices remain more than three times more expensive than the national average of £378,240. The resort is also home to the cricketer Sir Geoffrey Boycott and the interior designer Celia Sawyer, whose home suffered an attempted burglary last May.

Fury as travellers 'break in' to cricket club before camping on the pitch and 'throwing rocks' at passers-by
Locals have been left 'heartbroken' after their cricket club's pitch was 'broken into' by travellers parking vans on the pitch. Plymstock Cricket Club says a 'group of travellers' gained access to their green on July 28 and have since set up an unauthorised encampment on the field. The club, which is based in Plymouth, claimed members of the group have been 'throwing rocks' at passers-by and warned residents to 'stay clear and stay safe'. It says that as a result of the incursion it has had to cancel all fixtures 'for the foreseeable future', with the tennis and football teams also affected. In a statement on social media, the club said: 'Unfortunately our pitch has been broken onto and we now have a group of travellers setting up camp. 'Do no approach the ground as they have been throwing rocks at people. Everyone stay clear and stay safe.' Aerial drone footage shows 20 caravans parked on the club's cricket pitch, with vans and cars also on the green. Lee Garlick, who took the photos, says he was approached by children in a matter of minutes after setting his drone into the sky. 'I parked up in the car park and launched my drone,' he said. 'Within a few minutes, some kids came over and asked what I was doing, so I told them.' He claims shortly after, teenagers, who were around 14 to 16 years of age approached asking similar questions as to why he was flying the drone, claiming it was against the law. 'I again, explained and informed them of the law and I was entitled to do what I was doing,' he said. 'They didn't like this and told me to f*** off and stay away before something happens.' He was also told to 'f*** off and to go play with [his] toy somewhere else' by some vehicles leaving the encampment. 'I don't intimidate easily, so I stayed, finished what I was doing and then left,' he added. The club said the recent development was 'absolutely heart-breaking' as they recently 'put a lot of effort into improving [their] pitch and facilities'. They told the BBC: 'This is going to be a massive step backwards. 'We have been in touch with the council and MP regarding this and hope that they can be moved on soon as this is a very active sports facility used by many in the community.' A Devon and Cornwall spokesperson said: 'We are aware of an unauthorised encampment at Dean Cross, Plymstock and are liaising with the council in relation to this. 'Officers have attended the site and engaged with the group.'
