Barnes loses £100
Derby midfielder Giles Barnes was challenged to a race by boss Paul Jewell :
"I raced him for £100 and he lost," Jewell explained.
"I said to him: 'Listen Giles, this is where you have to learn the game, so I will race you for £100 over 100 yards and I'll give you a 20-yard start.
' We shook hands and we raced, but I never said I would beat him. I said I would race him for £100, so he has to pay up. I'm still waiting for my money, and he won't be getting a move unless he pays me."
