I LEAVE Ewood Park every other Saturday a sad man, having watched my favourite team play rather badly.

Then, as usual, on arrival at Darwen Street traffic lights, I see WPC Whatever Her Name Is in all her regalia. She always manages to summon a lovely smile even in the most appalling weather conditions. This lifts my spirits.

I hope she keeps up the good work. And, come on, you blues - let's have some smiley footy, with more goals please.
