Commercial: The Haiku World Cup

Yes, we are just one day away from the summer's major sporting event.

The Haiku World Cup.

I jest not.

You can now celebrate, commiserate and generally have a poetic kickabout with any aspect of football, in that well-trodden 5-7-5 formation.

Gather ye studs and swap them for quills. You can see some of the entries received so far, and then submit your own via enter.haiku@gmail.com There's also the usual facebook and twitter malarkey going on too.

If all goes well, there'll also be an e-book of the best that come in over the next four weeks.
