Sky Sports are going to bizarre lengths in their coverage of Mourinho’s departure

If a tree falls in the forestĀ and no one’s there to hear it, does it make a sound?

Sky Sports’ response to this seems to be ‘we need to constantly film the forest to remove any doubt’.

The broadcaster has been flying a helicopter over Chelsea’s training ground after Jose Mourinho’s departure. Presumably to prove that he’s not managed to sneak back unannounced.

We’re willing to forgive Sky Sports if they named the helicopter ‘Chopper Harris’. Otherwise they’re on their own.
