Hey ewe lot - get the flock out of there

Baaamy football fans delivered a flock of sheep to stand for office in a boardroom shuffle after a row about results.

Desperate supporters at Hajduk Split, Croatia, wanted to oust the management's candidates over their lack of football experience.

"One of us is a club shareholder and these sheep are his proposed independent candidates for posts on the board," said fan Radoslav Bozic, 25.

"All the sheep have the same experience, talent and usefulness as the board members suggested by the management.

"The only difference is that the sheep are much better on grass," they added.
