Thaksin staying

Manchester City owner Thaksin Shinawatra is committed to the club despite speculation over his financial muscle raised by corruption charges in Thailand, club chairman Garry Cooke said on Monday.
The former Thai Prime Minister is taking refuge in England after refusing to return to answer the charges against him and Cooke insisted Thaksin was not looking for a buyer for City.
He told BBC Radio Manchester: "When these things get thrown at you, you actually try that much harder.
"He (Thaksin) is even more adamant now, because this is his love, and he wants to show people he is really committed.
"I asked the question as well as everyone else - `is the club for sale?' and he is quite adamant this club is not for sale and he is here for the long haul."
