There are plenty of reasons why you might not sleep especially well before a final, but we dealt with a bit of a novel one during the Euros in the summer.
We’d been based at The Lensbury Resort for the tournament, but we moved to Myddelton Lodge, at Tottenham’s training ground, just before the final. In general, the change of venue was great, it freshened people up a bit. But it’s really fancy and the curtains in the rooms were all remote-controlled. For some reason, people’s remotes were just opening the curtains randomly — at two-o’clock, three-o’clock, four-o’clock in the morning!
