Cleaners in Ireland are turning against Henry vacuum cleaners because they cannot bear to see the name of the French striker whose handball knocked them out of the World Cup, it has been claimed.

Workers are refusing to use the familiar devices in anger at Thierry Henry's cheating.

Some have even defaced the smiling cartoon faces that are painted on the appliances, with others writing abuse next to the Henry logo.

The vandalism is said to have mystified bosses because Thierry Henry has no connection with the brand of vacuum cleaners, produced by the British firm Numatic.
