Nicola Bulley: Coroner records accidental death verdict

The manager of Burnley FC has led the Clarets back to the Premier League in his first season in charge.
Vincent Kompany, who has four Premier League titles with Manchester City under his belt as an ex-player, helped Burnley finish 10 points above runners-up Sheffield United and 21 above third-place Luton Town. Under Kompany, the club lost just three times and finished the season on 101 points.
The historic victory has helped heal the wounds of demotion 12 months ago after six years in the Premier League. There is perhaps no better measurement of the pride and togetherness that the 37-year-old Belgian has brought to Burnley than the thousands of people descending on the town centre to witness the club's promotion parade.
Kompany, named EFL Championship Manager of the Year 2023, continues to lead Burnley FC, having signed a new five-year deal.
