"Why haven't they got cameras? The officials can speak to each other easily enough now. Why aren't we using laptops that are linked up and can give a decision in five seconds? A chimpanzee could do it - with not much training.

"I would be very surprised if this game finished 0-0."
John Salako commentating on the MK Dons-Walsall game. It was 1-0 at the time!

"I believe in a man of steel,
His name is Lucas Neill,

He'll put you in hospital,
I believe in a man of steeeeeeeeeeel,
Super Lucas Neill!"
Heard at the recent game between Australia and South Korea to the tune of I Believe In A Thing Called Love by The Darkness. Brilliant it was, especially seeing as he wasn't playing (we could definitely have done with him)!

"Stand up if you paid to watch!"
A chant at the Plymouth-Forest game, where Plymouth had dished out loads of free tickets


Thats All Folks
