We probably got the Cold Stream guards on standby when we do.

A hand shake, a pat on the back, a smile, that’s what basketballers do

But football is a low scoring sport, the match might end goalless or just a single goal scored

If they don’t celebrate a goal like no tomorrow, they won’t know when their next goal is coming

Look at us, we certainly need a few goals

One at the loft end let them loose, don’t begrudge them, they are a rarity

QPR hardly waste time on goal celebrations - they don’t happen often

Yes, the QPR approach (not scoring a goal very often) is... energy saving.

I do worry about the knee slide. Significant chance of doing an ACL if it goes wrong....

Why stop now, just when I'm hating it

This is not a top priority. Better would be pro's who don't wear shin pads in training.

Regardless of avoiding injuries, when you train, it's for the actual match, that is what you are training for. If in the actual match you have to wear em then you should wear them in training as that is what you are training for.

So, training without them is not training for the real match. That is a waste of time and effort.

Some pro's these days don't wear the right size of shin pads in matches anyway. Look at Jack Grealish and Oli McBurnie who seem to wear kids shin pads with their socks rolled down. They are asking for trouble.

These top level players in the "EPL" (f**k off) with their pre-rehearsed celebration routines can spit on my dad's cock.

There are four acceptable celebrations.

1. Arms up, run to the fans or the team.
2. Kiss badge. To wind up opposing fans preferably.
3. Bit of a team hug and bundle if it's a decisive goal in an important match.
4. Back flip. If you're a really talented foreign striker and you've scored one of your 25 goals this season.

Always a fan of the clenched fist and slightly menacing look that Duncan Ferguson used to celebrate his goals with.

Tardelli 82 had a more crazed expression, befitting a decisive goal in a WC Final, which Zamora in 2014 at Wembley toned down, comparatively speaking, while mayhem descended on the Rfosi.

All this being said: John Spencer's audacious nonchelance at Port Vale still takes some beating.

Should definitely be an open top bus parade after we next score a goal at the loft end, and I mean an immediate one, before the game restarts. The whole team pile onto an old route master and do one lap of the pitch, the scorer gets to drive..

Failing that a mass sammy Nelson to all corners of the ground….

From a purely sports POV, I'd have to disagree.

The adrenaline, serotonin and blood sugar dump you'd get from celebrating would give you a temporary energy boost of at least 5-10 minutes, and as a knock on effect would lift the rest of the teams mood and output.

Also the crowd mood lifted, noise and support louder, once again boosting the team.

Maybe not in Mansfield though.

Agreed, they are taking the piddle, and it will end in baby tears, no doubt.

Really, shin pads should have a regulated size depending on the person's shin bone size. As everyone has different sizes. For example Chairs tiny shins compared to Crouch's arm-length ones.

And the rule would be that it actually covers it and it will stay covered.

Almost all players wear v small shin pads these days - if you get a leg breaker, shin pads won’t help in the slightest, i doubt they do much even if they are bigger. Grealish is pretty injury free.

As for clough. Shut up old man. Can’t stand people like him and keane (although i like keane as a pundit) who can’t allow fun or emotion in a game. Jesus christ if you don’t play football because you love it and have fun doing it, why the fk are you doing it?! Its meaningless, in the grand scheme of things, so if you score, celebrate ffs.

Bare bones.

Grealish avoids the problem of getting fouled/injured by diving as soon as anyone comes with 2 feet of him
