"Olusanya cleverly getting his body in front of Phillips".
By running faster than Phillips can run.

Another that springs to mind was a league game that ended in a draw round about the time we won the League Cup. Two big referreeing calls went against both sides that day so, naturally, with the honest mistakes shared out equally you've got zero problem moving on from it.
Shortly afterwards, Pat Bonner, discussing Celtic's recent form, refers to "the draw in Paisley", then mutters "of course they had the two decisions go against them that day"
I always wondered, had he already completely erased the two that went in their favour from his memory, or did he offset them with two decisions that he saw go in Rangers' favour in a completely different game that didn't even involve Celtic or St Mirren, as per the logic that you sometimes hear being applied?
That was the day I learned that Pat's gentlemanly demeanor didn't necessarilly mean that he wasn't as much of a clown as anyone else on there.

Eddie Smith was also the referee that sent off Will Haining

“Referee Smith decided that the striker had been tugged from behind by the defender, who was shown a red card, although television pictures suggested that Vennegoor of Hesselink had been doing his own share of holding.
Howard saved Robson's spot kick with his legs but could not prevent the ball spinning a matter of inches over the line before the goalkeeper swiped it clear.
The 10-man Buddies almost equalised immediately, but an O'Donnell snap-shot flew wide of the far post.“
Basically Eddie Smith should never have been allowed to referee any games involving his beloved Celtic.
Gus MacPherson also said that Eddie Smith had been winking at him during the game.
Smith also knocked back the red card appeal, which at that time was overseen by the ref himself.
I was working that day and was listening to the game with a Rangers fan. As the game dragged on at 0-0 I remember saying "That'll be the penalty claims starting soon", and sure enough....

3-1 up in an essentially meaningless friendly and you're diving, untouched looking for another penalty. I'll just never be on the wavelength of that mentality. It's alien to me. lf there was something on the line it would still be weaselly but would at least be understandable.

Spaniard marring the occasion by giving his jersey to someone in the crowd who brought a sign asking for it.

Looks like Dorman was still on our books when he played against Croatia on 23rd May 2010, having last played for Saints on 8th May. I don't see any references to him being at Crystal Palace until July.
e.g. BBC name checked him as a Saints player.

Seems like Rich Eisen learned how to pronounce Tottenham correctly and now he's kicking the arse out of using it.

The commentator mentioned that Mcmenamin was the first ever St Mirren player to score for NI. A question to those in the know: who was the last St Mirren player to score for Scotland?
Any advance on Tommy Gemmell in this game?

I noticed Phil Foden managed to swap Keanu's jersey at the end.

Quote"I don't know which team the reporter is talking about. We watched different games. Yesterday, plain and simple, the Virgin Mary appeared for us and the referee was a little sister of charity".
QuoteNo se de qué equipo habla el redactor. Habremos visto partidos distintos. Ayer simple y llanamente se nos apareció la virgen y el árbitro fue una hermanita de la caridad.

The NFL's first crack at VAR lasted six years, at which point it had become sufficiently reviled that the teams voted it out of existence.
It disappeared for seven years then came back with an improved format that worked better.

Balague saying the keeper was helping the referee by not going for it.
By letting the ball scream into the top corner to highlight interference?

Had JJ Watt on the Tonight Show mercifully correcting Jimmy Fallon (and the rest of America's) pronunciation of Premeer League.
Just need iron out Notre Dame now.

Looks like the last three times that Celtic have gone a goal behind in the league at Parkhead have all been against us.
Makes a change from all the nils.
