Adebayor's length of pitch time

Postby Dr Golfball » Thu Sep 17, 2009 6:55 pm

Alrite Lads n Ladettes. I have a bet on with my mate that I saw a clip on Sky Sports saying that Ade ran the pitch in just over 13 seconds, however he thinks its 16 seconds. I'm currently trying to find a clip, but to no avail. Any help welcomed.

You could each argue that you've won the bet!

In the video below you'll see he starts his run at 5 seconds (0 seconds)
...is on his knees at 18 (13 seconds - your bet)
...and comes to a full halt at 21 (16 seconds - your mates bet)

On Monday evening SSN showed the 'sprint' with a stopwatch in the corner, it stopped at 16.26 seconds.

I'm sorry...but that has to be one of the best celebrations in City history...pure class and if he gets pulled for that it's a fucking travesty!

Best not let my mate see this page. Cheers boys for the help. I kinda glad that i didn't find any clear cut evidence. And i agree with the guys above, if fans give you stick as a player, is the player not intitled for a bit of tounge and cheek?

Agreed! I'm desperate for a nice high-resolution picture of him in front of the Arse fans to set as my desktop but can't find one anywhere...
