The Ravanelli was fucking top. As was the Klinsmann - albeit it was weather/playground dependent. Big part of growing up that - I'd hate to think kids now are emulating that fucking Anelka bird shite.

BOLLOKS - THAT RULE CAME IN YEARS AGO AND NOTHING TO DO WITH SALLY GUNNELLESQUE SHIRT PROBLEMS.The first such example of this routine resulted in quite an amusing incident; Forlán whipped Diego Forlán shirt off in excitement after scoring an 85th minute winner against Southampton F.C. in November 2002Footballers who remove their jerseys during post-goal celebrations are to receive automatic yellow cards. The modification to Law 12, which was approved last February by the International Football Association Board (IFAB), will come into effect from 1 July, 2004.

the sponsors want their logo seen, and the moment after a player scores is seen as the money shot - what they are paying the cash for.
