Shirt Off Goal Celebration


Recommended Posts

While ever this is a bookable offence, I would fine any player who did it.  Maguire was booked so early in the game for it that it could have seen him sent off for a silly second booking.  Players know the rules.  Sentimental messages on T shirts should be banned by SG as it's getting a bit OTT now.

That time of month?

I do think it's a petty harsh rule etc but if it gets an automatic yellow then it could be costly, if only by virtue of it contributing to a ban later re the number of yellows picked up.  I just don't think it's something a professional player should be doing knowing a yellow card is automatically dished out.

I agree.

What is even more ridiculous is the fact that they are all aware of the penalty but still do it.

The club should fine them.

Nice of you to dedicate your goal to your nan who sadly passed but here's your fine.

Get real.

Rather than penalising the players for showing a bit of emotion every now and then why don't the clubs do something about it, let's face it they carry so much clout nowadays they could probably do something. I agree that it's a ridiculous rule though, showing sentimental messages reminds us all that there is life outside football, otherwise the FA might as well fine us for displaying a tribute to johnny eales on the scoreboard. Would be nice to see something pro-active from the clubs, it's hardly an integral rule to the game is it?
