10 Things You Might Have Missed This Week – 29/03/19

A week is a long time in football. It's even longer in a International break. Here's a bunch of stuff that's kept us entertained over the past seven days. From Space Burgers, to crap panenkas, to handstand heroics. This game never stops producing...

Maradona Moment – A once in a lifetime goal from Dan English. Worth pointing out that the goalkeepers in blind football can see, and even he didn't even see it. Take a bow, son.

Uninvited Guest – Little old Preston scaring the living daylights out of Championship boardrooms as they prepare to replace a team in the play-offs paying five times their playing budget. 

Top Block – All fun and games until he blocks one with his hand in the box. Is it innovative or cowardly? Can it be both?

The Siblings of Sergio – When he's not scoring panenkas, lifting trophies, and being need deep in absolute bastardery, Sergio Ramos does actually have a less serious side. Well, considering he's worked on Big Bang Theory for so long, it should come as no surprise.

McWTF – A burger landed on Colchester United's training ground this week. Turns out it had been sent to space from Sheffield by a Youtuber who had attached it to a balloon and a GoPro and landed 180 miles away in Colchester. Solid reasoning for doing this article every week.

Power Play – Lost 5-0, couldn't have a shower, couldn't watch the scores come through in the bar, and couldn't even watch Dancing on Ice when you got home. With those lines being so low, this must be a weekly occurrence.

Av It – Dunston's full-back probably didn't plan on his clearance assisting the goal that won his side the title. Some effort that.

Players' Player – Even a king can still be told off by his mum...

One Man Club – The only way this could be better is if Keith who plays for Keith's first name is also Keith.

Battered 'em – "Siri, show me a visual summary of my career on FIFA."

Heads – Why is the funniest thing about this the light flickering back on?

Pan-end-it – We've said it before and we'll say it again; the Panenka is the mark of the egotist. St Mirren's Simeon Jackson decided that the first time to ever try one was when his side were bottom of the league with a few games left and the score was 0-0. They lost 1-0, obviously, because football gods do exist.

Sorry, Not Sorry – Pulling out the Mbappe celebration against PSG after a last minute winner. Drew Spence with the most joyous grin of pure shithousery, even turning around to face the PSG fans. Love it.

That's that. Funny old game init...
