Just for a bit of added fun. Predict the number of times Barry Bannan will be mentioned tonight by the Sky commentators during the match. They love a bit of Barry Bannan action. I'll start us off with 25. I shall count them until I'm too pissed to care, and my adjudication is final.
I will go for 8 pint cans of Stella and a rum and coke please, oh and 17 Bannan's! haha it wants to autocorrect to banana
If its just "Bannon", I will go for 6. If its the full "Barry Bannon", I will go for 38. Who's keeping count?
Bonus prize for use of the word ‘wand’ or the phase ‘footballing brain’ in any of them. He’s gash wouldn’t get a shift making brews here.
5 before kick off, once every five minutes he is on the pitch after kick off, hope he scores an own goal early on
The sky commentary team should take things just one step further than they did in the play off games and when sheff wed have the ball all of their players should be referred to as either Bannon or Not-Bannon.
Not sure if everyone is aware of this little "fun fact". Barry Bannon is so good he could have easily moved on to a team in the Championship when they were relegated to league 1 but he took the relegation personally and was determined to stay and see them promoted! I think it was sky who mentioned it!
It rarely just a plain old Bannan as you say. Almost always his full name, like he is special and different to everyone else on the pitch. I say 52.
Easily over 50 and it will be the full 'Barry Bannan'. I'll go 63. Triple figures if the little twat scores.
There’s a good drinking game in this, although I reckon we’d all be too pissed to see the second half
I can see the news next week.....'Huge spike in alcohol poison related deaths around the Sunderland area!'
