Good goal, sad about the death of the player, was just reading his wiki page, sounds like he had a hard upbringing and had a personality to match.

We loved the guy and it's a shame how things went for him. On the plus side, the only goal he ever officially scored for us might be my favourite goal I've seen. He'll be remembered as fondly as he deserves:

At least he left his kids a legacy so they don't have to suffer the financial hardships he had as a kid, so his life had a purpose. Lovely pics. Be interesting to know if his kids follow in his footsteps.

Busy guy. Two marriages and a kid with a mistress before 30 so there’s a good chance one will.

Yeah I read about his marriages and mistress, so was a busy guy. Love to see one of kids in a Toon shirt now fulfilling a dream, maybe bring them their first trophy in 70 years :bandit:

Not been many red cards or horrendous challenges since the first game. Turkey v Georgia is where I want blood. Riots in the stand and Erdogan declaring war after a contentious late offside decision.
