100% this. I used to get excited watching him do it. He succeeded every time.Yakubu's ability to shield the ball in the corner and run he clock down from 85 mins + was unparalleled

He also sprang immediately to mind.Diego Fabbrini constantly won free kicks for us, I think he was probably only genuinely fouled once in his time here.
Also once spat blood into rat boy Kevin Phillips face.Festa was always nipping, tugging and raking Achilles on the sly
It was his knack of kicking the ball off the defender for another corner that was they key to it. Rinse and repeat.100% this. I used to get excited watching him do it. He succeeded every time.
Yes, he was really obvious with it and the defenders always used to seem wound up with him. The longer it went on the better it got. In fact sometimes I’d feel a bit sad when the final whistle went and the 3 points were in the bag.It was his knack of kicking the ball off the defender for another corner that was they key to it. Rinse and repeat.
Can't remember which Bolton players foot he stamped on at a corner in the League Cup Final, but the denial of it to the ref was first class.I recall some shithousery from Danny Mills during his brief stay here. He could be a bit arsey.
fair point. Grant Leadbitter had his momentsYou need to get away with it for it to be shithousery, they generally didn’t and would get carded. They were just dirty feckers
not sure about that. It was a red all day long.He was dancing at full time and he turned a yellow into a red.
yes, he was my first thought when I saw this thread. I remember him winning about 5 corners on the trot with this little trick once, just shield the ball then when two people are pressing he turned did a couple of dummied kicks, before finally pummeling it off the defender for another corner. Superb sh!thousery and wasted about 4 minsYakubu's ability to shield the ball in the corner and run he clock down from 85 mins + was unparalleled
yep that was incredible.Dimi sat down and got treatment about 5 times in the last 10 minutesThe whole team away to Norwich under Karanka
Dale Stephen’s tackle was only a yellow? Get off it
God I hate seeing him do thatNot sure if shithousery is the correct word for him maybe more ********* but McNair is brilliant at winning that free kick when facing his own goal with that little cheeky dive. Doubt we will see much more of it mind, can see him leaving
What leaving? I’m quite happy with that idea.God I hate seeing him do that
The Norwich fan I occasionally meet at work still moans about the Boro antics during that match. It left a lasting impressionyep that was incredible.Dimi sat down and got treatment about 5 times in the last 10 minutes
