There are kids in Monaghan born around 86 with âDiego Maradonaâ as their middle name.
TNH
As he ran away to celebrate he even looked back twice, as if waiting for the refereeâs whistle. He knew what he had done. Everybody did â apart from the referee and two linesmen. I donât care what anybody says, it won the game for Argentina. He scored a brilliant second almost immediately, but we were still reeling from what had happened minutes earlier.
For the first time in the game, we let him get a run on us and he scored. It was a great goal but we were in no doubt â without the first goal he would not have scored the second.
What a sad old cunt.
England were fucking terrible that day until Barnes came on. Glenn Hoddle letting Maradona just run past him in the build-up to the first goal.
Shilts never really seems to have come to terms with it. Thatâs the single minded attitude though of a born winner that made Shilts the best goalkeeper in the world in the late 1970âs. This was a high stakes game between two of the superpowers of the sport to effectively decide the destination of the World Cup. Paddy wouldnât understand high stakes like that. Paddy had never even been to a World Cup by 1986 and only ever wanted to head along anyway to be feted as having the best fans in the world, even if it is as the 33rd team.
Youâre trying exceptionally hard this morning, bless you
No fear of that Cunt ever being loved in the manner Diego is
A little Englander ballbag who let a midget outjump him to score one of the greatest goals of all time.Bobby Robson wanted to give Dave Bessant and Chris Woods a half each in the 3rd place playoff against Italy in 90 but shilton was having none of it.
If Shilts was was guilty of anything it was been too casual. He was just going out to claim a routine ball after an attack that seemed to have fizzled out to nothing. Maradona as you said was a midget in soccer terms. The ball was too high for Maradona to get his head to. A veteran goalkeeper like Shilts whoâs played out his career in England where old school values like playing by the rules still prevailed wouldnât have been thinking thereâs a high likelihood this fellow is going to cheat and fist it in.
Would you not fuck off out from this thread, you fucking gobshite
Harry Kane cheats every time he steps on the field for spurs and Jeff stays very quiet about it.
hon Gazzza
He is on a blocking spree now. Pity for him he couldnât block Maradona in 86.
Its brilliant when utter cunts like Shilton are defined by a moment where they were truly done up like a kipper and that ultimately is their legacy.
Gazza looking quite well there in fairness
Miguel creating a whole new meaning of TNH
To be honest âMiguelâ and his buddies are trying to recreate something they didnât live through . A bit like folk discovering punk
