Timmy Cahill | ||||||
Our little Aussie friend Timmy was bought from Millwall this summer and he certainly hasn't disappointed. Since turning up, he's scored twice, been sent off once, had a goal celebration named after him, been the victim of "Horror tackle of the season" and caused me to write a song for him. (Click here to view said song.) His traditional celebration of lifting his shirt having scored became the subject of controversy corner when he was stupidly sent off after doing it in celebrating his first ever EVERTON goal, a great header against Man Shiteeeeeh. He lifted his shirt over his head, but did NOT take it off. Steve Bennett was under the impression that this was a bookable offence and following an earlkier booking, gave Timmy his marching oders, promting the football world to go crazy over the rule and even Sepp Blatter blasted Bennett- who did NOT rescind his silly decision. Subsequently, the now legal action of lifting one's shirt over one's head has been named "The Cahill." For such a wee person, he's INCREDIBLE in the air and I've actually got a bet on with my Mum that Tim will score more headed goals than Big Dunc this season. It's currently 2-2... Tim's SO nice, he even waited outside in the freezing cold the other week, because I was late and I shouted to him that I wanted his autograph so he stood and waited for me... aw! He calls me "Darling" and did 3 kisses on the autograph for me- which he didn't do on ANYONE else's, and thus I'm his little Darling. |
