Do You Believe In Ghosts?


When is a goal not a goal?

When it didn't go between the posts maybe?

Unless you are Nigel Bannister of course.

Reading's 'ghost' goal has been blocked on YouTube by the FA, although I did mange to find this. A copyright issue apparently.

A moral dilemma then for the Reading players and management team.

Shame that not one of them was moved to 'own up'. Maybe they were scared no-one would believe they had seen a ghost.......

It's disappointing. I remember a very sporting gesture from Leicester this time last year when they replayed the match against F****t during which Clive Clarke had had his heart attack. That won the Foxes wide acclaim and at the end of the day did not disadvantage them at all.

Of course, these days the high quality of the Foxes means we don't need to cheat. 3 -1 without the need for any spooks, phantoms or other apparitions on Saturday.

Winning is not paranormal for us. Just everyday.
