Prediction:
Tomorrow, at 10am, GJN1 will post a thread about how he hates it when goalkeepers spit into their own palms.
Actually, it was going to be a thread about why goalkeepers insist on having a feel of the match ball in the tunnel before the game starts. IT'S A BALL! LIKE THE ONES YOU'VE JUST WARMED UP WITH! They're not going to suddenly make you play with a melon...

Can we just bring that forward into today's thread and save everyone the bother?

Tell that to anyone who's been in the same team as Leon Best.
What's next? Why do goalies bounce the ball before the kick it? Is it to check that it's still bouncy?
No, we can't. Sorry.
Fair enough. In that case might I suggest adding to your daily dose of very niche yet mundane goalkeeper observations:
- Why do goalkeepers use their hands? What's that about eh?
- Don't you just hate it when a goalie comes up for a corner then has to run all the way back? Madness.
- My wife left me for a goalkeeper.
- What's with the brightly coloured kits?
I was thinking 'why should goalies get paid as much as outfield players considering they do less running around'
Further to my bugbear about goalkeepers and the forward flop, I also don't like the way that keepers always usher their jubilant teammates away when they've saved a penalty.
I'd milk it for all it's worth.
You get points from me for using 'their' & 'they're' correctly at least. But for the love of God, please change your avator - it makes me feel sick every time I see you post which isn't good!!!
Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeease!
