—Ron Atkinson

—Eric Morecambe
~~Imagine that for a game. "Ronaldo is stepping up to take the free-kick, AND THE BALL SWEEPS HIS LEGS OUT! The ref is coming over. Certainly there'll be a card. Yes, yes, red it is. The ball has been sent off!"
If it had gone in, it would have been a goal.
—Barry Davies

—Ron Atkinson yet again
~~What other way could it go?

—Dave Bassett
~~My ref didn't believe it.

~~Oh, I see now. Thank you!

—Mark Draper
~~They are at the top of Series Z. Who wouldn't!?
