MaveriK Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 I am a pint up and going for double or quits. I have a memory of him coming off the pitch not looking too happy but i could be thinking of when he was subbed for England by old turnip head.

monkey76364 Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 The only time Gary Lineker was ever booked in his football career was by a traffic warden! Not once did he see yellow or red. It's an amazing record for the BBC presenter and England goalscoring legend. Perhaps you can emulate him if you know the things that will make a referee reach for his book and his coloured cards.

shaf Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 thats cos he never made a tackle in his whole life..... he was a good player for club and country though, got to admit that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerotop Dave Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Nope, never, and that's why he's my sporting hero - he played fair. However, I did hear rumours about him being sent off while he played in Japan... but I've never managed to confirm it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkey76364 Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 He was a great player ... was good for Tottenham and one of Englands all time greats ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outatime Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 I thought he got a yellow in one his last games in Japan? It might have even been his last game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
