Though if a player removed his shirt very quickly and held the shirt aloft while pointing to the sponser and giving a thumbs-up, I think he'd still be booked.

Does it also say don't turn your back on the camera while celbrating because the same damage is caused to the sponsers isn't it?

Ha I just find it strange that the reason you can't take your shirt off is because of a split-second loss of sponser. Yet it's perfectly alright to slide face down on the turf, hiding the sponser, or to lift your shirt up enough to hide it. Or the numerous other ways you can deny these sponsers their close-up shot.

It's just trying to maximise the likelihood of the sponsor being seen, nothing definite to it. I always wanted to see a player take his shirt off and reveal an identical shirt below, wearing two shirts throughout the match just in case he scored lol.

It's only a matter of time before the above situation becomes a loophole for that rule. I wonder are star players encouraged to run to the cameras during celebration for that very reason?

It's called the 'D' lmfao, and players must stand around it when a penalty is taken. Unbelievably poor knowledge on show.

Back to pointless things in football; Liverpool on their way back from Old Trafford.

Seriously, Frank Lampard is an absolute legend of the game. He needs to be recognised in some way eg. Frank Lampard OBE, Sir Frank Lampard or some kind of lifetime achievement award.

It pisses me off that DaG, Moe and whoever else read this thread didn't say a thing about the semi-circle comment. I'm depressed enough as it is without seeing gormless bystanders on here.
