Football idiot
I was playing in the Medway Sunday league for The Old George (sadly no longer with us) back in the early 90s. We were hopeless, really bad, a team made up of stoners, piss-heads and squadies from the local barracks that hadn't made it home that weekend.
We played in the bottom league and we usually got the shit kicked out of us every Sunday but for some reason, this season we were enjoying a wee bit of a successful cup run.
I played right wing, but this Sunday in question the manager had dropped me back to right back as the normal incumbent was sick (shagging his sister sick!). Anyway we were holding our own against a team 3 divisions higher than us in the quarter finals. They got a corner and tried to play it short, I ran out to block, put in a good tackle and started to make my way up the right wing with the ball at feet. There big centre midfielder came out to tackle me, spotting a team mate making his way up field I decided to play a long pass to him.
What happened next is priceless.
Instead of pinging off my right foot and landing perfectly in my team mates stride, the ball shot off from the corner of my boot and found its way unaided into my own net.
Gutted was not the word, plus my team mates werent too impressed either.
Lost the game 7-0, and I still get blamed from my former team mates for starting the rot.
Wankers.
