Yes you for getting both of them completely wrong :lol:

Don't worry mate, he realised he made an idiot of himself again, and tried to change his reply - nice catch.

@Royal 8er doesn't like it when you make him look even more stupid than he makes himself look - do you? You retreat back into 'ignore mode'.
 
"A Frenchwoman walks into a bar carrying a duck under her arm.
The bartender says, "Hey, You can't bring that pig in here."
The Frenchwoman says, "Excuse me...but that's a duck."
The bartender says back, "Excuse me, but I was talking to the duck."
 
What is the story behind it?

Marseille registered a comfortable 2-0 win over Toulouse in Ligue 1 on Sunday thanks to a goal apiece from Florian Thauvin and Lucas Ocampos.

However, the first goal of the evening was actually scored by a fan, and not just any fan.

L'OM invited supporter Kamel Zaroual to take a ceremonial kick-off at the Stade Velodrome before the match as a reward for his fundraising efforts for local disadvantaged children.

Zaroual recently cycled roughly 2,000 kilometres from his home in the nearby city of Arles north to the city of Amiens and back to raise money for charity.

Rather brilliantly, the 36-year-old couldn't resist the temptation of scoring a goal at his beloved team's stadium, so he took the kick-off and the proceeded to sprint up the pitch before burying a shot past 18-year-old Toulouse goalkeeper Alban Lafont.

It was one heck of a fine finish too, with Zaroual slotting a lovely low shot inside Lafont's left-hand post.

"I am not a professional cyclist, the only doping substances I take are beer and cigarettes," he told France 3 after completing his mammoth cycle journey.

What a hero.
