Shay Given MOTD

Holocaust historic meaning of a sacrifice in which the offering was completely on an .


I don’t like Celtic fans but I must have missed the part where Nancy burned someone alive to the footballing gods to get a result against Motherwell
He just gave them a good roasting before the match.
 

Live score app shows he was booked in 93rd minute. Soccerway also shows yellow card.

Fair enough, the stats I saw didn't have him down as booked. Just checked again and yes it does have him down as booked, but not sure if it was for the penna incident.

No probs it was for penalty incident
 
He didn't refer to 'The Holocaust' and his use of the word as a synonym for catastrophe or disaster was perfectly valid. The fact that, in print, the word is being capitalised every time doesn't help but I am sure it wasn't capitalised in his mind.

Load of absolute shite.

I do still have a fond, if fading, memory of him keeping a clean sheet at Barnsley - along with some heroics from Paul Stewart! - when we were being battered there in the mid-90s, so I may be more sympathetic than some.
