Fav football headlines

Typing up some invective about the joys of Scottish league football elsewhere I am reminded of one of my fav headlines from the back pages after Inverness Caledonian Thistle had beaten up the Scottish rags in some bonkers competition or another:

Supercallyarefantasticcelticareatrocious

Anyone got any other favourites?

COX OUT!
With reference to then Newcastle manager Arthur Cox.
Might not be true mind, but it should be.
Similar for Alan Dicks at Bristol I think.

Trying to remember and/or find (and failing) the one that went something like "Keegan fills gap at back with Seaman" or something

I met a rather dodgy Scottish gentleman who lost a finger in a drunken bet with Norwegian gangsters on the strength of that Celtic result.

He recited the headline in the tale, which was actually quite funny.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the classic Sun headline when Clough punched a spectator at Notts Forrest game, " The shit hits the fan"

Don't know about headlines but Motty has made me smile a couple of times. First with his famous "Kuntz" comment and from the same tournament re Portugals Secretario "I don't know what his shorthand and typing are like but he's a decent full back".

Didn't a commentator once say, 'Nayim lobs seaman from 50 yards'?
