Injuries from celebrations?

anyone take a knock Friday? the guy to my left (mentioning no names) was hammered. could hardly stand. when the first goal went in we all went nuts and predictably i was sent flying into the row in front, smashing my shins against the seat in front and literally having to hold on for dear life. it was a beautiful moment. although now i feel the pain of the incident and have a tennis ball sized bruise to show for it. Well worth it though.
anyone had similar over the years?

    at fulham away a few years ago there was a "bundle" that resulted in quite a few injuries, mainly caused by a hot cup of tea and a mate deciding it was a great idea to jump off the seat behind our group onto us all after a goal

    also nabbed a black eye at white hart lane with a flailing arm from my mate (the guy next to me ducked and i had no idea it was on the way), had to walk around sixth form with that for a week!

    also seem to remember at sheffield in the cup taking the skin off my shins (through my jeans) by leaning against the hard rim of the seat in front the whole time

    funny how pain is immaterial at football!

    Talking about injuries during goal celebrations anyone remember Stoke away 98? Kavanagh smashed a long shot past the debutant Sasa and ran over to celebrate with Pottermus, their mascot, in his excitement he managed to clothes line the ManHippo and then dive on him. Their physio had to come on and treat the mascot.

    First look at their new Stadium and also the start of our great run to promotion.

    i remember a fan running on the pitch away at huddersfield (i think) when Robson scored (i think). he slid on the grass about 3 feet before finally losing his balance and sliding on his @rse right into Robson. its on one of the highlights videos. might be 96/97????

    No Bumps or Bruises but the guy standing next to me picked me up & spun me around in a firemans lift after the 2nd Goal, thing is he's half my size, I am amazed I didn't end up on top of the people in front of me!

    i've had numerous people elbow me in the head/jaw when celebrating. and various scrapes on shins from the seats in front!

    not really an injury either but at half time on Friday i was trying to drink a pint and medders and carling between them managed to make me spill half of it all over my hands, arms, coat, feet.

    nice one moooorons. :-)

    My favourite was when my mate celebrated the goal that never was by Sol Campbell against Portugal in Euro 2004.

    We both went up but my mate went on my shoulders, over the top and landed about 3 rows in front in the seats of a couple of (very fit) Portugese ladies.

    I can remember him looking up at me in delight as if we had just shared the greatest moment ever, only for me to have to give him the thumbs down as the ref had dissalowed it.

    Sol Campbell disallowed goal, I think theres a theme.

    I was on holiday in Feuntaventura in 98, there was about 30 of us all families though, and one of the blokes with us said if England score he would pour his pint over his head. Campbell scored he did the deed the goal was disallowed. It was f*cking hilarious.

    This is true medders, I was trying to keep quiet about it incase he posts on here!

    My shin is bloody killing me today and has a huge scar on it, oh well.

    Heh, about suzi and the beer, my mum told me about this at halftime and said you looked pretty pissed off and was wondering if Medders even knew you, my only reply could be that I didn't remember ANYTHING from half time at all, which is pretty worrying.
  • suzisausagesuzisausage
    some of it went on you so i'm surprised you don't remember as well. It was carling's beer so i'm not too fussed about that, and i wiped most of it over medders face and jumper. i only wanted a bloody sip.

    I've just remembered another injury of sorts, being squeezed so hard i thought i was going to pop by shag outside the oak as he walked past after the game!
  • Stu_of_KunmingStu_of_Kunming
    Yeah, I don't remember any of halftime at all, I don't even remember going down. Amazingly it's the only bit of the day/night that I don't have any recollection off.

    I do remember kicking carlsberg in the nuts at the station, so that can count as revenge. ;-)
  • MeddersMedders
    Glad I'm not the only one Stu! Really dont remember any of the beer spillage! If I'd known about the Oak at that point, there was no way I'd have been wasting beer!
