Have to give it to Orient’s Theo Archibald.

Won a free kick. Ref gets out his spray and marks out the line. When the ref turned away, Archibald scooped up the foam, walked five yards forward and wiped his hand on the grass for a new line.

If it wasn’t right infront of the Charlton fans, he’d have got away with it. Very surprised he wasn’t booked. Ten out of ten for trying it on though.

It was a good one.

Weirdly, if he had of gotten away with it, I’m not sure it would have helped him much. From that angle, taking the free kick closer to the box probably wouldn’t be helpful.

Totally agree, but how did the ref spot the "shenanigans" when he was  walking the 10yards? His back was turned! He did well to pick up on it.

I mean if you've paced out 10 yards, turn around and the ball is 5 yards away maximum, I think you'd work it out?

It was properly funny. Turning around and smiling with that shit eating grin was very good. We'd love it if one of ours did it tbf

I clocked him second half and said look at that fruitcake,  hes a proper unit , looks like a rugby player and a bit billy bunter , he was definitely a sandwich short of a picnic
I cracked up and he didn't give a fuck 
@Braziliance did you get any footage of this ?

Footage of what mate, him bringing the ball more forwards? 

If so no, most of the game I was daydreaming thinking about board and quiz games night 😎

I don't think he is the brightest, he was wearing a weird head band in the Malaga friendly and getting some grief for it so felt it a good idea to lift it up and shout at us how he had just come back from a  having a hair transplant, that stopped the banter, (not).

when Orient got a free kick the ref sprayed the foam,  then walked and sprayed the foam where the wall would be and at that point Archibald picked up the foam and made a line nearer with it

No I didn't capture it fella, truthfully I don't even remember it happening, I kept getting distracted by that dancing dragon mascot and the people in their flats 😂

I wish I'd been there to see it. The bloke was just having a laugh which I'm all for in these days of po-faced, arms crossed goal celebrations and walking onto the pitch with upturned palms and staring at the heavens like you're  sent by God.

West Brom have a long throw specialist. So to help negate that threat in tonights playoff semi-final second leg Southampton have put in a second set of advertising hordings around their pitch, presumably to stunt his ability to get a good run up!

good s/housery ..  and how were the Saints to know that WBA would rarely get deep enough into their half to warrant a long throw attempt
