although football was only invented in the early 90s when a small city gent flicked the decapitated head of a petty thief into a guillotine basket with his foot, it has developed into a global phenomenon in only a few short decades.

as the saying goes, it’s a funny old game. this thread can be used to highlight some strange but true facts about the beautiful game. these same facts can be recycled with confidence down the pub to impress your mates or charm the absolute pants off a woman.

fact

sir alex is fiercely shy and conducts all media interviews from under his wife’s skirt. cathy, the consummate pro, stands deathly still to not give the game away, though sometimes the smell can get a little overwhelming.



fact

harry mcguire is only actually 72% forehead, contradicting many scientific research papers who put the figure somewhere closer to 90%
