Over celebrating

[I should coco]

I notice that Sunderland took the piss out of the Geordies, after their Derby win:

Sunderland 1-0 Newcastle: How Black Cats avenged humiliating photograph

Nick Woltemade's own goal was enough to give Sunderland a win over Newcastle in the first Premier League Tyne-Wear derby since 2016.

I expect the Wilder Fun Police to slam this pathetic behaviour. It's only a local Derby, and tomorrow's training pitch rota, a new sub's bib order, and an interview with Asia Dailly, should all take priority over these childish antics.

Just sayin'....

Didn't see that but it sounds quite amusing. Good bit of mickey taking!

As for OTT goal celebrations - they're only a problem when the opposition have scored - but I do think there's an argument for some sort of time limit

Soon put a stop to it with rule 21.3.c. If the scoring team are not all in their own half ready for kick off within 45 seconds of them scoring, the referee shall allow the team with the kick off to play notwithstanding their opponents are not within their own half and the referee shall upon the next break in play book those players of the scoring team who were, at the kick off, not in their own half.

So you over celebrate and you’ve only got your keeper and a full back in your half, opponent kicks off and almost inevitably will score.

Easy peasy this law making.

I think you mean LAW 21.3c.

You missed the sub clause; "In the event that his law penalises, West Ham United, it shall not be applied, as it would be 'unfair on the fans''.

I suspect that by the time the law is written and adopted it will probably read “This law shall only apply to Sheffield United “.
