Not sure if it's been mentioned, but Fowler's "smackhead" celebration springs to mind. Running to the touch line smacking his head and then proceed to snort the white lines at the touch. In response of the taunts of smackhead from the Everton fans. What better way to reply? Scoring against them and a boss goal celebration to boot.

QUOTE(DaBestOne @ Sep 27 2007, 10:07 AM) i think he's penalised for tat celebration....isn't he? Yeah got banned for 6 matches, but that is together with his wiggling of the arse at Graeme Le Saux, all within about 2 weeks of each other. Got hauled up the displinary board and given a 6 match ban.

Another one that stick to mind was Gabriel Batistuta, while playing for Roma, scoring the only goal against his old club, Fiorentina, refusing to celebrate and pushing the team mates away, running back to the centre circle with tears streaming down his cheeks. Absolute show of loyalty and love for the club. Even stuck by the club when they were in Serie B, when he was one of the best strikers of that era. Total respect for that guy. Only moving to Roma to win a league title, as there's no chance of him winning it at Fiorentina, cemented his place in the history of Fiorentina, they even build a statute of him outside of the stadium.

QUOTE(Duke Red @ Sep 28 2007, 12:41 PM) I'm sure this was mentioned before but what about Titi Camara dedicating his goal to his father? He decided to play on instead of going back to Guinea for the funeral and when he scored he looked to the heavens, and he was in tears. He later said that his father would have wanted him to play on. I don't know how many players would have opted to play instead of attending the funeral. Remember that, was that against the Gunners or The Hammers? It was the winning goal too. He became a cult hero because of that too.
