Wigan striker Connor Sammon, who scored his side's winner to settle a thrilling match against West Ham: "At half time at 2-0 down, people are writing us off but we showed a lot of character. We got the early goal and that gave us a lot of belief. I didn't think the manager would put me straight on after half time. But I'm delighted to get my opportunity and to get the goal was brilliant for me. We're happy with today's win but we have to prepare and be ready for Stoke."

I think on the Killie forum when he was there they said it was him dedicating his goal to his girlfriend.Quote:

He's sold his soul!
Re Conor's celebration, the wrestler Diamond Dallas Page used to do it. It's called ''The Diamond Cutter''
http://nahright.com/news/wp-content/images/ddp.jpg
He created the symbol in 1996 and later copyrighted it. In December 2005, Page filed a lawsuit against rapper Jay-Z, who, he claimed, had "illegally adopted his trademark hand gesture". Page accused Jay-Z of trademark and copyright infringement, and sought a prohibitive injunction and monetary damages. Jay-Z paid him an undisclosed amount of money, DDP dropped the lawsuit leaving both men with the right to flash the diamond. On August 31, 2010, Page filed a lawsuit against American electronica musical duo 3OH!3 for copyright infringement of his trademarked "Diamond Cutter" hand gesture. http://www.bloginity.com/blog/2010/0...e-hand-symbol/.....Conor could be next?? :rolleyes:
When you do that here its called "The Roc" for Jay-Z's Roc-a-fella Records. I also recall Diamond Dallas Page doing it in my wrestling watching days.Quote:

Well done to the Sammon of College....
Must deserve a call up to the Irish panel after a few very encouraging performances in the Premiership.
The only ex-Derry City player with a Premier League goal afaik.
He was an unused sub for the previous four or five games; I think that's just his sixth PL appearance. The summer squad is very much a friendly thing I know, but I do think it's a bit early to be considering a call-up yet.Quote:

Owen Morrison or David Kelly maybe ?Quote:

Wigan barely touched the ball in the first half but he was busy and made some good runs. Cleverley came on and made a difference with his ability to pick up the ball in deeper positions. Sammon had a snot moments before being subbed he should have done better with having made the chance himself.
did he pick it, lick it, roll it, flick it?Quote:

Sammon was very disappointing from what I saw. Struggled to get into the game, but Wigan were dour all over the pitch.
Never struck me as the whiny type. Unless you're describing what I hope you're not describing!Quote:

"Jewfish much yourself Paul?"
"You mackerel statement holding that pint Jack."
"Weever lot to talk about Paul."
No one has mentioned Tamer Tuna? And what of Stephen "Pikey" Manchester? Neither is half the player that Cod Wallace was (or his brother "Sting" Ray Wallace...can't think of one for Danny.). Bass Savage too.
EDIT: Someone already got Stingray Houghton...I'll stick by it though.
David Goldfish owns West Ham.
