Arse - Leeds on ESPN

[stek]

Bit of a stupid mistake to make, have the halftime pundit team out on the pitch near the Leeds fans.

With Robbie Savage!!

They've just apologised for the offensive chanting of the Leeds fans! What they expect doing that with one of the most hated ex players in English football in attendance!

I hate Savage, he once got Dean Holdsworth and Paul Warhurst sent off for Bolton in the first 12 minutes when he was at Leicester.

He was taken off after about 20 mins for his own safety!

Great game that tho, Wanderers two down with nine men, 2-2 last minute equaliser!

[shaunbhoy]

10 minutes back and he is already on the scoresheet!! Va Va Voom!!

Not long I reckon, here's the grauniad...

On ESPN: TV's Rebecca Lowe is standing behind the pitchside desk asking Robbie Savage and Martin Keown the hard questions. While some nearby Leeds fans give a rousing rendition of song detailing what they see as Robbie's penchant for - to borrow a phrase from Seinfeld - treating his body as an amusement park, some Leeds players warming up on the pitch in the background are trying to hit the trio with footballs. It's a farce.

And that's a direct hit! No sooner had I typed that passage than one of the Leeds players - I don't know who - earned himself a massive roar of approval from his own fans by scoring a direct hit on the side of Martin Keown's head from about 30 yards. That's a magnifient shot, which briefly incenses the former Arsenal centre-half. Clearly raging, he wheels around as if to say "Who the eff hit that?", only to quickly remember he's on live television, turn his frown upside-down and give them an unconvincingly matey thumbs up instead. It's an FA Cup match from the Emirates - surely they could find Rebecca and chums a studio or broom cupboard from which to broadcast?

You can see Martin Keown getting whacked with the football here. Let's hope the match is as entertaining.
