@@bobdole4916 This is a tired argument. Yes, it was a word invented and used in Britain in the 1860's or something, but no-one here has called it soccer in 100 years. It's football.
@@ReiverGames It's not an argument - it's a fact. Yes, it's called football now, but the word soccer was invented by the English, so acting as though it's American's fault for it is a lie.

Vinny Jones was once told he wasn't playing, went to the pub, got drunk, then got rang up by his manager telling him to play because someone got injured. He came and started the game drunk and played one of the best games of his life.
@@Yashirmare Nope. That scene is with the 3 black guys with the replica gun and Tony schools him on how he can tell it's a replica. This is the one where he runs into Boris in the house and Tony shoots him. A lot. If those are close enough to each other, then yeah. It's been years since I've watched the movie, but I just love with Tony and Boris meet.
Vinnie Jones is the man. He transitioned into acting from playing football, as opposed to modern footballers who act instead of play. My baby takes the morning train...
@@nunya2587 they aren't it's simply that the foreign players push out any British players from getting the spot , if we banned all foreign players in British football we would have winning teams again
Every major team sport uses video refs and precise time keeping and it works just fine. It's just Association Football that weirdly insists on acting like it's 1889 and they are a bunch of factory workers who can only afford one whistle and one watch among the 25 of them.
The best role was one where he was completely silent until the very last scene of the movie and then just drops the most philosophical bit of dialog in the movie.
Can’t believe Adam as a blades fan hasn’t mentioned the time Keith Gillespie got sent off before play restarted (after he’d just come on as a substitute) for elbowing a guy in the face (can’t remember the team, want to say Reading). Technically the fastest red card ever from a specific player’s introduction
I'd argue the best was Cantona's apology for the kick when ordered to do so by the league. If your going to require someone to apologize, you better write the apology for them.
There was a funny dive in the most recent world cup, think it was england vs croatia. the english goalkeeper made a really good save and as they were passing him one of the croation players give him a pat on the back as if to say 'nice, that was a good save' etc. and the keeper went down as if he'd been shot. it was hillarious.
Just to show how tough female soccer players can be, Alex Morgan, one of the best soccer players in US, had her knee dislocated that she immediately fixed and kept playing.
3 seconds is blisteringly fast. He would cheat and be offsides a leg or two when the whistle blew, then off to the races. Id do the same when i played center striker to screw up the other side's 2nd touch after kickoff. Still...3 seconds of sprint and committing an egregious foul is something to marvel at.
I once went to a Derby County match. The referee was so bad he was replaced at half time. Also if you want to find out about an example of a crooked referee, check out the match between South Korea and Italy in the 2002 world cup.
I think my favorite or least favorite given that it was against a player from my team was back in 2010, in a Champions league game between my club FC Copenhagen against Barcelona, when the Barca goalkeeper Victor Valdez jumped out of the penalty box foot first straight to the face of our then forward Dame N'doye and of course was only given a yellow.
For me one of the hands-down best films that Vinnie has ever been in is Survive Style 5+ by Gen Sekiguchi. It’s a film with five simultaneous storylines that slowly merged together and Vinnie plays a hitman and he does such a freaking good job. 10/10 would recommend, hilarious.
Been binging Fact fiend for like 3 days...Didn't even know Mean Machine existed until I watched your Longest Yard video. Mean Machine is def the better version.
I remember watching a FA Cup game with Mansfield Town and Stoke. Robert Huth literally karate kicked a Mansfield Player. Dont think he even got a yellow. 🤦♂️
I still remember being at St. Andrews when Martin Taylor broke Eduardo's leg. That snap was so loud. It looked like Taylor was going in for the tackle at a decent time and then you just heard CRACK, followed by Eduardo's bone bulging out the side of his sock.
I know it isn't your guys football, but there was that american football superbowl game. I can't remember the exact year, like 2007, but the Seahawks were playing and the ref's kept calling the worst plays. It was awful.
@@internetguy692 actually it originates from Norway as the term soccer derives from the old word socher meaning agile foot. The leader of the French resistance, Howard Green, adopted the word for his newly invented sport. After being captured by British soldiers, Howard requested that he be freed if he beat them in a 1v12 match of soccer. He lost and was sentenced to 120 hours of community service because of it. So you're wrong, learn the facts please
What about the player from the Netherlands who kicked one of the Spanish players in the chest during the finals of a world/cup or European championship a few years ago. He was somehow allowed to continue playing.
I think the same year that Reading v Watford game happened there was another goal in the same league that was given but never went in, I think it was Crystal Palace v Bristol City but my memory isn't too great
You do not start from opposite ends. You need to be on your side of the pitch, even a millimeter from the middle line will do. The circle in the center is also forbidden from the defense but it still only about 10 yards/meters distance.
I have a proposition. For as long as the male players continue to put on Razzie Award winning performances with their injuries, their division shall be called Soccer. They can earn back the title of Football when they give Oscar worthy performances.
i suspect it had something to do with reaching a wider audience. Although perhaps calling it just football would've made for good North American clickbait to unsuspecting NFL fans.
another player that may be interesting to cover would be neil 'razor' ruddock(from that nickname you know he doesnt play nice) he once broke both andy coles legs in a single tackle...apparently he told the ref that cole dived...
Fact Fiend? Contains no fact-checking apparently. Haaland played a few days later for his country and again in his club's next fixture. He did retire soon after due to a knee injury, his left knee.

He works from 9 to 10.....

*Clears throat*
"S.O.F.A."
The video ref is a key tool in rugby and it adds more tension when it's used to verify a try.
And _even_ more tension when it's used to invalidate one.
Every major team sport uses video refs and precise time keeping and it works just fine. It's just Association Football that weirdly insists on acting like it's 1889 and they are a bunch of factory workers who can only afford one whistle and one watch among the 25 of them.
*Last name is Smallwood*
*Gets a mug that says "size matters" in it*
The best role was one where he was completely silent until the very last scene of the movie and then just drops the most philosophical bit of dialog in the movie.
Vinnie Jones in the musical comedy series "Galavant"
and actually singing. a romantic duet. Horribly.

The best foul was when Cantona went and kung fu kicked that fan in the crowd
I'd argue the best was Cantona's apology for the kick when ordered to do so by the league. If your going to require someone to apologize, you better write the apology for them.
It's the touching of the hairs which can cause footballer to fall down and sprain the leg and arm
"That's just Vinnie n a nutshell" - in combination with the pic, a the perfect pun
You guys should do the time the ref sent off the wrong player during the arsenal v chelsea game lmao

I think that it was Robbie Savage who reputedly had a referee go up to him at the start of a game and show him a yellow card.
This channel is much more enjoyable when drunk
Smallwood hold a cup that says "size matters". Priceless.
Just to show how tough female soccer players can be, Alex Morgan, one of the best soccer players in US, had her knee dislocated that she immediately fixed and kept playing.
Love him in Galavant.
Vinnie Jones is a beast. Love the guy.
