THAT celebration everyone is doing...

What the hell does it mean?

When some players score, they run off making what seems like an "A" with their fingers.

You can see Marcus Bent doing it here:

You can see Andy Johnson doing it here:

Even Titus Bramble did it today. I saw it on Soccer AM a few weeks ago they asked Andy Johnson and he said "I cant tell you... yet."

Anybody know what it means?

" thats all they've learned so far....next week they"hope to learn B "

Thanx 4 The Fish

Saw this.

A Footballer has invented a football game and it's going to be called A team or A league or similar. The players celebrating with the A sign, have a financial interest in this.

Not sure how much stock to put in this mind. Is unlikely, prem league would not be happy with it.

supposedly it was meant to be revealed on soccer am b4 xmas so some forum probably says what it is exactly

maybe it's got to do with that Gemma Atkinson from Hollyoaks, Marcus Bent was with her recently. Anyone notice Ronaldo doing that celebration!



Some forums say it's got to do with promoting Fitz Hall's charity A-Star which is probably correct as most of the players are playing or have played with "One Size" Fitz Hall.

That is certainly more likely.

It's for charity.

Its an 'against guns, knives, drugs and crime' organisation that was setup by Fitz Hall and Co...

Basically to warn kids against it and get them into sport etc

and there I was thinking it was a superficial faddish celebration, like that trumpet one that a lot of players were doing a few seasons back (including the hip Phil Neville iirc!)
