Stupid Sports Stories of the Week


Hello Procrastinators!

Here's a few sport-related stories which are tragic, hilarious or ridiculous. Or a mix of the three.

TAKEDOWN




A move the Undertaker himself would be proud of. If this was the Premier League, the world would be up in arms about football condoning violence, but it's non-league so we're allowed to enjoy a good old fashion body slam.


An untimely reminder that racism still plays a big part in football



The now infamous Paris Metro incident highlights the fact that football will always create hooliganism, but the latest example from Chelsea fans is not only embarrassing for English football, but also a disgusting display of racism.

Mayweather v Pacquiao - finally!!

Its official, the fight between Money and the Pacman is finally happening on the 2nd of May at the MGM, Las Vegas. If this happened 5 years ago when both fighters were in their prime, I'd be buzzing with excitement, but lets face it, it's a fight between two has-beens looking to cash in on a final fight.

What are Brentford thinking?!

Mark Warburton, the man who led Brentford from a mid-table League One side to a team fighting for the play-offs in the Championship has been sacked. Madness. The reasoning behind this is a continental restructuring, involving a head coach and a sporting director. Good luck with that Brentford.

Matic v Barnes




Ashley Barnes performs a horror tackle on Nemanja Matic, to which he responds, understandably, with a mammoth push. And who gets sent off? Matic! What a farce. It's also been announced today that no further action will be taken on Barnes. Ridiculous.
