Peter Crouch does one last robot to celebrate his 100th Premier League goal
Crouchy’s having his nostalgia
Two days after his 36th birthday, Peter Crouch scored his 100th Premier League goal in Stoke’s 1–1 draw with Everton. And to mark the occasion, he brought back one of the game’s most memorable celebrations.
Crouch first did the robot way back in 2006 on England duty and it instantly became a sensation.
Perhaps realizing the importance of keeping people wanting more, Crouch then put the robot away…until his big milestone on Wednesday.
“I’ve been under so much pressure to pull out the robot,” he said after the match. “So to be honest it was a little bit rusty. I think I’ll put that one away now.”
So that’s it. A fitting end to Crouchy’s robot. Now we can only imagine that he went out for nachos after this.

Switzerland’s Xherdan Shaqiri scored a brilliant overhead kick before his side lost to Poland on penalties. It invited a warranted amounted of praise, but it also inspired some jokes.

This is a video of Sunderland manager Sam Allardyce going hard in Marbella, Spain after saving his club from relegation. Presumably this was filmed before he started rolling on Molly, stripped naked, and slathered himself in BBQ sauce.
If you want to compare his moves to those of other Premier League level dancers, here’s Roberto Martinez in action at a Jason Derulo concert and Peter Crouch going HAM in Ibiza…
A funny and frighteningly accurate parody of transfer window coverage
Transfer coverage has morphed into a parody of itself, right down to dildos in the ears of Sky Sports reporters, but there is still so much to make fun of. Thankfully, Anthony Richardson (Bad British Commentary and How Will They Line Up?) has put together a condensed version of what we’re in for on Deadline Day.
The next time you go shopping for computer parts, keep an eye out for Peter Crouch.
Letters from Bojan: A dream shatters
The earnest question of whether Lionel Messi could do it on a cold, wet night in Stoke has persisted as a cliched joke for a few years now. So when Barcelona surprisingly sold Bojan, a 24-year-old once hyped as the next Messi, to Stoke City, the only explanation was that Messi personally asked him to go there on an expedition to see if the conditions in this mythical place are as challenging as the fables suggest. This is Bojan’s fifth letter back to his friend.

Peter Crouch is really tall and this jockey he met in Dubai is really small, so they decided to delight the world with their one-foot and seven inch height difference by posing together in a photograph. How considerate of them.
Letters from Bojan: A taste of glory
