Something I didn't know about Liam Daish

Here it is, saves going via the link.

 

SENT OFF FOR BLOWING HIS OWN TRUMPET?

 

"I'm fairly sure that a few years ago, Liam Daish got sent off when a fan threw a bugle on the pitch and he picked it up and played a tune on it," says Dan Seppings. "Can anyone else confirm this?"

 

You're not far wrong, Dan. The Republic of Ireland international did incur the referee's wrath for his particularly poor Louis Armstrong impression - only he saw yellow, not red. Still, the crazy caution was enough to see Daish suspended for three matches.

 

Phillip Murray takes up the story. "On December 10, 1994, Daish - then Birmingham City captain under Barry Fry - scored a goal against Chester to make it 0-4," he says.

 

"In the ensuing celebrations, some Blues fan threw a toy trumpet onto the pitch, which Daish proceeded to play. Although he wasn't sent off, the referee booked him, taking his season's points tally to 41 and resulting in a three-match ban."

 

And Fry's reaction? Well, it wasn't as rambunctious as you might expect.

 

"I know the referee has directives to adhere to," he said in his best gor-blimey accent, "but to get banned through being booked for that seems a bit harsh."

 

Incidentally, Daish now plays a different tune for Doctor Martens Premier League side Havant & Waterlooville.

basically in a game for birmingham city against chester, liam daish scored a goal to make it 4-0. in the celebrations a trumpet landed on the pitch which daish picked up and played. For doing this he got a yellow card, which, due to his disciplinary record gave him a three match ban...

 

not that hard is it?
