My team, Watford, played at Southampton on Saturday, and came away with a 1-1 draw.
The game featured a couple of major talking points: one, where Southampton had what I and many others thought looked like a decent goal ruled out by the referee, and another when we had a great shout for a penalty turned down (and the Saints player who took out our player would probably have received a second yellow card for the offence meaning he’d have been sent off).
After the game, the Southampton player who’d scored the goal that was disallowed, Charlie Austin, went on a rant – quite understandably – during a TV interview.
Then Ryan Butterworth got hold of it and made this:

It went viral.
“It’s why the internet was invented,” said Chris Sutton, who won the league with Blackburn, on the radio.
“Is he going to get done for that?” asked Ian Wright, who won the league with Arsenal.
That last comment raises a very good point: are we allowed to use content that belongs to someone else?
I’ve added it to the list of subjects here.
