Barnsley Keeper Plays With Himself To Stay Up!
Sun May 05, 2013 3:20 pm
Yorkshire rivals Huddersfield and Barnsley were drawing 2-2 at the John Smith's Stadium but David Flitcroft's Oakwell side were in the bottom three with Peterborough level with Crystal Palace by the same scoreline.
However, Mile Jedinak headed home a late winner for Palace at Selhurst Park, which meant Peterborough dropped into the relegation zone.
News of that goal filtered through to Huddersfield, where next week's FA Cup Final referee Andre Marriner signalled five minutes of injury time.
However, that produced one of the strangest sights at a football ground this season. With his team safe from the spectre of relegation, Barnsley goalkeeper Luke Steele collected the ball from long punt from the Huddersfield defence.
The 28-year-old, who was born in Peterborough, then refused to pass the ball and simply dribbled with it back and forth across his own penalty area for 80 seconds until Marriner blew his whistle to signal the end of the game.

The thread name is a tad dodgy.
