A polarising tactic among football fans.
“F**kin’ ridiculous,” most action-thirsty neutrals or frustrated fans of the losing side bellow when they see a player hold the ball up at the corner flag in the dying minutes.
But that’s a different story when it’s your team in the lead, ain’t it? Then it’s all “ah fair play” or “it’s well within the rules.”
Charlton’s fans were so happy with Tony Watt’s ability to waste time in the corner, in fact, that they broke out a rendition of “Tony Watt, Watt, Watt” to the tune of “Feeling hot, hot, hot.”
Genius chanting to accompany some top notch time wastery.
Watt and teammate Jordan Cousins kept the ball out of Forest’s possession for almost two and half minutes with their corner flag expertise during their 2-1 victory at The Valley last night.
