For some reason (juvenile sense of humour) I always find it amusing when photographers, cameramen and linesmen get wiped out by players as they slide off the pitch after a tackle or cross etc. Was watching some old footage of England V Scotland in 1977 and realised there is an absolute cracker that I had never noticed before in the build up to Kenny Dalglish's goal. Willie Johnstone hares down the wing running on to a fabulous pass from Asa Hartford..he only just manages to get the cross in (that leads to the Dalglish Goal) and absolutely obliterates a photographer as he leaves the pitch...not mentioned in commentary but I suspect they had to surgically remove the Nikon from his Erchie !!

Worth watching the whole clip, but the collision with the photographer is there if you watch from 4.50sec onwards.

Anyone got any other favourite slasptick football moments ?
