message: Stephen Mangan: Who's that?
Paul Merton: Bobby Charlton.
Stephen Mangan: Right profession.
Suzanne Evans: Somebody old in football. Is that it?
Stephen Mangan: He will be thrilled to hear that. [Pause] It's Ray Wilkins.
Paul Merton: Why's he been in the news?
Stephen Mangan: He hasn't. [Cut to shot of Merton theatrically 'looking amazed' / cut to shot of Mangan raising his eyebrows]. 
Stephen Mangan: Suck it up. [HIGNFY panel and audience laughter all round].
Q: Anyone care to elaborate on the joke?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 27.253.63.49 (talk) 12:33, 23 April 2016 (UTC)

message: The ball he threw at Gonzalez actually landed in front of the referee's feet, who stopped the ball like players do. But of course it doesn't matter whether you hit the referee or not. Throwing the ball at him in anger is reason enough to be sent off. --217.226.68.182 (talk) 17:37, 12 August 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: You may wish to search a certain well-known social media video site for "Ray Wilkins Red Card: England V.S Morocco in Mexico WC1986" posted by "Hamza Erresmy" on "17 Apr 2014". I wouldn't directly dare link to that clip here, of course, in case I get "sent off". Martinevans123 (talk) 22:46, 4 April 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: The current source is this: which does indeed say he threw the ball "at the official". A quick look at the video clip confirms that the ball landed some way in front of the referee. Martinevans123 (talk) 15:46, 5 April 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm also wondering about the neutrality of using a contemporary Scottish newspaper, The Glasgow Herald, as the only source for a report about an English football match. Martinevans123 (talk) 12:54, 6 April 2018 (UTC)

message: I've read the lead a couple of times now, every time I read it, it feels fragmented. The way the events are listed with comma's and Ands seems suspect in language, maybe someone better than me in English can review it, tell me if I am making too much of a fuss.
