Why Tim Howard Didn’t Celebrate

Some celebration Timmy throws after beccoming just the 4th goalie to score a goal from open play in the EPL, huh? Well, Timmy, in all his modesty, explained after the game his sympathy for Bolton goalie Adam Bogdan caused him to refrain from doing cartwheels.

“I spoke to him just then and I let him know that I was feeling for him…It’s not a nice place to be. I’ve been there before, a long, long time ago and that was why I didn’t celebrate.”

Class act, that Timmy.

And indeed, Wigan’s Floyd Croll did score on Howard in a 2005 reserves match. Croll, on the other hand, didn’t hesitate to go bonkers. Jerk. What’s more, Croll tweeted right after Howard’s goal!:

@FloydCroll: I have scored to haven’t I Mr Howard #iownyoustill

Here’s video of that embarrassing moment for Howard:
