I know it happens a lot in the lower leagues, but used to be common in the premier league 

William Prunier must be the most famous example. I didn’t know that he was actually offered and extended trial in 1996.

The obligatory FA Cup Final chart song.  'In dee cup for Tottingham'

Liverpool Anfield Rap 1988
Manchester Utd Come on You Reds by Status Quo 1996

Cant remember any others though because they were all sh*te.  I remember they'd be on Top of the Pops and everything.

Refs being a tad theatrical when giving a red card (generally continental refs) 
Eamonn Dunphy:"I'll tell you who wrote it, Rod Liddle, he's the guy who ran away and left his wife for a young one".

Remember him alright, I think he was from Mexico - don't think I've ever seen such an extrovert referee. He also did the final in which he sent off 2 Argentina players and awarded the penalty from which Andreas Brehme scored the winner for West Germany in a dreadful match.
The nation holds it's breath...YES, WE'RE THERE!!!

Do teams still wear ‘away shorts’ with their home kit, when the shirts don’t clash, but the shorts do. I remember in the 1990s Man United would have a black version of their home shorts in games against City, Oldham etc.

Players swallowing their tongues.
It was far across the sea,
When the devil got a hold of me,
He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.

I remember Kevin Moran swallowing his. Could be down to a lower level of contact being tolerated these days.

Players taking off their shin guards during a penalty shootout.
