[Football] Footballer As Saviour

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Anybody else noticed how being blessed with a hug from a footballer on social media seems to have acquired the status of kissing the Pope's ring?

Like Zlatan patting you on the head is worth ten Hail Marys.

Anybody else want to ?

Jesus saves...but St John scores from the rebound.

Thought it was quite a nice gesture. As an atheist I'm happy for footballers to fill the role of the Messiah.

I’d rather have a hug off a footballer than have to kiss the Pope’s ring.

My 13 year old spent a good 10 mins chatting to Adam Virgo before the Marseille game last week. He came back on cloud 9, delighted to have met someone he's heard me talk about and seen video of. I'd rather he rave and get excited about that than the prospect of meeting some old bloke who dedicates his life to an imaginary man in the sky.
