Weimann's celebration is a cross between Lampard's vomit-inducing pointing at the sky, and Robbie Keane's sort of six-shooter Wild West gunslinger action.  It certainly beats Emile Heskey's pretend DJ mixing deck effort, although that was seen so infrequently I'm amazed I even remember it.

The only goal celebration I remember from Heskey was that one when England won 5-1 in Germany, and he did a cricketing thing. Or was it golf?

There are two reasons why I don't recall his celebrations for us. One is that there were so few of them, the other is that, when he did score, I was invariably undergoing a period of  shaking uncontrollably, as my body went into shock at said goal events.

I don't mind Lampard's one. I guess he's pointing at his mom in heaven. We all love our moms (unless you're Tony Soprano) so he can't really be blamed for missing her.

I hate the joint celebration ones where about 6 or 7 team mates stand in line and swing their arms in unison. It's all very silly.

It would have to involve at least a couple of players to pull off.

Bloody hell, you'll be suggesting a reach-around next.

Very appropriate if it is the goal celebrating yet another title or...er...two consecutive league wins

Actually, if you follow any of our younger players on Twitter, you quickly realise that all they ever do is go to Costa, to Nandos and play FIFA 13 or Call of Duty.

We should probably be grateful they're not fashioning goal celebrations out of ordering a grande latte, or trying to pick someone off at 50 yards with a sniper rifle.

Mind you, to be fair, it's not as if we actually get the chance to see many goal celebrations these days.

Not sure the latte celebration would work. It would have to involve at least a couple of players to pull off. One serving, with the scorer waiting for his coffee, tapping his feet for ages while the line of other players behind him grows. He'd then finally get served only to turned around a get a yellow card for time wasting.

The Costas one would be better than the Starbucks latte celebration, as that would involve the scorer being asked for his name for the invisible cup.

fucking Costas. Can't make a regular, everyday cup of coffee if their lives depended on it. I asked for a bit of cream in my coffee and one sugar. I didn't ask for a pint of churned cow and tooth decay

It has nothing to do with the arrival of newly born children either.

It's actually the amount of win bonus which is said to be paid in cash.

I wonder what Lawro's goal celebration would be like if he was playing today? Maybe a 'i'm a little teapot' type effort me thinks.

He'd do a number in a sparkly evening dress and jump into the arms of 4 men in top hat and tails.

More likely reminding the big man that he wants a place saving ahead of his teammate.

Jimmy Bullard did a funny one when he scored at Man City for Hull and he took the piss out of Phil Brown when he made the players sit in the penalty area at half time to get a bollocking.

I'm sure that was when he did his pretend hold his headphones against his ear while pretending to spin a disc one.

Chris Herd has been getting a fair amount of abuse on his page, out of order really but it's a public site.

Have you seen his missus? Wow. Just wow.
