It takes a special kind of character to pull off a pre-planned goal celebration - especially when the target is the team's own manager. But that is exactly what Jimmy Bullard and his Hull City team-mates achieved to great effect at Manchester City on Saturday.

In last season's game at Eastlands, after 45 minutes Hull were already 4-0 down. Furious manager Phil Brown had dragged his team over towards the Hull City support, and proceeded to give his half-time team talk on the pitch, in the hope that the embarrassment would provoke a response.

Eleven months later, Bullard converted a second-half penalty to seal a 1-1 draw at the same ground - indeed the same end of the same ground - and celebrated by sitting his team-mates down in the same spot and wagging his finger at each one.

"We decided to do it last night," explained Bullard after the game. "He [Phil Brown] took it well.

"It was a bit of banter to do it if we scored a goal, and we agreed that whoever scored an equaliser or winning goal had to be the one who did the pointing.

"I think Paul McShane will be the one to take the flak for it."

This isn't just good. It's so much better than that.

Over in Iceland last weekend, seventh-placed Stjarnan took on ninth-placed Fylkir in a match that really only one man and his dog would have cared one iota about. Ok, so that is a bit of an exaggeration, but the official attendance was a pathetic 624.

Few in number, they were about to witness something exceptional.

After falling behind on the stroke of half-time, Stjarnan turned the match around in the second half to win 2-1. The winner arrived in injury time as striker Halldor Orri Bjornsson netted a last-gasp 'Panenka' penalty, but it was the incredible goal celebration which will turn this video into a worldwide smash hit.

Aided by defender Johann Laxdal, who took the role as the fish, the Stjarnan squad at large produced what could well win the award as the best goal celebration of the 2010-11 season.
