Meet The Deaf Football Team Who Concieved 164 Goals.Lol


An amateur football team made up of deaf players want their relegation to be called off – because their players couldn’t hear the referee’s whistle during matches.

Birmingham Deaf FC lost 25 of their 26 fixtures during their local league, conceding 164 goals in the process, meaning they finished bottom of division five.

The team, which was formed in 1921 and is made up of nearly all deaf players, have been relegated two divisions as punishment, but they claim it’s all the ref’s fault…


‘The referees are supposed to wave flags while, at the same time, blowing a whistle,’ said club official Guy Whieldon.
                                  
‘Most referees forget to wave or simply don’t want to use a flag. The ref would blow for a stoppage and they would continue to play.’

BDFC were given a nine-point deduction earlier this year for failing to turn up to matches as a protest, and become the first team ever in the division to end on minus points.


The club say they will consider dropping out all together.
