6. I had it on live, but with the sound off, and half paying attention

I glanced at it, when they were readying for a free kick near the Palace goal. One of the Macclesfield players was adjusting the head bandage of another, and I thought "I want the guy continuing to play with a head bandage to score with a header" - and he did!

And as the report says:

The team, placed 14th in National League North, is still coming to terms with the loss of its 21-year-old forward Ethan McLeod, who was killed in a car crash travelling back from a match he played in at Bedford Town on Dec. 16. A banner bearing his name hung behind the dugouts at the Palace game and his family were in the stands to watch.
