"It's only Ray Parlour" remain four of the most infamous words in English football commentary 21 years after Tim Lovejoy uttered them during Arsenal's 2002 FA Cup final clash against Chelsea.
The midfielder, affectionately dubbed the 'Romford Pele', scored the opening goal for the Gunners during their 2-0 victory over the Blues in Cardiff. Lovejoy, a well-known Chelsea supporter, was on the commentary duty for the fixture alongside Arsenal fan and actor Bradley Walsh on the now defunct Fanzone feature.
When Parlour picked the ball up from distance, Lovejoy was clearly not concerned about any imminent threat. He was so relaxed in fact, he opted to publicly announce how unfazed he was - until the Arsenal midfielder unleashed a thunderous strike beyond the despairing dive of goalkeeper Carlo Cudicini.
