Celtic 0 : 3 Inverness
Super Caley Go Ballistic, Celtic Are Atrocious (Sun)

Celtic 1 - 3 Inverness.

'In truth, though, the gag could most charitably be described as a homage, given that the Liverpool Echo had beaten the Sun to the pun(ch) by nearly three decades, reporting a 1970s Ian Callaghan masterclass against Queens Park Rangers thus: SUPER CALLY GOES BALLISTIC, QPR ATROCIOUS.'

Always remember a friend who worked for a local paper, always used to get away with some real great headlines with his articles usually full of puns.  But the one I remember him being particularly happy with was a drug charity receiving some cash and he managed to get away with the headline  A  shot in the arm for ..........  and proceeded with details of a cash injection

Come now, the best by far is the one I saw in my local rag a few years back:

"Local Man Dies of Natural Causes"

One I think I've mentioned on here before...from our very own Adver, no less:

Parkin Fears Jock's Trap
Saturday, Aug 12th 2006

Rochdale, managed by Steve Parkin, were visiting the County Ground that day.  And Steve was wary of the threat provided by Lee Peacock, who he had worked with at Mansfield earlier in his career.

This one was a classic from The Sun.

The Sun makes the Daily Mail look progressive

I have to say, SuperCali nicked or not, this is the second brilliant Sun Headline and there is no, er, organ that boasts quite such an irreverent and creative (ab)use of the English Language
