As you might have heard, today is Back to the Future day.
To mark the occasion of the date to which Marty McFly and Doc Brown travel in the sequel to the 80s classic, we have been watching the entire Back to the Future trilogy in the JOE office for hours on end.
And after the third or fourth viewing, we couldn’t help but notice some similarities between the characters and some noted football figures.
Maybe it’s just our sleep-deprived minds playing tricks on us, but we reckon we’re onto something here…
George McFly and Mario Gomez
Biff Tannen and Ryan Shawcross
Marty McFly and Tim Sherwood
Lorraine Baines McFly and Joey Barton
