Wayne Shaw, the man they call the "roly-poly goalie" was prompted to eat the pie after hearing that a bookmaker was offering odds of 8-1 on him eating on live television during their match at Gander Green Lane. Shaw apparently had some buddies who put money on the bet and decided he wanted to have a little fun. So he went to the local bar at halftime and got himself a pie.

During the 83rd minute, Shaw was seen taking a deep bite into the scrumptious snack--which he said was a meat and potatoes pie. It's worth noting that Shaw ate the pie after all three substitutions had been made, which is the most substitutions you can make in world soccer so there was no chance of Shaw going into the game.

The Football Association and Gambling Commission has launched an investigation into the incident, noting that Shaw might have breached their gambling regulations.

Shaw resigned less than 24 hours following the match after his incident gained a lot of criticism in the public eye.

The 320-pound goalie had this to say, "A few of the lads said to me earlier on, 'What is going on with the 8-1 about eating a pie?' I said, 'I don't know, I have eaten nothing all day so I might give it a go later on.'" — The 320-pound goalie had this to say, “A few of the lads said to me earlier on, ‘What is going on with the 8-1 about eating a pie?’ I said, ‘I don’t know, I have eaten nothing all day so I might give it a go later on.’”

Bruce Elliott, the chairman of Sutton, had this to say about Shaw, "If you knew the roly-poly goalkeeper you probably wouldn't be very surprised, but Wayne is a top man." It seems like he's a well-liked guy who was just looking for a good laugh, so we're rooting for him to land back on his feet with a pie or two in his hand.
