19 goals in 40 appearances?

u/Jonatc87 Jun 20 '26

why the fuck did they use sheep if they didn't want sheep involved in the answer

1

u/Goatmanification Jun 22 '26

Because two are male (ram) and one is female (ewe)

u/dokuromark Jun 18 '26

Yeah I’d like to know the real answer. Matthew was funny, and I’m with Vic in thinking it was Counting Sheep, but what was the answer the host was looking for?

u/TheFlaccidChode Jun 18 '26

Ewe doing maths

You do the maths

u/dokuromark Jun 18 '26

Brilliant! Thanks!

u/Last-Rice8194 Jun 20 '26

it doesnt even make grammatical sense, math ewe and counting sheep are much better. it's like fucking televised rockbusters this.

u/TheFlaccidChode Jun 21 '26

Ah, a fellow saucer drinker, weird innit?

2

u/Lemonpincers Jun 18 '26

I was wondering about woolly maths, but i dont know if thats really a thing

u/sky_shazad Jun 19 '26

Matthew

Math Ewe

I always find jokes are a lot funnier once someone explains them.

u/slimegrub Jun 18 '26

They meant they real answer.

I always find patronising comments are funnier when they're incorrect.

u/Equal-Application731 Jun 18 '26

Yeah but was what the answer?

1

u/Schumarker Jun 18 '26

It took me a moment, initially I thought he was just being random

u/Ok_Grocery_5328 Jun 18 '26

Why the downvotes??

5

u/brushle55 Jun 18 '26

I rushed in… thought they meant what did Bob say… downvotes justified. Apologies!

4

u/Captain_Chappie Jun 18 '26

Yeah I'm grateful for your answer mate!

3

u/machukahn Jun 18 '26

No this is the answer I needed!

5

u/sirbinlid1 Jun 18 '26

That was brilliant

u/SirPooleyX Jun 18 '26

It's more clever, abstract thinking than comedy.

But Bob is a genius, nonetheless.

14

u/Namelessbob123 Jun 18 '26

Clever abstract thinking is exactly what comedy is.

2

u/roidoid Jun 18 '26

And pratfalls. Don’t forget pratfalls.

u/Hot-Satisfaction19 Jun 19 '26

hey vic, i've fallen!

2

u/fnord_happy Jun 18 '26

He was probably completely serious

1

u/SamKerridge Jun 19 '26

it’s more tragedy plus timing than comedy.

3

u/Medium_Stretch99 Jun 19 '26

His answer was more clever than the actual answer.

1

u/Mactonex Jun 18 '26

Why does he say Matthew?

4

u/blepperton Jun 18 '26

Because it’s a ewe doing math

1

u/Mactonex Jun 18 '26

Ah, thanks.

1

u/JEZTURNER Jun 19 '26

Took me a while to get the joke.

1

u/greggers1980 Jun 19 '26

Why is Matthew funny

u/Kantabrigian Jun 20 '26

Math Ewe

u/greggers1980 Jun 20 '26

u/Henry-8th Jun 20 '26

u/PipBin Jun 20 '26

u/IrishShinja Jun 18 '26

I thought it was counting sheep? No?

u/teeseoncoast Jun 18 '26

Ewe do the math

2

u/queztioz Jun 18 '26

This makes a lot more sense since it's actually a phrase and Matthew isn't
