13 the best one-liners from Stephen Tries at the Sidemen charity match
If the drama on the pitch at the Sidemen charity match wasn’t enough, then the one-liners from commentator Stephen “Stephen Tries” Lawson got people talking online, as he took aim at the likes of KSI, MrBeast and IShowSpeed in his analysis. Joined by Hashtag United founder Spencer Owen, the YouTuber – who has more than a million subscribers on the platform – narrated the match which resulted in an 8-5 win for Sidemen FC. So, allow us to recap all of the greatest witticisms the content creator rolled out: “Speed, quick as a flash – although… I shouldn’t say flash, actually” Commenting on the streamer’s remarkable pace on the pitch, Lawson referred to last month’s scandal surrounding Speed where he accidentally exposed himself to fans during a YouTube livestream. “Chris MD there, just speaking to a woman saying how hot he is – have a day off, lad” A brutal joke given YouTuber Chris Dixon reportedly split from his girlfriend earlier this year. “Simon is a born winner. The only thing he’s ever lost is my invite to his wedding.” Simon “Miniminter” Minter married singer Talia Mar earlier this year. “MrBeast, the most subbed man on YouTube. What does that tell you? He’s got bad stamina!” A cheeky play on words about MrBeast and his 182 million subscribers. “WillNE is wearing a camera on his chest, but as we all know, it can take time to get used to playing with a strap on” No need for an explanation here... “Harry pictured his mother’s face in the top corner” Referencing the infamous 2017 video in which Harry “WroeToShaw” Lewis hit his mum in the face with a football, Stephen Tries pulled out this one-liner when the YouTuber scored the fifth goal for Sidemen FC in the second half. “I’ve never been more worried about a sub since the OceanGate incident.” One of Lawson’s edgier remarks, referring to the tragic implosion of the Titan submersible during its venture to the Titanic in July. “He’s great with his hands, even better with his elbows, it’s KSI.” KSI was in goal for this match, in order to avoid an injury ahead of his fight against Tommy Fury next month, and that led to a range of hand-related jokes about the boxer’s previous matches. This one concerned his bout against Joe Fournier which was ruled a “no contest” instead of a knockout after cameras picked up on his elbow connecting with his opponent’s face before he fell to the floor. “Great preparation for him catching Tommy Fury’s hands next month” The match takes place in Manchester on October 14. “KSI’s feeling the fury now” An easy pun, of course, in reference to KSI's rising anger at his team's defence on the pitch. “I’m not going anywhere,” says Harry - that was actually when he was defending the statue of Churchill, but we won’t go into that” Sidemen member Harry Lewis is known for making edgier jokes than the rest of the group - including on Brexit, refugees and immigration – and was the only member of the Sidemen to not issue an apology following a Sidemen upload which saw KSI say a racial slur. “Filly, a Columbian export with a powerful kick – I’ve had that before” Rapper Yung Filly played for the YouTube All-Stars during the match at London Stadium. “Mr Beast cured 100 people’s blindness, Deji wasn’t one of them” When KSI’s brother Deji Olatunji was spotted wearing goggles on the pitch, Lawson brought up a recent upload by the most-subscribed YouTuber in which he paid for cataract surgery for 1,000 blind people (not the 100 people Stephen claimed). And away from Stephen Tries’ comedy, YouTuber Max Fosh got a few laughs when he responded to the first booking of the match with the good ol' Uno reverse card for referee Mark Clattenburg in the 77th minute.

Tommy Fury 'snubs' girlfriend Molly-Mae with unusual first ‘tattoo’
Even while he’s training for his boxing match against YouTuber and musician KSI (real name Olajide “JJ” Olatunji) next month, Tommy Fury has managed to find some time to reportedly get his first “tattoo” – and his choice of design has left social media users baffled. In a lengthy interview with fitness brand MyProtein, the former Love Island contestant is seen laying down on his front while a man with a tattoo gun draws the artwork in between his shoulder blades. He said of the 14 October fight in Manchester: “These guys [Jake Paul and KSI] are not trying to climb the top of the tree and achieve world titles. All these guys are interested in is viewing figures and pay-per-view buys and all sorts of stuff – they are not interested in winning. “When [KSI’s] done and I’ve knocked him out, he’s probably gonna go and release another song, he’s probably gonna go and do another podcast, he’s probably going to, I don’t know, make another YouTube video. “That’s what these guys are, whereas me, fighting’s in my blood, it runs through my veins and for generations at a time, this is all we have done. “KSI is not the man to beat Tommy Fury, just like Jake Paul wasn’t.” Tommy Fury talks KSI fight, Mayweather, and gets a tattoo | Myprotein www.youtube.com Though away from the fighting talk, Fury was apparently getting his first tattoo, despite previously batting away a suggestion from girlfriend Molly-Mae Hague to get matching ones honouring their baby daughter Bambi. “Omg, I’ve been really thinking about getting a little ‘B’ somewhere, but Tommy won’t do it with me because he doesn’t want one and I only want to do it together,” she said during an Instagram Q&A earlier this year. Yet it seems he has now changed his mind, agreeing to get a tattoo of MyProtein’s logo on his back. “It’s not as bad as I thought it was going to be,” he remarked after the procedure was complete. However, social media users aren’t convinced that the tattoo is real, as one YouTube commenter noted the artist was wielding “a tattoo gun that makes no noise”. “Shouldn’t be tattooing you whilst sitting like that as it can distort the lines/rippling in the skin. Should be laying down relaxing the body,” wrote one Instagram user. Another added: “No way is he tattooing with him leaning on his elbows!” “Exactly, especially the way his shoulders are sitting as well,” one user replied. The fight between the two boxing stars takes place on the same night as KSI’s Prime co-founder Logan Paul's bout against mixed martial artist Dillon Danis.

Dillon Danis claims Logan Paul edited clip of him stuttering during face off
Dillon Danis has claimed that a viral clip of him stuttering during a sit-down face-off with Logan Paul was edited by the infamous YouTuber to make him look bad. The two controversial personalities are squaring off in the boxing ring on October 14th in Manchester's AO arena but before that spoke to each other face-to-face for DAZN which is yet to be released in its entirety. In a clip that Paul released on his X/Twitter account, the WWE wrestler mocks the MMA fighter who struggles to get his words out during the heated confrontation. The footage shows Paul calling out Danis for "sending him so many messages" which Danis struggles to find the words to reply with. Paul immediately jumps on this telling his opponent that he sounds like he's "got Conor McGregor's n**sack in his mouth." He adds that watching him "stumble your way through these sentences is painful" before yelling "get this man a glass of water." The clip doesn't show any of Danis's replies to Paul but he has since claimed that the footage is edited. The 30-year-old wrote on X/Twitter: "This was completely edited by him to look this way. Just wait until the full thing comes out; classic Logan Paul. I can't wait for everyone to see how badly I roast him." This comes off the back of weeks of trolling by Danis towards Paul's fiance Nina Agdal, which has included Danis sharing clearly fake images and videos of the Danish model in intimate situations. However, the incessant trolling of Agdal has led to her filing a lawsuit against Danis on the grounds of the "humiliation, emotional distress, and reputational harm" that the posts have caused her.

Sidemen charity match 2023: Time, location and lineups
The Sidemen are back with another massive game for charity this year, and it’s set to be bigger than ever before. The collective have hosted a match to raise money for a good cause since back in 2016, and last year’s event proved to be one of the most entertaining moments in the YouTube calendar. The game was hosted at Charlton Athletic's The Valley. It saw The Sidemen beat the YouTube Allstars 8-7, with the event raising an incredible £2m for charity. This year, things are going up a notch – here’s everything you need to know. When is the 2023 Sidemen charity match? This year’s Sidemen match will take place on Saturday, September 9. The kick-off time is 3pm. Where is it being held? The 2023 match will take place at 62,500-capacity London Stadium in Stratford, London. Given the success of last year, it’s not surprising to see the event take place in a bigger venue. Graham Gilmore, CEO of London Stadium, said after the venue was announced: “This event goes from strength to strength, with the move to London Stadium demonstrating the success The Sidemen have built over recent years, not only in bringing so many great names together, but raising money for important charities too. "In addition, we will be delighted to welcome the huge global audience on streaming and digital channels, who will be joining the 60k plus fans in the Stadium!” Who is playing this year? The official line-up has now been announced, and some of the biggest names on YouTube will be taking part. As ever, the YouTube Allstars will likely be made up of some of the most popular names on the platform and it while it had previously been confirmed that MrBeast will play, the full list has now been revealed. The Sidemen team is as follows: KSI W2S Miniminter Vikkstar123 Behzinga Zerkaa TBJZL Callux Lazarbeam Tareq Calfreezy Randolph TBA JME MrBeast Airrack Angry Ginge Manny Wroetoshaw Deji The YouTube Allstars team is as follows: IShowSpeed xQc Danny Aarons Chandler Hallow Niko Omilana Max Fosh Kai Cenat AboFlah Chunks ChrisMD Karl Jacobs Theo Baker WillNE Filly Jackscepticey JiDion Duke Dennis Konstantine Rapper Aitch will also be performing at halftime during the show this year. YouTube All Stars will be managed again by Mark Goldbridge, while Billy Wingrove will managed The Sidemen. Meanwhile, Spencer Owen and Stephen Tries will commentate on the game, with Elz the Witch and Big Zuu set to host. Are tickets still available? Unfortunately, no tickets are available after all 62,000 tickets sold in less than 90 minutes after going on sale earlier this year. How can I watch? The game was streamed for free via The Sidemen's YouTube channel last year, and viewers will be able to watch the action on the channel again on Saturday set to start around 2:10 pm with a 3pm kick-off. Which charities are being supported? Charities being supported this year include Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM), Teenage Cancer Trust and Rays of Sunshine. "This is a major milestone for us," Zerkaa said. "When we first set up this event back in 2016, we never thought we'd be playing in a stadium of over 62,000 people. "Not only are we able to give back to our loyal fans, but being able to raise further funds for charities that are so close to our hearts give us a lot to be proud and thankful for. We can't wait to see all of you in September." Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.
