Ross Kinnaird/GettyI’m sure you’ve seen more than a few tweets along the lines of ‘If Leicester City win the league, I’ll…’ by now, but chances are most of them have gone unnoticed.
One person who wasn’t so lucky is Twitter user and Arsenal fan @arsenalscannon, after his tweet from back in December was seized upon when Leicester claimed the title last night.
Over 7,000 retweets later, the unfortunate user has been addressing his statement and desperately trying to backtrack.
Here’s his original tweet, which went viral last night:
I will chop off my balls and feed them to my dog while recording it if Leicester win the league. That how sure i am they will collapse.

He soon regretted it…
@ArsenalsCannon Fuck off who found this FFS
— Assist Wizard (@ArsenalsCannon) April 3, 2016
He made a desperate plea for people to stop:
@ArsenalsCannon Would people stop retweeting this right now. Thank you
— Assist Wizard (@ArsenalsCannon) April 30, 2016
But they didn’t, and the pressure soon mounted for the video:
People already begging for the video. The league hasn't been won yet ffs.
— Assist Wizard (@ArsenalsCannon) May 2, 2016
And he soon appealed for some medical advice:
@ArsenalsCannon Can any doctor advise how this operation can be performed without pain?

Obviously because he’s an Arsenal fan, he couldn’t resist getting them involved:
Spurs are frauds. Only relevant in the title race coz Arsenal bottled and allowed them in.
— Assist Wizard (@ArsenalsCannon) May 2, 2016
Where the fuck even is that fraud Hazard? Might just unfraud today.
— Assist Wizard (@ArsenalsCannon) May 2, 2016
Maybe Chelsea are trying to hold onto the title for 1 more week.
— Assist Wizard (@ArsenalsCannon) May 2, 2016
Cahillllllllllllll 2-1. Come on
— Assist Wizard (@ArsenalsCannon) May 2, 2016
At this rate i would even cheer a Costa dive penalty
— Assist Wizard (@ArsenalsCannon) May 2, 2016
Hazaaaaarrrrddddddddddddd fuck yesssss
— Assist Wizard (@ArsenalsCannon) May 2, 2016
Hazard was never a fraud
— Assist Wizard (@ArsenalsCannon) May 2, 2016
Leicester need to have a Hazard statue at the King Power stadium.
— Assist Wizard (@ArsenalsCannon) May 2, 2016
Spurs are worse bottlers than Arsenal
— Assist Wizard (@ArsenalsCannon) May 2, 2016
The final whistle sounded, and it soon dawned on the poor bugger what that actually meant:
@ArsenalsCannon Oh dear fuck
— Assist Wizard (@ArsenalsCannon) May 2, 2016
@ArsenalsCannon Mentions are unreal. Im dead
— Assist Wizard (@ArsenalsCannon) May 2, 2016
@ArsenalsCannon The video will only be posted once i return from the emergency room.
— Assist Wizard (@ArsenalsCannon) May 2, 2016
Unlucky mate, I doubt the NHS will cover that operation…
