There's a time and a place for dabbing in football. That time is never and that place is nowhere.

Okay, almost never and almost nowhere. https://twitter.com/BigDorinGoian/status/776077407283359744 Sutton United were enjoying one of their most famous moments in nearly 30 years, beating a Leeds United side more than 80 places above them in the English football pyramid. Neutrals up and down the country were enjoying the underdog story, made possible by a Jamie Collins penalty shortly after half-time. But then this happened. https://twitter.com/MarkUpsonTV/status/825728737354346501 You could see the moment the fan realised he was on TV. There was a split-second's pause, as if he was wondering to himself 'do I really do this?'. And then he decided to go ahead with it. Viewers were taken aback, immediately losing all pride they had in the performance of the non-leaguers. https://twitter.com/BrettCotterill/status/825743579503067139 https://twitter.com/DanielJenks89/status/825729354479071232 We've never seen Leeds United gain so many fans in such a short space of time. https://twitter.com/LewisBullen_93/status/825728750193147904 https://twitter.com/Ollieargyle9/status/825729404382883841 https://twitter.com/Krullceratops/status/825728500090957825 https://twitter.com/pahRuaidhri/status/825729817849057280 Even the Leeds fans watching the game had something to cling to despite their defeat. https://twitter.com/MollyWhitmore1/status/825729394761142272 If that's how fans will react during a fourth round win, imagine what will happen if Sutton find themselves on the verge of a place in the quarter-finals.
