There is such a thing as just being that little bit too dedicated.

Enter Geoffrey Huish, thirty-one from Senghenydd, who famously decided to cut his genitals off in celebration of Wales’s win over England last year.

For whatever reason The Sun (have they ever needed one not to?) have deemed it necessary for Geoffrey to recall his story nine months on.

Subtly does not appear to be his friend unfortunately, as he recounts “The cutters were blunt so I had to keep snipping.”

“I’d told my pal Gethin Probert before the game that Wales didn’t stand a chance.”

Geoffrey, from Senghenydd in the Welsh Valleys, listened to the game on the radio by himself and popped to the bathroom afterwards, where he saw the wire cutters.

“I thought, ‘Oh no, I haven’t got to do anything like that, have I?’ Then I thought, ‘You can do it’.

“So I started hacking away at my tackle. It took about 10 minutes and there was quite a lot of pain - but I just kept going.

Sadly though, hacking off your privates in a fit of delight has it’s repercussions, consequently the chance of any little Geoffreys’ is out of the question. Perhaps only then does it dawn on you quite how needlessly sad the whole thing is, even if some may say it isn’t the worst outcome for social services.
