INCREDULOUS viewers piled in with low blows on Tommy Fury after the boxer's "absolutely mad" throw-in blunder at Soccer Aid.

Some fans even reckoned Tyson Fury's younger brother had "never watched football".
Tommy, 25, held the ball above his head on the sideline as he assessed where to throw it during the huge charity match at Stamford Bridge.
But he suddenly moved to below his waist and rolled it in.
The ball was quickly hurled back for a team-mate to take the throw properly.

But as sharp as that action was, it wasn't fast enough to stop the ring conqueror of YouTube brothers Jake Paul and KSI being KO'd by fans.
One posted: "Tommy Fury has just actually done an underarm throw in.. absolutely mad that he doesn’t know the rules of football."
Loads more viewers pointed out his mishap.
And observations included: "Look at the state of this..." "I don’t know why he keeps getting invited back" and "What is he doing, I’m crying".
