The next time Kemar Roofe shouts "on me head" to a teammate, he'll probably be hoping it's a football rather than a custard pie!
Along with his Oxford United comrades Johnny Mullins, Freddie Grant and Chey Dunkley, Roofe appeared on Nicktoons UK & Ireland as part of Nickelodeon UK's brand-new football programme – and got a face full of custard!

The footballers appeared on Nick Kicks, which lets fans of football clubs gain access behind the scenes to meet their Footballing heroes.
The 30-year-old defender Johnny Mullins said he enjoyed taking part in the show, which airs on Saturday 13th February 2016 at 8am, and on Sunday 14th February 2016 at 7am.
He added: "It was good fun to film. There were two elements to it, a technical challenge and then a bit of fun where people got custard-pied.

"There was quite a big audience for that part, with most of the squad watching from behind the camera.
"I think it's a great way to show the light-hearted side of the club, and if a few of the kids who watch it then come along to see a match as a result then it will have been very worthwhile."

As part of the 22-minute programme, the U's stars were asked 11 quick-fire questions, which included who's their favourite Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle? Members of the squad were also asked to do impressions of their favourite animals.
The next section of the episode which involves some of the player's being custard-pied is set to air at a later date.
U's fans and players are enjoying the increase in media attention since the club made it to the JPT final at Wembley.
Alison Bakunowich, head of editorial for Nickelodeon, said: "We know that kids love football, whether it's played in stadiums or in the back garden, so it is brilliant to be producing a series that will bring families a Nickelodeon take on the nation's top sport.
"Nick Kicks is going to be funny and will give fans a unique look at their favourite clubs and players."
Presented by Roman Kemp and Rachel Stringer with commentary from Peter Pundit, the programme features highlights from the week's football as well as the humorous moments and a look ahead to upcoming games.
Nickelodeon megastar SpongeBob SquarePants also plays a part in the series as he takes on club mascots in weekly challenges.
Shaun Harvey, chief executive of the Football League said: "Offering a fun insight in to life at clubs up and down the country, Nick Kicks will help us to engage and inspire a new generation of fans."
