"Take care."

Chasing the game, we pay great respect to the opposition,do I not like that{bless him)

[h again]

Good thread this. Keep it up, because I was going to suggest "professional foul", but then I realised that public pressure had got it wiped out.
So let's go with "taking one for the team" - the yellow card for the professional foul,or cheating to be accurate.

A couple gleaned from involvement in the women's game.

1 "man on"??

One player having issues with her team mates contributions, "come on you lot, don't think I'm running my b. l.. cks off all afternoon"

Man is fine with me as we are all from mankind/human race, your other one is funny as.

Sunday league when anyone is remotely better than the opponents - "They've got a 'ringer' in."

Agreed, baller appears to be a term used primarily by tools.
Number 10 role - used as if this can only be performed by some form of other worldly being. It’s an attacking midfielder.
Champions league - the epitome of over rewarded mediocrity in football today, you only have to finish fourth to be in the ‘champions’ league a tournament carefully structured to make the rich richer whilst giving the false impression that other clubs are being given a chance.
Any way that people get on their high horses and try and make out modern football is some incredible science that can only be understood by people in the game and geniuses, it’s 22 people kicking a bag of wind about, get over yourselves.

Champions League "of course". Don't get me started on that one, I hate this competition with a passion. The old knock out competions were so much more exiting to watch. Champions Leage, where teams who are not only Champions of Premier League, Bundesliga, La Liga etc but also runners up, third and fourth place clubs can qualify. It's a completion invented to make the rich clubs richer and creates a divide between the remaining clubs. A competions where teams not winning there respective leagues can be Champions!, Where a club does not qualify for the later stages are instead relegated to the Europa League. There is nothing like rewarding failure.

Does it show that I dispise the Champions League 😁

I would say so scooby ! Agree 100% with you. It's all about the brass, fueling the respective football federations coffers.

Assistant Referee. What was wrong with Linesman?

[fishini]

What about covering every blade of grass? Or running the channels? Then there's 'He had every right to go down' basically he had every right to cheat

[Fat Lady Singing]

Hoddles “cute little ball” is one I despise, in fact Hoddle commentating I despise and Spurs are my second team.
“A good engine” although not so much used now.
Why don’t they use more “couldn’t score in a brothel” type of of comments, would be much more entertaining in my eyes.

Agree, every right to go down = cheating
Also my footballing pet hate, players who cheat in the run up to take a penalty, that really really really effing winds me up.

Another one is "Erm," after every word from a player.

Agreed, although in Steven Gerrards case I prefer the 'erm's to the alternating words.

He had every right to go down - usually following the lightest of touches and some primadonna doing a swan dive in the penalty box

It's the far parking bay in the Tesco car park. technically a difficult feat, as you need precision to get it under the roof and around the lift bay.
Like Alan shearers premier league goalscoring record, I doubt that ewbanks-Blake's three in a single half of football can every be broken.
