Crap football phraseology

[soggy biscuit]

'How does Harry find these gems' by wasting endless millions on a vast amount of players that the media choose to ignore because 'arry is such a 'character'

[Hugo Boss]

Can anyone explain the phrase "early doors"? It's the most bizarre of all football cliches

Anyone pronouncing Tomas Rosicky's name Rosiscky

because its a Czech name. I think its meant to have more of a t in there so Rosit-ski

foreigners.

lol.

Don't get me started on this one - It's f*cking Ro-Sicky not f*cking Ro-Sitz-Key. Rages me no end.

"in goals"

oxf*rd of townsend you c*nt
its in goal.

Used to have a Manager who said this. Never forget one day when he gave out the team and said "Tris in goals", one of our lads said "Eh?? Is he in both of them is he??" !! How we LOL'd.

Mind you, the Mrs says it all the time, as do all Jock people. Must be their influence tainting our language.

When pundits say things like..."players like your Gerrards, your Beckhams, or your Heskeys" in the plural

We need more posts from the Mr Optimists of this world

Genuine LOL!!

Rosicky himself has said that it is pronounced 'Rositski'

[Hugo Boss]

Well he's f*cking wrong - Look at the spelling of it!!

Anyway, proof needed of him stating how his name is said...

[Big Foot]

"bla bla bla has launched a scathing attack..." - invented in football by SSN

I believe his first name should also be pronounced 'Tomarsh' too.

On names Petr Cech has always annoyed me and not for the surname. Everyone says 'pet-r' yet any customers I have with this name (I deal with Eastern European companies) pronounce it 'Peter'. Maybe they are being kind to me though.

"THAT BOY'S GOT A STEEL SKULL!"

Trevor Morley did.

Should be a like a long French é according to the wiki pronunciation key.

So basically, yes sounds like peter

[Wax Jacket]

more like Pater

[Wax Jacket]

anyway I wouldn't stress about foreign pronunciations, other countries get ours wrong too

oh, and this isn't football-related, but you know someone's thick when they mispronounce pronunciation

[Royal Rother]

So and so has won this game single-handedly...

"He can score goals at this level"

[Croydon Royal]

Footballers called "Nicky". Nobody in the real world is called Nicky. If you're a grown man named Nicholas you shorten it to Nick. Nicky is for gays and girls (copyright Andy Gray).

Yet everyone in football called Nicholas seems to use Nicky - Forster, Shorey, Maynard, Law, Butt, Hammond, Weaver, Hunt, Bailey, Summerbee.

Almost as bad as a grown man using Robbie.

[Wax Jacket]

not as bad as the Scottish rugby player Nikki Walker

Slide rule pass always gets foaming at the mouth.

To be fair, for me, it's a stonewall nailed-on pen all day long.

5 for the price of one.

''Everyone in the ground has seen that, except the referee''

Erm, no they haven't. It is physically impossible for various people looking at something from different angles to get a clear look at said incident.

And my particular favourite : "giving 110%"

Can someone with more intelligence than me (and there's a fair few of you out there) how anyone can give more than their maximum to ANY activity ?
