The words you hate in football

[Kaz]

I hate it when commentators and journalists do the stupid plural thing:

eg. "The Webckes and the Lockyers and the Hunts"

How many Webckes are there?! :evil:

Well Webcke has a brother so has Lockyer & Hunt. :lol:

I can't stand geniused commentators who have no grasp of the English language when it's the most important part of their job. For example "I can't believe what that player just done" or "He come up quickly out of the line" are two common ones. Daley in particular is a shocker, I always think I'm listening to a blind illiterate fool who if it wasn't for footy, his only hope would be to become a road worker.

 

[Mark Rudd]

Flying under the radar



Ok, its not used in football but I HATE this saying. Its mega dumb.

 

[DIEHARD]

The phrase "copy book".

After player X takes someones head off ...

"It's not his go usally" .. :roll:

"It's not his go usally" .. :roll:

I don't see how that makes sense - a lot of players are generally good sports who either have a short brain explosion, or they go in badly. You saying that implies that everyone who makes a high tackle or other foul play is a thug and deserves to be sent from the field. Make a note, mate, we all make mistakes.

On the actual topic, a word in footy I hate is 'ruck' - 1 it sounds too much like 'f**k', and two, it's a really old term that has never really been explained, it's just a word that is always used.

 

[Pantherjim.]

For me it's "Loose head and feed"

- I mean, are we packing a scrum or filling a bong??!!

Pantherjim.

 

[wogdog]

every time a player gets asked on his performance after the game they always say "full credit to the boys" every time

 

[Dr Crane]

"When you've got a big bloke inside of you, you tend to slide a little bit" :lol:

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

[pennywisealfie]

"Go the Blues"

whats with that? you never hear a queenslander say go the maroons, coz we have pride in our state. you only ever hear a nsw dude say go the blues coz they only love there footy team.

"Newcastle Knights"

unless the word "lost" is in the same sentence.

"Phil Gould"
