New phrases I HATE in Football

[ToneLoc]

Don't even go there, I live in the states and the commentators here use terminology that makes me puke, soccer instead of football, PK instead of penalty, overtime instead of extra time the list go on and on and on

"Don't go there" makes my teeth grind I have to say

Sorry mate . You do live in the U.S to though so it's an easy enough mistake to make !!

[ToneLoc]

"Franchise" makes me fucking puke !!

[ToneLoc]

"Kick on"......... grrrrrr !!

[ToneLoc]

Set-up has become "assist"

How long now until defence become "de-fence"?
and attack becomes "off-ence"?

Basically it's all thanks to our "blow job a yank" media in this country!

I have no problems with our American cousins across the pond...... it's just how THEY talk. It's our yank-obsessed media that I want to line up and shoot !!

Can anyone define what makes a world class footballer?

Americans

Goal Tender - This. This is the WORST of all of their collective commentating nincompoopery.
Penalty Box - Sigh
Ejected..Oh please..FUCK OFF! He was sent off ffs..It's not difficult.
Cleats...They're fucking STUDS!!
He hit the frame - No. He hit the post or the crossbar.
Uniform - No, no, no, no, NO!
And it's a football PITCH not a fucking field, ya agricultural dingleberries!

There are probably more but I'm too angry now...Fuck 'em.

And that reminds me, what the fuck ever happened to the good old fashioned 1 to 11 on the back of a players shirt. I hate all this American shit. And while watching an mls game the other night one player needed to change his cleats!!!! Absolute cunt, he should have been strangled with his headphones and set on fire, the bastard.

The Welsh team in one of the Euro games actually had 1 to 11 on the pitch at the same time!
