1 - Overuse of the word "obviously" - especially in interviews.

2 - Ridiculous nicknames - lamps, peaks, etc

Players who start interviews by saying: "Yeah, no, yeah...."

Hospital ball I received many of them in my carreer at Town, it usally is when your team mate gets rid of the ball under pressure and you end up being the receiver.
Not very nice I can tell you.

when the ball is on the ground everybody is the same size its what you do with the ball that matters m/http/thisis.co.uk/274236/signature/gtfc-soldier-aphanfc

Players who say "you know" at the beginning and end of every sentence.

Or say "erm" every second word.

Great grasp of the English language has your average footballer.

The worst ever football cliche has to be "He didn't get enough purchase on the ball". WTF does THAT actually mean. Did the player attempt to gain entry to the game by offering to pay with a ball instead of some of our English pounds? A particular favourite of the late Brian(?) Moore. (One time Gillingham fan) if I recall.


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

When teams are on the attack and their crossing it into the box "Put the kitchen sink in their" I think the saying is. WTF does that mean?

It is a bit like watching Dad's Army in places: dead... dead... still alive... should be dead by now...
