Your most hated footballing comment

Postby MoodyBluebird » Fri Dec 15, 2017 3:26 pm

Without a doubt the one comment from rival fans or pundits guaranteed to start a flow of expletives or an uncontrolled assault on the telly is, "how many of their players would get in our team ?" I hate it with a passion !

I was reminded of this the other night when one of our posters kindly attached a very readable selection of rival fans comments following the Reading game. Most were very balanced and quite entertaining until a Derby numpty ruined my night by saying "how many of their players etc, etc" Grrrrr!!

It all began in the summer of 2006 when the golden generation of English footballers fluffed their lines once again in predictable fashion, much to the amazement of the English media who actually expected them to win the World Cup. Step forward Mr Alan Shearer, the the new pundit on the block. Yes you've guessed the immortal words he used next while referencing the teams still remaining in the competition. I nearly choked on my dinner as I was contemplating Pirlo, Zidane and many, many other truly great players who apparently would have struggled to break into this amazing England team. To be fair to Shearer, he no longer sees English football through rose-tinted specs and his views are slightly more palatable than during his early days as a pundit.

However, as you can tell it doesn't take much to bring it all back up again.

I'm sure I'm not alone in having a pet hate comment that starts the blood boiling.

Political talk from managers.

They all seem to praise their next components like "They are a difficult team to play against" instead of coming out with comments like "We should be able ot stick 6 pass them" or "I think we are going to get stuffed".

When they say - your man utds or your Liverpools


For example - man city are so strong in midfield they are the most exciting team to watch, when you have your sterlings and your silvas.
Makes no sense.



Oh and - he's a top top player.

The most used one on here is "the ref cost us the game" or something similar. Reading some comments on this forum and you would think we are Barcelona not Cardiff. We never lose because we played crap, we lose because of the ref and worse still, we lost in front of just 15k people when a massive club like us should have 30k a week no problem. ;)

On a lighter note, I used to enjoy Ron Atkinson's comments for their sheer absurdity and comedy value....hit it to the back stick....get up a head of steam...and the never to be forgotten corridor of uncertainty !

The corridor of uncertainty is a cricket comment coined by Geoffrey Boycott.

Not a hated comment but one I've always found amusing is:

"he's on his favourite left foot"

As if he has more than one left foot to choose from. :lol:

That would make sense.

I think a lot of commentators have said "favourite" though.

Also a ball crossed between the goalkeeper and the retreating last defender, the "corridor" comment was indeed uttered by Mr A in one of his memorable stints as a co-commentator.

:laughing6: He's so obvious and still has a few more multis on here. Why on earth he wants to pretend to be a Villa fan on here is proof he's a hat short of a Christmas Cracker.

He's been on here for years and displays all the signs of having a condition known as NPD (Narcissistic Personality Disorder). I won't list the signs & symptoms as their lengthy but here's a link that describes NPD : https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narciss ... y_disorder

Ye I've met a few of them don't worry. They more often than not struggle to hold down any real relationships/friendships because they are so unbareable to be around.

Back when I was gracing the pitches on a Sunday morning, the phrase I hated most was “sub ref”as it normally meant I was having an earlier shower than anticipated.

I always found “square ball” a bit odd, as I did people shouting “second and third ball” on every single goal kick.

As a centre back with limited ability, my favourite was “put the c*** in the crowd” which was more for comedy value as there’d be about five spectators at most. Oh, and let’s not forget the classic Sunday league “over me” battle cry whilst attempting to header the ball.

P.S. Bring your blue scarfs today and don’t be shy with the singing. :bluescarf:

Seriously mate - You need to take a long hard look at yourself if you think that I am someone else pretending to be a Villa fan. It must be so blatantly obvious to anyone with half a brain that I am a Villa fan. That is all I usually post in connection with. I'd look a bit closer to home for "conditions" if I were you. :lol:

Using the word simulation when a player takes a dive. Its almost gives it some sort of respectability. Call it what it is - CHEATING.
