Things in football that shouldn't piss you off but do

Post by Cheik the room »

1) Players wearing gloves - whatever the weather.

2) Fans leaving in the 93rd minute instead of waiting 30 more seconds for full time.

3) Every player shaking hands with each other before the game.

4) Neutrals, and even more so pundits, referring to Man U or Man City as "United" or "City".

1. White boots.
2. Booing an opposition substitute coming on, especially when it's a youngster making their debut or something.
3. English media regarding English players.
4. How any former player can automatically be an analyst.
5. Defenders getting away with manhandling and wrestling moves in the box.
6. Music after goals.

1.) But they look so cool...and bicycle shorts under the real shorts, or long-sleeve shirts, or those thermal tops under a real shirt...has anyone ever worm Lycra long-johns? or a Lycra onesies <laugh> <laugh> <laugh>

2.) If you don't want to be there then don't buy a season ticket...plenty of people want to be there for real.

3.) i like that. respect. brings an emotional element to the game. eye each other up like boxers.

4.) i like neutrals (helps stop the violence) but hate "pundits, referring to Man U or Man City as "United" or "City". " which city? there are 999?

MY OWN: people referring to the football world cup as THE world cup. so bloody arrogant and dismissive of every other sport in the world. FIFA, commentators that know less than the fans (all of them??), ...there are more...

The fact that we play adverts rather than music on our PA system despite the fact about a third of the ground can't see the s***ty telly.
