Just for fun. A few words that sometimes don't make sense.... Stand ......most people sit. Daisy cutter..don't see many daisies on pro football pitches. Penalty spot...not always where the foul occurred.
What else can you think of? John. |

Hit the woodwork - it’s made of metal
Bicycle kick - doesn’t resemble a bicycle at all
He’s put through his own net - through it? How hard did he hit it?

Back of the net, no its not, its the front of the net.
Guiding the ball out, its fookin obstruction.

Hoof ball - no ungulates involved at all.
Put into row z - not many stadiums are that big.
Cross - cum - shot - best leave that one there!!!

This is becoming a cricket score:- it’s 7-0 not 233/5.
He knows where the goal is:- I think that everyone in the ground can see two posts, a crossbar and net attached to it.
Today’s game has become a massive six-pointer:- You get 3 points for a win, right?
Scissor kick:- Most refs would deem a pair of scissors as a dangerous weapon on the pitch. Doesn’t look like a scissor action anyway.

"You couldn't write the script" when a player scores against his former side in an FA Cup tie.
I'm sure if you made a few calls to Hollywood, they'd find a scriptwriter capable of coming up with that one!

Lost the dressing room - unlikely unless the stadium is a Kafkaesque labyrinth.
Turned on a sixpence - not possible since February 1971 and improbable before then.
Midfield general - HM forces teams only.

Man on the post - precarious and ineffective defensive position.

"And they don't want to concede a goal before half-time"
So they might be happier to concede one in the second half - Right?

To "nutmeg" an opposing player. Since when do footballers carry a spice rack?
Players who start every sentence in an interview with the words "to be fair" when they are rarely blond.

What else can you think of? John. We didn't win the second balls. I thought there was only one? |

"2-0 is the worst scoreline in football".
Hhhhmmm I'm pretty sure being 2-0 ahead is better than losing 7-0.

To square the ball - doesn’t make a lot of sense if you think about it. A ball is round, and a square is a 2D shape. All you’re doing by ‘squaring’ it is playing it in a straight perpendicular line.
Champions League - half the teams in it aren’t champions, and it isn’t a league either.
“You’re only as good as your last result” - well, why bother with the league table at all then? We can just decide after every set of fixtures who the best teams are!

"Away goals count double."
Had one mate who genuinely thought if you lost 4-3 you'd actually won 6-4!

Alan Shearer. He shouldn't have missed that. Not everyone has scored 280 Premiership goals.
