When managers or players say "Football Club" at the end of the team name.

"I'm happy I signed for X Football Club"

"This isn't the standard we expect at X Football Club"

Anyone watching a programme or interview involving football is well aware the person is talking about a football club.

They are probably just trying to distance themselves from the holding company that owns the club...

Owen Coyle used to get on my nerves with this, especially when he full-named "Bolton Wanderers Football Club"

Any Reporting Scotland 'exclusive investigation' report by Mark Daly who speaks as if he's addressing a group of nursery children.

Example:  https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-scotland-15400694/craig-whyte-allegations-of-criminality-uncovered

More so if it's being used as the headline story.

Scottish men wearing kilts on holiday. Double cringe points if they claim that they got their hole because of it.

Kilt on holiday, matched with a Cellic/Rangurs top.

Think it's because of his accent that he pronounces every word

When someone writes 'lol'. Abysmal behaviour.

Also this 'Green and Gray' patter. Am I missing something or are Sevco fans really trying to wind up Celtic fans by saying the hoops on their top are not white but gray?

I think the implication is that they don't wash. Amazing stuff.

Still not quite as cringeworthy as using the phrase 'green yins' as rhyming slang for '******s', then feigning innocence.
