Arch Stanton Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Minor, in the scheme of things but commentators refusal to treat players with monosyllabic surnames the same as everyone else. Their full names are always used...Solly Mutch. Matty Cash, Dan (or Daniel) James. The one that used to rip my knitting was Demba Ba...every fucking time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Tout P'ti FC Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Heard towards end of semi final today. Linesman shouting "don't foul, don't foul" as the Hearts player was shielding the ball in the corner to run down time. Shut up. If they foul, wave your wee flag, if they don't foul, carry on. You are an observer, so observe. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rbon Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 It's just the wee petty things that shouldn't really piss me off like boys taking a thrown about 10 yards away from where the ball actually went out of play. As i said petty and should likely not piss me off lol. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly the last few days I completely forgot I supported a club team at all. Probably for the best tbf. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A goalkeeper kicking his heels on the post at a goal kick, or a completely half hearted jog off the park is outstanding behaviour. All forms of complete shitehousery should be encouraged imo. It brightens up a close defeat for me, you are a bit angry at what you are witnessing (mostly but not always) then the shithousing starts, quickly followed by guys absolutely losing their mind all around you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah add me to the list of people this annoys. My bug bear was always Troy Deeney, for years I thought Watford had some italian guy Troidini up front assumed a first name like Gianluca etc Imagine my disappointment when I seen him! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zapp Brannigan Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Players that grab the ball while falling after being fouled to try manipulate the referee. Whether it's a foul or not, keep your hands off the ball and let the ref decide. If I was a ref, I'd probably give the free kick the other way for handball just make that point 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The officials are part of a game like the players are. I'd rather see a ref tell a defender not to pull someone's shirt than just give a penalty. If the defender remains stupid enough to do so after a warning, then fair enough give the penalty. Officials are a huge part of how enjoyable a game is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gus Setsniffer Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 stats, and they are just getting more and more ridiculous The Champions League, its a great competition, as was the European Cup, but its still nothing more than an Elite Level FA or Scottish Cup and the hype has got so bad, we get shite like ''he's going to want champions league football, so that rules out a move to blah blah blah'' The Ballon D'Or, just nonsense The word ''Dinosaur'' Goalkeepers of the past being shite because of youtube clips 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also this there was contact he's entitled to go down thing. No you're not it's called simulation. Give the foul AND book the player for diving. I'd be a moaning asshole of a ref people trying to con me all the time would make my head go. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
