I always laugh at that. Clueless twats.

radio commentary is about putting pictures into heads. nowt wrong with the phrase.

1. Off the up right.

it's "upright", not "up right". they've got around 100 minutes to fill. how many times do you want them to use goal, post, bar, woodwork, etc?

 

[HHH]

[Roary's Smelly Head]

Attack is the best form of defence

No it's not - good defending is the best form of defence

 

[King Curtis]

Bring our best game to the table.

He's thrown his hat in the ring.

We'll dust ourselves down and come back next week.

 

[Ernie Shackleton]

There's been a goal at [insert stadium name here], but which way has it gone?

Just tell me the ****ing score you utter, utter ****. This is not a game you know.

I get that that's the logic, but they overdo it so that 'upright', 'campaign' and the like are used much more often than the real word.

One of the most irritating on this board is 'sussed out'. As if a player or formation only works until the opposition know about it.

 

[Party Hull!]

"He's hit the woodwork".

It's clearly made out of metal.

Perhaps I don't hear that many commentators these days, but I can only think of John Helm who uses upright.

In fact, I don't recall him ever using 'post'.

I hate: "Worldy" and "Football Hipster"

 

[Bigelow]

This isn't a phrase but a generic league one or two footballer with arm sleeve tattoos with shaved hair at the sides and long on the top.

No problems with tattoos.

And now David Burns has an interview with Assem Allam..

Football Hipster at least means something.
