Thought I'd start a funnies thread on things people say, here's what inspired it: Stuart Pearce after last night's Cup game on selecting young players ... "the likes of Osborne and Paterson and Grant, to name but a couple, took their opportunity well" Erm ... 1 Osborne ... 2 Paterson ... 3 Grant ... Stu, how many is a couple again?

Harry Kane speaking ahead of the League Cup game with Forest last night: "on Wednesday against Forest in the Cup, so our minds are focused on that and hopefully we can get the three points"
I chuckled at the Pearce quote last night. I liked Grayson talking about billy painter's 'rich vein of form' the week after he'd finally scored his first leeds goal after however many months. Hey, they didn't make it as footballers because of their intellects.
There have been some crackers over the years Ian Rush on playing for Juventus "It was like living in a different country" Ruud Gullit "We must of had 99% of the match, it was the other 3% that cost us" "For those of you watching in black and white, Spurs are in the all-yellow strip." - JOHN MOTSON "I would not be bothered if we lost every game as long as we won the league." - MARK VIDUKA "I'd like to play for an Italian club, like Barcelona." - MARK DRAPER But Ron Atkinson was the best "He dribbles a lot and the opposition don't like it - you can see it all over their faces." "Well Clive, its all about the 2 "M's" - Movement and Positioning" "I'm going to make a prediction - it could go either way." "I never comment on referees and I'm not going to break the habit of a lifetime for that prat." "I would not say he [David Ginola] is the best left winger in the Premiership, but there are none better."
The best one I saw was yesterday on that early evening Pointless thing. A thick blond tart was struggling to answer and came out with " it just came in my mouth ....." her boyfriend choked and went red, the audience gasped and the blonde just said awe you know what I meant stop it .....
There was a story yesterday of a Asian fella who tried to get off a speeding ticket by insisting it was his mother driving instead of himself, the court produced a picture of a image taken of the car speeding in which the prosecution said "you can see clearly from this picture that the driver had facial hair", the accused "as i said it was my mother driving"
