All he needs to know is "fookin' avvit!!" for every time he launches the ball 80 yards away from our box. That'll do for me.

I think "AWAY!!" is universal in footballing language so he should be ok when he's defending in our box.

I've always wondered about that. If the keeper doesn't shout it do they all forget why they are there and stop for a *** break?

In my experience screaming away at someone who is on the ball in your own box is similar to that of the "MAN ON" shriek which puts more stress on the player than if nothing is said!

Another cliche is someone shouting away as soon as a corner is kicked whilst you are defending, and the ball is in mid-flight, like ok will do mate.

Similarly, screaming "Catch it!" at the hapless fielder in the path of a speeding cricket ball is not the best support for your team mate, but everybody seems to do it.

I can't remember who it was (maybe Ivan Golac, when he played for us), but I recall a foreign player who, during an interview revealed that he had been puzzled by the shout of "Welly it", when being told to clear the ball.
Perhaps they should sit Caceres down with a variety of cue cards, to include the most used idioms, to eliminate confusion.

It doesn't seem that long ago that the £35 folded inside a small brown envelope which I received for a week's work at the BAT plant in Shirley seemed like a decent sum.

You were lucky. I used to earn £1 18/- 6d per week when I first started work. 1/-3d an hour. That is 5/- for four hours work which in your money is 25 pence. You lads today don't know you are born. You have all been spoiled something rotten.

Quick someone post the 4 Yorkshiremen sketch before another thread descends into old buggers moaning about how tough their life was.

Criminal exploitation. This was last week, I take it?

Oh God. I see we've got a new piece of eye candy for the women on here. It's why I don't post a picture of myself. I couldn't stand the thought of being exploited by the post-feminist body worshippers.

Anyway, are we nearly there yet? Glad to see that, despite rumours to the contrary, he does appear to have the requisite number of legs. Makes him a good signing in the current climate.

This is sexist. Some of us men may find you attractive too.
