'There, or thereabouts'

[madras]

Also, when did they start saying 'simulation'? f***ing ridiculous.

 

'I thought the missus had forgotten my birthday, but it was just simulation.'

hang on....i thought the missus had missed my birthday, but it was just a dive ?

[spizz energi]

"Bread & butter".

 

That was a bread and butter parking maneuver.

[Ronaldo]

"Bite his nose off, Jimmy"

 

never heard that one in a non-footballing context

[Cheshire Mag]

"for the chop" is one ive never heard outside of football.

[trotheed]

'Defence is at sixes and sevens' 

 

Never heard that except in that context.

[madras]

'Defence is at sixes and sevens' 

 

Never heard that except in that context.

"i thought she was on the pill, she thought i'd had the snip, we were all at sixes and sevens"

[Lenny]

I've heard that used by plenty of non-footballing people

 

Aye, well you've fucking heard everything.

 

Actually Lol'd

[jong24]

Hmmm, interesting ……… very interesting!

 

(followed by) ..."Look at his face, just look at his face"

'Nullify'.

 

'My raging horn was somewhat nullified by Janet's 9" strap-on.'

 

 

 

"levelled"

 

 

 

"i was on holiday. jimmy shagged three birds but i levelled on the flight home with a skank from byker"

 

[SteveMc]

On his day, that player is unplayable.

 

..when the transfer window slams shut. (I f***ing loathe that saying)

 

When people call youngish footballers, like 23-25 year olds 'lads' even though they're younger than the player they're describing. 'I think the lad did well' etc.

 

 

 

 

 

 

In a similar vein I always say 'go on Son' to players less than 10 years my junior

I'm enjoying this thread like.

 

 

Keefaz, you're a funny bloke!

[Guest BooBoo]

'leapt like a salmon.'

[Thespence]

'there or thereabouts' is used quite freqently in the army, in my experience

 

 

That must be why fuckers are always getting killed, as 'there or thereabouts' is a risky phrase to use in a war zone.

 

[Incognito]

I got up early doors today but at the end of the day,I shall be back in bed again.

[Guest jimmyc84]

"war chest"

 

blooming daft term.

Keefaz, going on this thread, you've not heard many people speak mate. Guile and Nullify? They're just words

[Doug]

The plurals in football make me laugh.

When you come up against your Rooneys and Gerrards, who play for the likes of your ManUtds and Liverpools of this world.

Why do they do that in football?

[Liam Liam Liam O]

Really? in what context?

 

Spent 13 years in the army and I cant recall anyone coming up with that one like?

 

 

We need to drop the bomb there. Well, there or there abouts.

[Carlito]

My bounce-back-ability kept me going all night 

 

[bowlingcrofty]

Rescinded - never heard that word anywhere else.

 

Warchest - wtf is that all about.

 

Textbook - as in 'that was a textbook finish'. The only person I've seen use that in seriousness is Alan Partridge.

 

Piledriver - sounds like some sort of extremely painful issue in the back passage...

 

Dugout

 

Gone to ground - wtf, he dived or he was tripped, he didn't 'go to ground'.

 

I blame Sky commentators for most of this shite.

Keefaz, going on this thread, you've not heard many people speak mate. Guile and Nullify? They're just words

 

Howay, 'guile' is probably used at least once every televised match, but outside of football, you'll probably hear it about once per year.

[Stu]

gold standard
