Merse said we’d be bottom half without Kane, then said Arsenal would destroy us. It’s all hyperbole. Build them up, knock them down. Darren Bent and Paul Merson are not the finest football minds the country has ever seen tbf Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomYam Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 I hate that football commentators don't know the difference between 'just' and 'just about'. Eg 'the ball just about crept over the line'. For those that have been informed by football English, 'just about' is negative (ie. the ball almost crossed the line, but did not) while 'just' is positive (ie. the ball crossed the line, but almost didn't). As far as I know, only football commentators fail to see the distinction between these terms - in fact the incorrect use of 'just about' is often ised several times in one match. Grrrrr.

I never knew that. I thought 'just about' implied a degree of uncertainty. Like I'd say "oh I think I just about made it on time", meaning I think I just made it, but it was close, I can't be 100%.

In the example I gave, the ball 'just about' crossing the goal line would lead to VAR disallowing a goal. You 'just about' making it out for the start of the second half should lead to an enforced forfeiture of your season ticket. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 Little one from yesterday, but Emerson got booked for waving an imaginary card at the ref for Bruno's first yellow, for the second foul, two or three West Ham went up to the ref asking the question.

Usually just the one leg but Antonio did a doubler when he gave a foul and got set for the free kick.
