Xela Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 A thread for things that don't warrant their own thread. - What is with players and that stupid celebration most do, when they they do a jump slide on their knees. I always wince, as my knees constantly ache! - I can't be the only one who hates South American commentators reactions when they announce a goal - "Gooooooooaaaaaaaaallllll" **** off pal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree on the knee slide would never risk it myself. The South American commentators are great though love their over the top musings.

MWARLEY2 Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 Those tnucs on talksport who try and create arguments by saying one club is bigger than the other. For the record. I am a fanatic. Manure Arsenal and Liverpool are the only ones bigger. And these knobheads who want to still have their big six so that their program plans are easier. So call them the traditional big 6 or the big 6 plus Newcastle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it wasn’t for Villa, I’d have given up years ago. Everything is Villa centric, I can’t tell you who won the Premier league in our three championship years. I can have a good guess, but I’m not certain. Having said that, I like football in that if Man Utd are playing Liverpool, one of those is going to be unhappy at the end of the game. Probably Man Utd at the moment. I estimate around 90% of my enjoyment of football outside of Villa is rooted in schadenfreude. I can appreciate a great goal but I’m just as appreciative of the anger and annoyance it causes for the conceding team. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think of that every time I see a footballer knee slide. Idiots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, count me in with the 'no interest if it doesn't involve Villa' brigade. I have very little knowledge of, or interest in, other teams. Very much related to that... fantasy football (or whatever it's called these days). I have a mate who's always banging on about who he's got in his team, who he made captain, etc. He devotes hours to it every week, and keeps trying to get me to join. I've told him umpteen times I wouldn't know where to begin, and I'd rather watch paint dry. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones at work used to be fun, it added a little edge to the office dynamic. I have done the big premier league one that seemingly everyone does but stopped because 1 I’m not very good at it. 2 I like pun team names and I became frustrated that the character limit prevented me from calling my team “In Every Dream Team a Hartache”. The world’s loss. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HongKongVillan Posted November 20, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted November 20, 2023 Fat obese Newcastle fans who go shirtless in matches, and somehow they are always being praised by pundits, for being 'passionate', 'real fans'. what are you praising them for, being fat and ugly and probably using our tax money to fund his obese life style?

Mark Albrighton Posted November 20, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted November 20, 2023 More just a trip down memory lane, but…football clubs reaching the FA cup final, of course that means we have to release a song and take on the top 40. It’s just, that was the done thing. Until it very much wasn’t. It seems weird that was just part of it. Looking at Wikipedia, the most notable recent song is (apparently) Leeds United reached number ten in 2010 with a new version of “Leeds Leeds Leeds”. Seemingly released following promotion from League One. Since then, in October 2020, Everton rereleased their 1984 cup final song “Spirit of the Blues” seemingly off the back of winning their opening four games of the season. They then won one of their following seven. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Xela Posted November 20, 2023 Author Popular Post Share Posted November 20, 2023 I remember when the FA Cup meant something. A joyous day, even if your team wasn't playing in it. 3pm Saturday kick-off. Watch the build up on Grandstand from 12:15pm... aerial shots from a helicopter of the coaches arriving etc. Can't remember the last time I watched the final. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, I could probably name their starting line up from 1988/89 season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
