I'll start off with a couple of the most obvious.

post match interview - "...at the end of the day"

fan at the ref/linesman "should've gone to specsavers!"

manager on a bad run after a game - "sometimes you need a bit of luck and we didn't get that today" (Malpas said this - don't treat it like it's a game of chance, change the things you can change and take responsibility you knob!!")

"He gave 110%". It's not fucking possible to give more than 100% you moronic idiots.

"He's got a good touch for a big lad".

Anything David Pleat's ever said.

"It's a game of 2 halves."

"We/they didn't even turn up today."

"He knows where the goal is."

"If you don't buy a ticket you don't win the raffle"


I heard an interesting variation last weekend at maidenhead - "If you don't buy a ticket you don't win the tombola"


I'm going to look to use this phrase more often, to envigorate the tired cliche Smiley

"If you don't shoot, you don't score." Is another variation on the theme.

We'll put this defeat behind us and move on.
The next goal is crucial.

Don't portsmouth have their number 12 shirt in their squad as "the fans" or something equally gay. Things were more normal when their fans wore butchers aprons complete with blood and doc martens and kicked the shit out of anything in front of them. A bunch of fucking Premiership gayers now.
