"Its just passing for passings sake"

[saj]

"Don't like it up 'em"

"But how would they manage a cold, wet night at Stoke"

That is a ******* of cliche's - I hate it. I'm sure a cold night in Antarctica, Russia, Scotland or ****ing anywhere would be far worse than in Stoke

'Our season starts here'.

[saj]

"If in doubt, Kick it into row z"

You ******* commentator/co-commentator - do you know if there is a Row Z? Is there such a thing? Or are you just being nob. I hate you

[saj]

'Our season starts here'.

Whoever made that one up deserves to die. The season starts in August - not March.

Five year plan
There's always next season/year

'Just off side'- you re either onside or offside.

Spurs transfer policy.

I believe the following events occur in each transfer window at Spurs:

"Is he linked with Liverpool? Yes. Nice one: Let's sign him"

or

"****, our scouts are lazy *******s. Who should we sign? I know, lets see which players are linked with Liverpool and sign them - job done"

The one time we managed to beat Spurs to a player, we ended up with a big lump: Andy Carroll. If only they had operated this recruitment policy in summer 2011 - we possibly would not have ended up Adam, Downing and Henderson.

'Just off side'- you re either onside or offside.

I'm disputing this one.

Of course you can be just onside/just offside. Similarly you can have a shot that's gone just wide.

You can also drive a car just under the speed limit and post on a forum just enough so that people recognise your username.
