If you use the term "tippy-tappy"...

[jcdenton08]

Some of the worst translated Danish I've ever seen. I said I wanted to SAVE overuse of Google Translate.

Well, technically if I play a ball to you - or several balls over the course of a game - you'd describe my passes to you as my 'balls'. But I think we're getting sidetracked..

Oh i see , balls then the Double entendres effect meaning testicles, !
What has that to do with tippy tappy football ?

 

[Woodchip]

Tippy Tappy soccerball FTW, dude.

Sent by the power of squirrel poo

If other clubs heard us describing our style as 'tippy tappy' they'd have a field day, too.

What the f*** are you on about, assume your trying to show off you can read Spanish i suppose ? and waiting for one of us to ask for a translation ?

Actually ... anyone with a basic knowledge of any southern European language (or even French) should have not much difficulty in working out the nuances of the definition that is, after all, probably best expressed in the language that gave us the expression. As it happens, I don't speak Spanish, but I can follow the text fairly easily.

The Danish, btw, is just a piss take. Sorry.

Did you need me to explain before you got that? I was obviously too subtle..

 

[cannedheat]

tiki-taka if your Spanish, but we are English so it is tippy tappy.

This thread is cack, I've never used the term myself but really...... Who gives a f##k ?

Indeed.

There are probably coaching handbooks that advise teams how to deal with tiki-taka football. I'd rather have our opponents turn up without a clue about how we play or what they can do about it.

You should be SHOT.

The phrase is "tiki-taka".

This is my number one completely irrationally infuriatingly irritating mistake.

"Tiki-taka ( commonly spelled tiqui-taca in Spanish; Spanish pronunciation: [ˈtiki ˈtaka] ) is a style of play in association football, characterised by metronomic short passing and movement, working the ball through various channels, and maintaining possession. The style is primarily associated with La Liga club FC Barcelona and the Spanish national team under managers Luis Aragonés and Vicente del Bosque. It is an evolution of the Total Football tactics deployed by teams like FC Barcelona and Ajax in the past."

Please never in real-life describe Albion's football style as "tippy-tappy" it makes us sound like a bunch of benders - cheers!

I didn't, just an excuse to post using the word testicles in it.

Yeah good point, let's put the word out that we play the long ball a lot, route one stuff lol

Irrational phobias can be dealt with in a number of ways.

People with a spider phobia can be gradually and successfully introduced the concept of touching them without fear.

Another method is to confront your fear directly although the thought of jumping out of a plane for someone with a fear of heights may be far too much to contemplate for the sufferer and the person administering the cure.

However, your fear is a contemptuously trivial obsession and deserves immediate treatment from as many NSC members who feel capable of administering the medicine.

In your informed opinion you will be no doubt aware that an irrational anger (e.g. 'hating Palace' as a so-called true Albion fan would say they do) is different to a 'phobia'.

Yes. I wish that very much. On both counts.

Several NSCers on the Stellas tonight I see.
