Time for one of the great jokes of all time.

What do you call a Frenchman wearing sandals?

Phillipe Flop!

Or the German barber, Herr Kutz. Or the Scottish Jewish preacher, Rabbi Burns, or the Spanish flasher, Signor Bitz, or the gay Irish couple, Patrick Fitzmichael and Michael Fitzpatrick.

I’ll get me coat.

Frappez la barre.

I quite like the aphoristic quality of hoodoo35's comment below. It could have easily been made by the French absurdist philosopher Albert Camus, himself once an aspiring goalkeeper, and who famously said, 'Everything I know most surely about morality and duty, I owe to football'.

No. Whoever has played football knows very well that the one who touches the post is unlucky, not clumsy

Not very NSC though, is it?

no, it's french for podded peas

I only found out a few months ago that the French for mangetout is pois gourmand - that came as a big surprise to me

Looks like the French like NSC style comments as well. Plus ça change

If you play the game, rather than unlucky one could say clumsy or ineffective maybe?

It produces play but it takes a little stability. But Potter too often changes players from one game to another.

I know some pseudo football connoisseurs who prefer that their team play well but that it goes down ... Let the coach die with his ideas...

Scarily alike. All that’s missing is a good old “Le Porter éliminé”.
