In the world of football, what makes you CRINGE?

[Lady Whistledown]

Mark Lawrenson trying to be funny on MOTD.

All of:
-"Your support is ****ing shit"
-"We forgot that you were here"
-"Worst support we've ever seen"
-"X is a shithole, I wanna go home".
-"We pay your benefits"
-"Wanker! Wanker! Wanker!" As sung at referees.

And it's not one that I've heard is sing particularly but I know other clubs do:

-"Shit refs, we only get shit refs".

 

[Lady Whistledown]

That baby rocking goal celebration, as well as Robbie Keane's pathetic little forward roll & gun signal when he scores.

Over excitable matchday announcers who shout things like: "LETS MAKE SOME NOOOOOIIIIIIIISE!"

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Let's hear it for the GOLDEN BOYYYYYYYYS.....!

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Where angry grown men in the crowd do that "Hold me back lads, hold me back" thing, as though the only thing stopping them from leaving a taunting opposition player in a crumpled, broken heap of pain is...er...one lady steward sat on the track in front of them.

 

[The Truth]

Grown men who talk football like it's politics.

- Those deadline day pricks who stand behind a reporter on Sky Sports News going "wwweeeaarraaeeaaaaaaaarrrrrgghbabrraraaaaararararrrrll" Twats.

- Jim White on Sky Sports News Deadline Day(TM) wearing his stupid yellow tie.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Jamie Redknapp's use of the word "literally".

 

[SB005]

Goal music

People getting really upset or excited when 'their' team scores or loses....despite having never been to Manchester, Liverpool etc

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Reading is by far the worst example of this. Their announcer actually has a POEM that includes a number of lines and lasts about 15 seconds. All I can remember is it ends with "SO MAKE SOME NOISE FOR THE BOYS", but it is truly appalling throughout.

More CRINGE than the Vicarage Road, GOOOOOOOLDEN BOYYYYYYYYS one? I'm not having that!

 

[TWOCHOICEStom]

Fans continuing to celebrate an offside goal 15 seconds after the whistle has gone and the players have stopped celebrating.

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

Grown men who talk football like it's politics.

Grown men who talk politics like it's football.

 

[The Truth]

Grown men who talk politics like it's football.

I take it you find Football a very confusing subject then?

 

[Puppet Master]

The Wailll-bi-yawn chant.

Sloop John B chants.

Fans singing chants too fast ( you don't have to clap along to EVERY song you know?)

Fans behind the goal going "WAYYYY!" every time an opposition player narrowly fires over. Never used to happen, please let it die now.

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

Fans behind the goal going "WAYYYY!" every time an opposition player narrowly fires over. Never used to happen, please let it die now.

especially when it's an absolutely brilliant effort from 30 yards out that narrowly misses

 

[Spun Cuppa]

Don't know if it's been done, but talk of football, association not gridiron, players being in the quarterback role What, as in take the ball into their hands from a 'snap', drop into the pocket and either throw it to a team mate who catches it, or carry the ball forward, again in hand It's bollocks of the highest (or lowest) order...

 

[Harry H]

Where's your famous atmosphere!

 

[Soul Finger]

'Whoooooooooooooooooooooo?'

That massively gets on my tits.

When, at the semi-final stage of a competition, the two 'biggest' teams left in the competition are drawn together and the reporter (not necessarily Alan Green) states something along the lines of 'of course all the neutrals would have preferred if xxxxxx and xxxxxx had been kept apart' as if everybody who follows football believes that only those with the most money are a) deserving of winning trophies and b) of providing an entertaining football match.
