“At this football club …”

Yes, we’re aware that you’re not talking from a tennis club, a sailing club or a golf club. The word ‘football’ is superfluous corporate speak.

Used by defenders of a manager as a way to shut down criticism. As if simply being involved in football makes you some unquestionable savant of the game and there is an objective best way to manage. Also suggests that discussion of football is not welcome.

I found I got unreasonably irate at an official Facebook post from Colchester United yesterday that 'Chesterfield has held a pitch inspection...' . (i.e. with the verb in the singular.) Guess I'm specially anti-Americanisms of late.

'9's
'10's

What was wrong with "centre-forward" or "striker"?


This is at its most nonsensical when teams play with two number 10s.

Ha, this 'schemer' one made me laugh. Exactly, who are these players that think three or four moves ahead? Is it shorthand for a midfielder who does not tackle much and has his socks round his ankles? (I am seeing Muhren and Bishop,
