I'm not 100% sure what a CRINGE actually is, but this picture certainly makes me do at least one, if not more...

Goal music.

Call and repeat goalscorer announcements.

Joey Barton's HAIR.

Players diving like they have been shot.

Players rolling around feigning injury (when everyone knows that if they were really injured, they would not roll around!)

David Beckham talking on any subject.

Boring By Sea
Fans who shout and scream at the team/manager etc during a match in the sad belief that they will pay any attention to what they say.

I just thought of another one.

Hearing the away fans outsing the North Stand all game only for the North Stand to decide in the 75th minute that they'll sing "We forgot that you were here".

That sets off a CRINGE attack.

Under the Police Box
THIS
holding onto players during corners
THIS
running the ball into the corners to run down time
Goal keepers taking stupid lengths of time to kick the ball out and the ref doing nothing about it!
players tweeting
this, this this...
middle aged men wearing replica kits
FAT middle aged men who have NEVER run the length of a pitch!
It's for the kids!
He's alright! Obvious why he is doing this job and not something better though!

Fans who big there team up no end and then go bat shit crazy when they flop.

People who leave stadiums early.

Premier league Commantators who commentate on lower league games on the odd occassion (FA Cup generally) and have no idea who the players are or what they are talking about, just reading scripts prepeared by some intern.

Goal music and the clapper things the club's give out to create more atmosphere and they only work for about the first ten minutes of a game

- The 'tactical genius' style of fan who mistake their hindsight for a never-voiced prior knowledge.

- Sam Allardyce interviews; 'blah blah ref, blah blah disgrace, blah blah disrepute. Man's a monumental tool.

- Meaningless stats being rolled out as if they mean something; 'Brighton haven't won a game at [stadium] for 20 years'
