People who become football experts once every four years.



Doing a job in a posh office today and I've just come back from the "chill out area" (used to be called a coffee machine) and had to hold my tongue at a couple of toady nerds who wouldn't know a football if it whacked them in their shrivelled up scrotums. f***ing moaning on about the state of English football and how much better other sides are.
Now, this may be true but what gives these twittering arse munchers the right to say so. They spend four years fiddling with thier own sausages whilst gently grilling their local club over the fading embers of little Britainness, complaining about noisey football fans and the bad example set by David Beckams and Mickey Rooney, then try and hitch a free ride on the glory bound bullett train to world football dominance and think they can spout their uneducated, flatulant opinion at any poor soul trying to get a quick coffee before he starts work.
I f***ing HATE THEM.

Not strong at all. I am all for people joining in with the festivities and so on. BUt Joe Average that hasn't got time for football until a big tournament and then as you say, becomes an expert....:nono:

Where are they when their local club needs them, the bread and butter of football? Nowhere to be seen.

Then we see them again in four years time, or two years if they can face the Euro Championship without the sexy Brazil playing.

So? Reminds me a bit of the snobbery shown on here during the build-up to the play-off final towards some of the fans who - like me, obvously - HADN'T stood in the snow 40 years ago watching us getting beaten at Darlington or wherever.

Moneyed, irritating poshos, along with their spoilt children - who, like 90% of Reading's support will be more interested in hotdogs than the game - are among the sort of people we'll need to fill Falmer.

plastics do my head in. Some geezer had a painted face and a drum down the pub on sunday . .. . whats that all about.
The worse kind is def those that you mention who not only have an opinion on it all but they refuse to conced any of your points.....middle management are particularly bad as they feel cos they are above you this gives them greater knowledge on all areas. it f king doesnt !!
I usually find most these plastics are super negative too ! we are in the 1/4 finals ffs , get behind the team , wash that paint off your face , shove that flag up your ar se and get behind the team you annoying , no knowledge PLASTIC

I agree MOH, unfortunatly I think that most of this type of 'fan' are more likely to support Chelsea or Man U. I know I'm generalising, and I don't buy into this idea of 'glory hunters' when it comes to play off finals or Tottenham games we need as many people as possible to turn out, but they bloody annoyed me.

And it was supossed to be a light hearted tale of everyday work place anger and bitterness.:p

Now THAT I buy into.

The very posh people are work with are YOUNG, NICE and very KNOWLEDGEABLE about football. They even organise clever little sweepstakes and shit, and I join in - right, like THEY have been to Carlisle to see us draw 0-0. How f***ing irritating is that? :angry:

I went to that game...therefore I am a super-fan. And an expert on football at least once every two years.

I had to hold my tounge in Boots the other day. I was waiting to pay for my razor blades when an old couple came up behind me talking about the previous nights England vs Paraguy game. One of them was convinced that the game was a draw becuase it was an own goal so did not count.

I nearly died when the other one replied or at least give the points to Parguay at least they scored.
