When did these enter the football/life vocabulary.
Fishing show with Zamora, he’s ok, and some other guy using them like they are going out of fashion. Talking like a footballer being interviewed with the immortal questions
a. Talk me through etc
b. How did it feel etc
Just sounds ridiculous [Post edited 4 Dec 2024 1:58]

Didn't Top Bins come from Soccer AM, where they had a shooting challenge into bins in the top corners of a goal.
Any other stupid expression you've heard probably originated from there too, and most likely from Jimmy Bullard. |  | | |

I just assumed it was a Gen Z thing, but it may well be Soccer AM that started a lot of them.

I'd never heard anyone use underlap and late doors until Joe Cole was on TV punditry duty. Not sure if he actually came up with those terms... |  |

Rhasper (sp) is so much more classy than banger.
Was it Kenneth Wolstenhome to a Bobby Charlton thunderbolt "Oh I say that's a Rhasper" or something similar.
"Oh I say that's a banger" not the same gravitas.

One of my favourites was Brian Moore in the late 1980s commentating on an overhit cross ( as per Paul Smyth)

Think it's a bit harsh, vocabulary changes and evolves. There will be loads of phrases we use often that generations before us would think sounds ridiculous. Some of the kids I coach used the phrase 'bicey' (pronounced like the first half of bicycle) referring to an overhead kick, which I thought sounded ridiculous. They also love the phrase 'Brexit tackle', referring to a full blooded slide tackle that wipes out the opponent.
That being said, I despise the phrase 'cooking', which is way overused and really cringey. Plus the whole pseudo-tacticos on twitter, using phrases such as 'pausa', which is one of Clive's favourites. |  | | |

007. Apparently, this is used when a striker scores no goals and provides no assists in 7 games.
So when my son told me Celar was 007 I really did think WTF are you talking about.
It's a Gen Z thing apparently. [Post edited 4 Dec 2024 12:41]

Someone on here kicked off about the same phrase, and asked if there was such a thing as 'late doors?'
I couldn't resist and replied: 'Jim Morrison!' |  |

A great saying. Some of our midfielders could do with learning it. | | | |

Touche my friend... add into the mix, asking the bar(person) "Can I get" (usually followed by something modern such as a 3/4 pint of sour molluscs tongue or some such). Pedantic maybe. |  | | |
