Things about football that get you unreasonably annoyed…

100% and anytime I see a picture of him in an England shirt it doesn't even look right. hard, yea but crap

He reckons at one World cup he was told he was being "saved" for the knock outs! Just seems utter nonsense.

The 'hands over ears', 'fingers in ears' or 'shh' celebrations

If the criticism, opposition fans or media talk didn't bother them, then they wouldn't need to do the celebration. Just fecking ignore it.

"WHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA..........YOU'RE SHIT, AAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH" To a goalie doing a goal kick. It's something you seem to get from small time clubs, I'm talking your Ipswiches, your Bournemouths, your Blackburns, your Wrexhams. (@Pascal Quiff )

It's fecking stupid, as they only shout "you're shit, aaaaaarrrrrrrrggggghhh" after he's already launched it down the field. I went to a Wrexham game recently, and they were doing it to an opposition goalie all game. Then the opposition scored up the other end, the goalie turned to give them some stick and they all went apoplectic with rage about him having the audacity to give a bit back.

Players clearing snot from their nose. The only thing worse is television producers who capture this highlight in close up. Why can't players pick their noses in private like civilised slobs?
It's utterly gross.

Agreed, whenever I hear that 'chant' it just seems so childish and pathetic. Nothing fun or witty about it whatsoever and it shocks me that such large groups willingly do it.

It seems to be purely a lower league thing. There's certain chants that smaller teams seem to do en masse.

"Der der der, Football in a library" is another one.

It sued to be a thing in all divisions - probably changed when all-seater stadiums came in, it was definitely a thing in the Stretty in days gone by

Need an american shot clock on corners and set pieces (Kidding of course ,but wish refs would be on this). Of all the time wasting and slowing down of the game, this kills me.

Football fans who think managers are justified in saying anything provided it’s the truth.

Eg, Amorim tells the press his players are a bunch of shit useless wankers, “but he’s telling the truth!!!”

 

[MaxZorin]

When a team win a game they've been thoroughly outplayed in, the commentators talk about 'having to hand it to them' and their 'steely resolve'.

Sometimes, you are just jammy!
