What has actually happened to Joe Hart?

So do you think he was just wrong or do you think he confused the rectangular 18-yard box and the D-shaped D? I'm confused.
If you call the penalty area the D, what do you call the D?
Why do you call a rectangular box a "D" when its shaped nothing like a "D" and what do you actually call the thing that is actually shaped like a "D"?
It's called a D when it's fecking D-shaped you muppet. Otherwise it's called the box, because you know, it's fecking box shaped.
Don't you drag us fellow Indians into this.
Just to be clear folks, we don't call the rectangular shaped box the D and the D a semi circle.
He has already said that he was refering to the 18 yard box as the "D". I've seen it referred to as that by several people, it's wrong obviously, but nothing to get so carried away over.
In cloud cuckoo land, aye it is.
Now getting the requisite criticism from Gaz
Why on Earth would you call something that's clearly not D-shaped "the D", then call the thing that is clearly D-Shaped, and commonly referred to as "the D" something else that takes longer to say? Why is "the box" and "the D" not sufficient? Why do you have to go and feck it up and make some poor chap on the internet look like a muppet?
It's a hockey thing. Hockey has penalty areas which are D shaped, a terminology which often gets carried over to football.
And this has to do with Joe Hart how exactly?
Yeah that happens in lots of sports. It even happens in football in 5-a-side when the GK's area is often D-Shaped. It gets called the D when it is actually a D. When it isn't a D and is a box it gets called the box. Because it's a box.
Casillas did the Head and Shoulders ads in Spain.
Coincidence? I think not.
It's the Nike ad, World Cup curse all over again.

Some poor bloke who comes from somewhere weird that refers to the box as the D and the D as the semi-circle fell foul of the normal way of referring to things around here and subsequently looked stupid in his assessment of Joe Hart's brave blunder.
Demon-lord De Gea has absorbed all his powers and made him shit.
I fecking know that. And you really need to let go of it. I'm trying to tell you why he said what he said, and that he was indeed referring to the penalty box and that he obviously didn't use the correct description. Just let go of it. This is a thread to laugh at Joe Hart, not at what Varun prefers to call the penalty area. Or you can continue to derail the thread, if that's your wish.
feck me! Compare Casillias to Hart? In what universe? He was one of the greatest GKs ever.Hart's a...billy big bollocks
The curse of the keeper who starts dicking about with his hair..see David James
I know why he said it. He explained that himself. I was just pointing out that it's really fecking stupid.
Good. Now let it go.
Where is this "here" you're referring to?
The last two pages of this thread is more about the "D" than Hart's feck up..
Can someone photoshop a cape on to Hart as he bravely charges out?
And some random vitriol because of that.
Grow up Alex, and take that rod you have sticking out of your arse out, it's affecting your posts.

It's like a clitoris, no one can find it
What?
What does annoy me about Sky is their lack of a backbone when it comes to Hart. HE makes a huge mistake today and Sky are quick to remind us Kompany doesn't play. I think it will be interesting to see what Pellegrini does, these managers will show no loyalty to players like that really, Hart was average last season and has been the same again, there's only so long he can survive off the title winning season. Even then whilst he was very good he made mistakes, just they meant nothing as the team were 3-0 up
Dunno.
Christ, am not quoting 7 people in my reply. I quite clearly meant the box when I said the D. Why do I call it that? I have no clue really, its what I grew up calling the box when I used to play as a kid. Doesnt make sense but there you go.
Loved the way kps quickly got defensive and distanced indians from me though
, dont worry kps, not every indian is going to be judged because of a post from me.

Bit of a weird accusation to be honest. Not sure when pointing out that it's daft to call something that's not a D, a D became vitriolic but whatever.
City are better off playing last man back at this stage. He's wank, Joe Hart.
Varun's been living off past glories for too long. If De Gea had made that post..

Once we'd established you did actually mean the box I don't think anyone really thought you were being daft anymore, but is a daft way of naming things.
Nah, you just came across as a wanker. So I thought I'd do some social service.
By coming across as a wanker yourself? Nice work.
Seriously, the last two pages need to be deleted. We can't even laugh at Joe Hart properly

Yes, back to Hart.
He makes the same sort of mistake all the time and it's always to do with him charging out like a loon. It either ends like it did today with him wiping out Nastasic and being in no man's land, or like it did against CSKA where he stops far too early leaving the opposing attacker to either easily knock it round him or lob it over him. What a shit keeper.
And the thing in the centre that is shaped like a circle, with a line through it ?? is the called the double DD or I am thinking of the girl in N4210
