    Ok since it’s international week ( Yawnnn:mad:) thought we would have a some fun with things from football matches that no matter who’s playing always seems to happen ( hopefully this make sense):rolleyes:

    For example

    If team A is down by more then one goal and Team A scores , the player who scores will always grab the ball from the net and run back to the center circle " to save time"


    I have tons but let see what you lot have

    errr ok and go ! :D

    2nd to last defender
    Strikers never think they are offside.

    Of course when I play I am never offside...:rolleyes:

    Team A supporters have out sung Team B set of fans for most of the game. Team B scores; The chant " your not singing anymore" we'll be started by Team B

    Player is transfered and the next time the two teams involved play the player will always score against his old club.

    Ref's are support to give the striker the advantage in an opposite call/no call, but they always seem to call striker offsides when they are even or even a little before even.

    when player x is sent off and knows he's guilty he pleads complete innocence, is shocked and completely disagrees with the call

    and when defender z's team concedes a goal defender z kicks the ball into the net again as an act of scoring twice or in a vain effort to steal the goal from the opposing player

    If you live in America, Beckham's name will somehow be brought into any "soccer" related conversation

    whenever a team is on a long streak(good or bad) it always ends emphatically

    If idiot Z criticizes Ronaldo, and then a Man Utd fan defends him with very valid points, Idiot Z's only response would be well Ronaldo dives, and or he is "gay"

    when a team gets a new coach they will win the next game and after that its a complete toss up as to what happens next

    if England has to face a penalty shoot out flights back to london are booked immediately

    defensive players will never get the glory and plaudits attacking players do

    If a player nearly scores say just over the cross bar, hits the cross bar or the side netting. The set of fans just behind the goal will all throw there hands over their head in disappointment

    speaking of returning players

    if returning player Q was not a legend or a bench warmer his former clubs' fans will boo him whenever he has the ball

    or the war *two world wars, one world cup*:D

    Got two-

    Lowly team A will play out of their skin and get draw/win against top four team B then get thrashed by another lowly club.

    Team A will go down to ten men but Team B still cannot score. Teams going down to ten men always do better then when they had eleven.

    Ballack - Yesterday I made a song called 'Three World Cups, three European Championships and the perfect economic model of the latter part of the 20th century, doo daa, doo daa' but they had already gone after trainings when I was preparing to sing it to them. I sang it instead to Ricky Carvahlo but he just looked confused. I think he might be mentally simple, but I like him, he is eine 'top geezer'!

    I think the funny sayings are the best:

    Mistake prone keepers are always praised for being "good shot stoppers" despite the fact that this is the very basic essence of what their job is?

    Whe a goal is scored people always "back of the net" desite the fact that the actual back of the net is aronud the other side?

    Why are prolific strikers called goal "machines" because they're not really machines....

    :p

    Whenever there is a scrappy passage of play with a few meaty but fair tackles going in and the crowd are really getting into it, the referee will always book the next player to commit a foul however innocuous.

    Why?

    When Team A has possession for minutes at a time, fans of Team B will cheer the loudest all game when they finally get the ball, if even for only a moment.

    The team that starts the half in the middle would definitely play the second pass back.

    If a certain team is winning and has stringed together 5 + passes the supporters of said team will start a chant of "ole's" per every consecutive pass afterwards.
