sheded 0 Posted April 19, 2005 My pet hates are :- Players who pick up the ball after the whistles blown A goal scorer running around like a demented lunatic , chased by a bunch of blokes wanting to hug and kiss him ..... yech !! Players who obviously spend more time training their hair than they do training their feet ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LinkNR9 0 Posted April 19, 2005 I get irritated when a player picks the ball out of the net (after his team has scored the equaliser or pulled a goal back) and then rushes back to put the ball on the centre spot for the re-start. Why bother? The other team will only stroll back to take the kick-off; it''s not as if they''re thinking, "Crikey, the other team''s in a hurry, we''d better run to the centre spot and get on with the game"!!!

alex_ncfc 662 Posted April 19, 2005 I get irritated with how some of them get paid near on £100k a week for kicking a ball about just once a week and it''s still not enough... (obviously not aimed at Norwich players!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brum Uni Canary 0 Posted April 19, 2005 Players and managers who say "I''ve got a lot of respect/time for so and so" in interviewsEarrings (Beckham and Cristiano Ronaldo spring to mind)Dropping to the ground like they have been shot, then clutching their knee (when it is blatantly the ankle or foot) and writhing in agony after the smallest or most non existent touch by an opposing player.

westoncanary. 0 Posted April 19, 2005 1. Agents-greedy flash p****s, taking money out of the game.2. Sunday league players with upturned collars - "You are not good enough mate, if you were you wouldn''t be playing sunday league. If you are good enough, stop showing off and try a harder standard".3. The "only here for the money" attitude of some players. (Robert, Bogarde etc)4. Distinctly average foreigners getting in the way of talented homegrown talent.5. Flemings "not my fault" look.

Jedi Knight 0 Posted April 19, 2005 Unnecessary glove wearing during the game unless it''s very sub-zero (goalkeepers exempt of course) - e.g. Christiano RonaldoTwo earrings (taped up with micropore) can''t you take them out? , e.g. Christiano RonaldoPlayers who have their mouths open all the time e.g. Christiano Ronaldo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kathy 733 Posted April 19, 2005 This is a bit girlie I know but I hate one handed nose clearances.Whats wrong with popping a small paper hankie up your sleeve before you run out onto the pitch? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StevenageFan 0 Posted April 19, 2005 Theres this bloke, ugly guy, always shouts at me on a Sunday morning, something about showing off??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
westoncanary. 0 Posted April 19, 2005 He wouldn''t be shouting, he would just "Stuart Pearce" you in the first minute, leaving you clutching your silver boots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StevenageFan 0 Posted April 19, 2005 White boots with my name stitched into them if you please Stuart Pearce, bah! You''re one of those old men that still plays thinking he still has it aren''t you. Gone are the days when you used to turn your collar up and show the skills. Now you just squeeze into the largest shorts the gaffer has purchased, suck in the beer belly and try to outfox the collar up gang with your better footballing brain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Normann Canary 0 Posted April 19, 2005 my pet hate is when they do the head knock... it''s so lame... up in eachothers faces and butting eachother like two stags! pointless really...But I love the aeroplane... don''t ask me why but everytime I see a player (which isn''t that often anymore) do the aeroplane, it makes me laugh reminds me of my son after he''s had an ice-cream Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brum Uni Canary 0 Posted April 19, 2005 At the weekend when he scored against Villa, Crouch went one further than the aeroplane and started doing some flapping, vaguely imitating the Chicken Tonight adverts...that is plain embarrassing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Normann Canary 0 Posted April 19, 2005 [quote]At the weekend when he scored against Villa, Crouch went one further than the aeroplane and started doing some flapping, vaguely imitating the Chicken Tonight adverts...that is plain embarrassing.[/quote]that is embarrasing... ever seen anyone "walk like an eygptian"?, i reckon that could be aswell...Another one I love is the the top over the head... i''m just waiting to see someone run into the goal post anyone ever seen that?? Don''t mind the sliding... pile ups are a bit boring...Anyway, did Mckenzie get in trouble for taking his top off? I thought they had cracked down on the shirt over the head? So what happens if you take it off?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
