    From the tweet about CBT the other day "carries" - this isn't Rugby!

    This one. Pundits say it like toptop is one word. 

    I also think any pundit who says 'unbelievable' should have their appearance fee docked. They shouldn't be so surprised by things happening in football.

    Another one is 'this player has got genuine pace' as opposed to what? Why can't they just have pace?

    “Recycle possession”… you mean a team are keeping the ball.
    I think this actually comes from basketball where it means more to "reset" and start the attack again.

    'You know what scares defenders most?' Pace.

    So put Usain Bolt in the team and the defenders will be shitting themselves even though he couldn't trap a bag of cement.

    Can I add ‘he’s got a good head on his shoulders’. Always an advantage I think. Why never a bad head?

    A few years back someone on here was annoyed at 'go to ground' which didn't mean 'fall over' as much as 'go into hiding'.

    It didn't bother me until I read it here. Now it fucks me off every time I hear it so maybe I should stop checking this thread before more stuff gets added to the list.

    Yes what the he'll is that!
    What's wrong with just 'race'?
    I think its an American import. Said in NFL all the time

    Does not apply to Charlton. They have no choice.

    The use of quarterback is another dubious import from another sport.
