AjcW Posted 3 March 2018 Posted 3 March 2018 Every week I think Martina just turned up at training one day and convinced someone he was a footballer and he’s carried on ever since
kushiro Posted 3 March 2018 Posted 3 March 2018 It's not a good sign when the only real entertainment value a televised match has to offer is the butchering of the English language by the ex-pro in the commentary box. David Prutton is doing a fantastic job so far, and I'm having to make notes just to keep up with him. It's only half time and he's already come up with the following gems: He wanted to say 'he couldn't adjust his feet' but he said 'he couldn't adapt his feet'. He wanted to say either that confidence was 'flowing through him' or maybe 'oozing out of him' - but he said 'oozing through him'. He wanted to use the phrase 'change the complexion of...' but he said 'change the complexity of...' He wanted to say that Everton had 'come into the game' but he said 'built into the game'. He wanted to use the phrase 'getting no joy from...' but he said 'getting no pleasure from...' That last example is a subtle one, but probably my favourite so far. Still - he's got the whole of the second half to better it. I think we need a new thread for these - maybe at the end of the season we can award a prize for the best of the lot - we could call it the 'David Pleat Trophy'. 3

Hopefully he doesn't try to say the phrase "Bucks Fizz".

Domsdad Posted 3 March 2018 Posted 3 March 2018 Burnley showing what happens when you practice corners. They have all been on the money.

KingsX Posted 3 March 2018 Posted 3 March 2018 why would Chris Wood be completely unmarked in the box? He could well keep Burnley above us.
Manwell Pablo Posted 3 March 2018 Posted 3 March 2018 Really need to beat Bournemouth if it stays like this.

moore_94 Posted 3 March 2018 Posted 3 March 2018 Ashley Williams sent off for Everton for wacking a player in the face
Guest Posted 3 March 2018 Posted 3 March 2018 Did you see that shot from the £50m man? Keane is bad but Williams is the worst CB in the prem. What was he doing against the only man who can head a ball? haha now he's been sent off. We have no excuse not to finish 7th.
Legend_in_blue Posted 3 March 2018 Posted 3 March 2018 Barnes made the most of that. I thought it was a full elbow seeing his reaction. It wasn't anything near as bad as that.
Guest seanfox778 Posted 3 March 2018 Posted 3 March 2018 Andy King starting for Swansea against West Ham.
HighPeakFox Posted 3 March 2018 Posted 3 March 2018 A Burnley win keeps us honest and provides a target.
