It's bad enough with Danny Ward the Welsh  Goalie from Llandidntsaveany and Gavin Ward the ref whose mate posted in here in the classic thread, but now you tell us there is ANOTHER Ward.

 

Oh noes.

 

 

David Ward because he's Welsh, not because of speed typing, of course

We're benching the Premier League for now. Going to park that idea for later.

We need to move the goal posts, as the Premier League seems to be above our pay-grade atm, but I'm not sure everyone will buy-in to the idea of relegation, given the dumpster fire we're now in.

Well, if his thread has taught us anything, it has taught us that Leicester fans don't know what a euphemism is.  

 

I do.

In particular the topic starter @Free Falling Foxes

 

He meant well, though and has generated at least 3 pages of nonsense.

Ruud’s trying to paint this beautiful picture with his own new paintbrushes! 

 

Top won’t give him them (too expensive apparently) so he’s having to use some old ones he’s found underneath the tables that have never done the job consistently and everyone knows aren’t good enough  

 

And now Ruud’s picture is poor and he’s getting the blame for it, the previous artist had new paintbrushes but decided to leave them in the packet and then spent £20 million on a new paint board when he didn’t need one. (Winks and Skipp) 

 

In short… Blame this mess on the Board not on Ruud

That's an acronym not a euphemism as is FUBAR.

 

And I can't work it out. 

 

And, the title of this topic is a bit misleading as the examples given at the top aren't actually euphemisms but more like  metaphors.

 

Anyway, let's continue with (metaphorical) ways  to describe us and the situation we're in.

 

It's like starting your summer holiday with hope and looking forward to fun, exciting and happy times only to discover that whatever the travel agent promised isn't happening and you wish you'd never got so involved with that slightly dodgy nightclub dancer after you discover she has herpes and was wearing a wig.

 

Then all you want to do is go home but you're stuck in the place you really don't want to be.
