  • -People in offices talking about football as if they're an authority on it during the world cup with messi this, neymar that despite never showing any interest in football at any other time.


    -Arm chair premier league big club fans in offices who talk like they're an authority on football despite not having any insight beyond what sky pumps into their hollow heads.


    -People in offices who to about "stats" in relation to big 4 club players despite never going near a real life football ground.


    -The (nice) bloke years ago in an office who asked me who I supported and when I replied Charlton he asked in all seriousness "Yes but what premier league team?"


    -How football has become "culturally appropriated" by the selection of morons in offices outlined above since circa 1996.

    -People in offices

    - Working in offices

    What about the actual offices?
  • Hard water. Irrespective of which wash cycle I use, which washing powder and which fabric conditioner I use, the towels always come out with the texture of a scouring pad
  • The ratio of sparking water to still water at any event. Do any people even drink the first? Yet it’s always seems to be a 50/50 split resulting in the still running out!

    On a similar note, people who drink Coke, Lemonade, Cherryade any other fizzy drink you care to name but won't drink sparkling water. So I have to put up with still all the time, or order two bottles.
  • Piles

    You need more fabric conditioner or you need to tumble dry them, rather than letting them dry to a crisp on the washing line/rotary.

    Get yourself a load of bicarbonate of soda or some soda crystals. Put a scoop of them in the drawer whenever you do a wash. It helps your machine not get furred up as well

  • That fucking Torres bloke is doing my head in.

    Well done to all the England players for rising above it.

    No doubt the FA or FL will think it would be good to have over here.

    Watching the World Cup in a pub full of ignorant old men pontificating about football and footballers.
    Not one of whom follow football.
    Aaaaargh!!!!!

    Same pub. Same men. Same arsehole comments.
    They shut up when we went 3-0 up.
    Come on England!
  • Pricks like this

    It’s only a blue rucksack
    True.

    But that rucksack comes out once or twice every 4 years, and gets in my way when I want a beer.

    Another one that's (literally) just occured to me is: people that 'run' past a monitor/screen/projector/TV etc but duck down....That's more distracting than just walking past normally you fucking dickface. A) you ain't as tall as you think, B ) you look like a prick and C) The 1.7 seconds I would have missed of the match has turned in to 10 seconds of me giving you my favourite hand signal, and 3 minutes of having to post on here

    No idea what you mean

    Knobs that pick you up on a b) when you mean a b )

  • B) I mean why the deduct does that even happen?
  • And auto spell adjustments for fuck that don’t make sense
  • Frank, we all have them mate. I drink and live I Chatham. I've heard some beauties today about how England should be playing and who should be playing.

    The same dickheads were jumping up and down as we marauded a 5th in today
  • All the above is why I haven't properly watched a game in a pub in about 20 years*. I heartily recommend it.



    *that and I'm a right miserable fecker...
  • The fact I’m feeling a good era for the English national team is approaching as we have a WC in Russia and then Qatar and as I’ve now got/hope to have extra responsibilities, they’re no good for doing quick day trips in and out.

    All the tournaments over the last 12 years I’ve done when we’ve been total cack!!
  • People putting up photos of Harry Kane in an England with the hashtag, COYS

    Just the general "Club before Country" for many fans annoys me, I manage to support Charlton and England with the same vigour so struggle to see why others cant

    Many of those fans are supporters of the top six and so are fans of their clubs because of the success they bring (aka Glory Hunters) - Because the England National Team dont win anything, those fans arent interested; no doubt if Harry Kane scores the winner in the World Cup Final the comments will be: "Spurs won the World Cup"
    Bang on

    Think yourself lucky mate, most of my England away games/tournament were in the Taylor era
