    A bird in the hand is worth 2 in the bush. Need I say more?

    Didn't 2 in the hand is worth one in Kate Bush do the rounds back in the day ?

    My glass of beer is half full, whereas you think it is half empty, that depends who is buying the next round?

    Its a horse that's a gift from someone.

    Which you shouldn't look in the mouth of because it is a gift so you don't need to check it is healthy (by looking in its mouth) because it hasn't cost you anything.

    It probably won't be actually.

    Useless stats rolled out such as "first win at Rotherham since 1963" which apart from the last two seasons is probably the last time we actually played there.

    When all the media outlets roll out the "ended xxxxx's 100% home record" making it sound dramatic as though we had won something like 18 consecutive home games when in reality it lasted 2 home games.

    "Going forward" appended to almost any sentence, as in:

    We've got 46 games this season going forward.

    The plan is to deliver 10 staff training session this year going forward.

    I'm having a ham sandwich for lunch going forward.

    You can't have your cake and eat it

    Exactly, why the hell wouldn't I eat my cake?

    It's my flipping cake, just try and stop me.
    Don't know if this is a joke, but that's not what it means. It means you can't eat your cake and then still have it there in front of you. Eg. You can't have it both ways.
    Ha ha ha I genuinely had never seen it explained.

    The saying has just become even more stupid. Why not settle for 'You can't have it both ways'
