Football annoyances

People who stand at the exits and then argue with the stewards when politely asked to move.2

Own goals...3

This, this and this again.Henry Irving said:Away sides wearing their change kit when there is no colour clash
Never wondered why some teams change their shorts if they clash with the other team (both white for example), but some clubs don’t.1 -
The players of Crystal Palace and Millwall showing spirit and detemination to battle for wins whilst ours....10
-
Watching Final Score and seeing Garth Crooks morph into Jakob Zuma.2
-
Fans who smoke in the toilet cubicles at half time.3
-
5 being treated like a third class citizen.3
-
Players wearing gloves when it’s not even cold (goalkeepers are exempt)6

Adding to this; the presumption that English Football fans are the worst in existance!!Solidgone said:5 being treated like a third class citizen.

Today's results. From my perspective it's harder to imagine a much worse set.
The club I love: Charlton (lost).
Clubs I hate: Millwall (won), Palace (won), West Ham (won).
Clubs I like: Southend (lost), Canvey Island (lost), Leyton Orient (won, albeit to Haringey Borough!), Great Wakering Rovers (postponed).
Clubs I dislike: Leeds (won), Chelsea (won), Gillingham (won), Wigan (won).
Clubs I quite like: Brighton (drew), Villa (lost), Watford (lost), Forest (lost), Barnet (won).
Clubs I couldn't care less about: All the rest (doesn't matter).
Now to top it all, I've put Pointless on to try and escape from football misery and they got bloody Geoff Thomas on there, arrrggghhh!!!!!

Especially by 20 year old kids who haven't played more than a handful of games. If, and I say if, they have to be worn at all, then only by seasoned pro's who can say that they have actually achieved something.Boysie said:Half and Half Scarves
The proliferation of all black away kits
Coloured boots
Socks pulled up above the knee, like schoolgirls1 -
Blimey....and I thought that I was the only one that felt that. Etched on my mind is that when the trophy as lifted all I want to hear is a roar - and all I remember is the sound of fireworks going off.charltonbob said:
This at our play off final, the music & fireworks were so loud when Kin Kin Kinsella lifted the trophy it totallySporadicAddick said:- Bubble Machines
- oversized flags waved when a goal is scored
- inane statements written in an "ultra" font
- Champions League / Premier league "anthems"
- handshakes that aren't a proper handshake but that modern "thumb shake"
- a "thumb shake" combined with a "shoulder barge" between every player before kick off
- pointing two fingers at the sky and looking up at kick off / after scoring a goal.
- teams coming out of the tunnel side by side when it's not a cup final
- any music pre / during / post match that drowns out the sound of the crowd
- the use of fireworks at any point in a game, especially when a cup is lifted
- as above for ticker tape
- the modern cup presentation where the captain gets the trophy at the end and all his team mates stand on a stage doing that stupid thing with their hands
- Roland Duchatelet
I could go on...
ruined the post match celebrations for me cause you couldn't hear any Charlton songs/chants.
Yes I know it was a long time ago & I don't think about it day in day out but just saying

Adults smoking in toilets.0

Players who get away with shepherding the ball out of play (especially defenders manipulating for a goal kick), and deliberately preventing an opponent from playing the ball......any other place on the pitch and the ref would blow up for blatant obstruction?
Never understood how this anomaly has been allowed over many many years to develop and is now considered the norm?
IMHO it’s obstruction, pure and simple.3 -
Agree, although kids are ok.PopIcon said:Adults smoking in toilets.

Keepers who repeatedly carry the ball outside the box when making clearances.....why are the linos not picking this up, as well as TV commentators and pundits......some keepers get away with it continually.0
-
Encroachment at penalty kicks.......I swear referees and lino’s don’t give a shyte, sometimes they’re almost level with the taker!

Unnecessary amounts of punditry on highlight shows like Match of the Day and Football on 5.
It tends to involve them just repeating everything you've just seen with someone describing it to you with a load of meaningless cliches thrown in.
This makes the show last twice as long as it needs to be. No way should a Premier League goals program take an hour and a half to present about 6 matches.6 - Sponsored links:

People who call it footy/footie. Same c**** that call rugby "rugger".
Stadiums that have seats where there should be terraces.0 -
The nonsensical rule that a player who's been treated for an injury has to go off the pitch after they've been treated!
It doesn't save time, and penalises the team with the injured player, when they might have a dangerous situation1 -

people on their phones at a game telling their mate about the latest scores from around the country1

I quite like the current incarnation with Murray, Big Chris and Caroline Barker. Better than the match of the day love in with linekar, shearer and nobber.cafctom said:Unnecessary amounts of punditry on highlight shows like Match of the Day and Football on 5.

When a ref books a goalkeeper who is time wasting taking a goal kick has to go from near the half way line to the keeper to show him the yellow. That then wastes more time!1

I genuinely dislike the image of the modern footballer
So plastic. Headphones, tattoos, FIFA and hip hop and r’n’b. That’s pretty much what I think all of them are like. I’m sure some are very individual and have personalities, but it’s very hard to tell15 -
Animated / Electronc advertising boards around the pitch doing their best to distract you.3
