The things they say...

[E4 jon]

....in Football. Some of my favourites.

"We were a little bit outnumbered there, it was two against two."

"I never comment on referees and I'm not going to break the habit of a lifetime for that prat."

"I'm not a believer in luck but I do believe you need it."

"What will you do when you leave football, Jack... will you stay in football?"

"Celtic were at one time nine points ahead, but somewhere along the road, their ship went off the rails."

"I would not say he [David Ginola] is the best left-winger in the Premiership, but there are none better."

"An inch or two either side of the post and that would have been a goal."

"What's it like being in Bethlehem, the place where Christmas began? I suppose it's like seeing Ian Wright at Arsenal..."

"I was saying the other day, how often the most vulnerable area for goalies is between their
legs ...

"The lad got over-excited when he saw the whites of the goal posts eyes."

"If you can't stand the heat in the dressing-room, get out of the kitchen."

"It's now 1-1, an exact reversal of the score on Saturday."

"We threw our dice into the ring and turned up trumps."

"And I suppose they [Spurs] are nearer to being out of the FA Cup now than any other time since the first half of this season, when they weren't ever in it anyway."

"He's very fast and if he gets a yard ahead of himself nobody will catch him.

"Merseyside derbies usually last 90 minutes and I'm sure today's won't be any different."

"And Arsenal now have plenty of time to dictate the last few seconds."

"I'm going to make a prediction - it could go either way."

"And with 4 minutes gone, the score is already 0-0."

"Strangely, in slow motion replay, the ball seemed to hang in the air for even longer."

"What I said to them at half-time would be unprintable on the radio."

"He's one of those footballers whose brains are in his head."

"I can see the carrot at the end of the tunnel."

"Glenn Hoddle hasn't been the Hoddle we know. Neither has Bryan Robson."

"There's no way Ryan Giggs is another George Best. He's another Ryan Giggs."

"I don't think there is anybody bigger or smaller than Maradona."

'Bolton are on the crest of a slump.'

'He had an eternity to play that ball, but he took too long over it.'

"Celtic manager Davie Hay still has a fresh pair of legs up his sleeve."

It's missing this one from Kevin Keegan if I remember correctly

"Here's 3 new players ,, that means 3 fresh legs"

“A team should never practice on a field that is not lined. Your players have to become aware of the field's boundaries.”

“The fewer rules a coach has, the fewer rules there are for players to break.”

“Hey, the offensive linemen are the biggest guys on the field, they're bigger than everybody else, and that's what makes them the biggest guys on the field.”

“Don't worry about the horse being blind, just load the wagon.”

[Pagalskin]

Some great ones there, E4! One I remember hearing live was:

"Seaman came out there and the attacker didn't like it, you could see it on his face"

Plus one I heard, over the PA, last Saturday:

"Barnet's next home game will be away to Lincoln"

Hahaha.

How about....
"The fact is that Nayim lobbed Seamen from the half way line and that attracted some admirers"

Great quote from David Pleat, from last night’s Barcelona game;

Chelsea wearing white is like a red rag to a bull.

He really should stick to shagging prostitutes in the back of his car and give up the commentary business. The useless prick.

Some old Gordon Stachan quotes and stories ..




Reporter: Welcome to Southampton Football Club. Do you think you are the right man to turn things around?
Strachan: No. I was asked if I thought I was the right man for the job and I said, "No, I think they should have got George Graham because I'm useless."

Reporter: Is that your best start to a season?
Strachan: Well I've still got a job so it's far better than the Coventry one, that's for sure.

Reporter: Are you getting where you want to be with this team?
Strachan: We're not doing bad. What do you expect us to be like? We were eighth in the league last year, in the cup final and we got into Europe. I don't know where you expect me to get to. Do you expect us to win the Champions League?

Reporter: Gordon, you must be delighted with that result?
Strachan: You're spot on! You can read me like a book.

Strachan: I've got more important things to think about. I've got a yogurt to finish by today, the expiry date is today. That can be my priority rather than Agustin Delgado.

Reporter: This might sound like a daft question, but you'll be happy to get your first win under your belt, won't you?
Strachan: You're right. It is a daft question. I'm not even going to bother answering that one. It is a daft question, you're spot on there.

Reporter: Bang, there goes your unbeaten run. Can you take it?
Strachan: No, I'm just going to crumble like a wreck. I'll go home, become an alcoholic and maybe jump of a bridge. Umm, I think I can take it, yeah.

Reporter: There's no negative vibes or negative feelings here?
Strachan: Apart from yourself, we're all quite positive round here. I'm going to whack you over the head with a big stick, down negative man, down.

Reporter: Where will Marion Pahars fit into the team line-up?
Strachan: Not telling you! It's a secret.

Reporter: You don't take losing lightly, do you Gordon?
Strachan: I don't take stupid comments lightly either.

Reporter: So, Gordon, in what areas do you think Middlesbrough were better than you today?
Strachan: What areas? Mainly that big green one out there...

Strachan was on Sky on Sunday morning. He saw John Terry's goal and said he was impressed that Terry goes up expecting to score. He contrasted this to Claus Lundekvam the Saints central defender who goes up for every dead ball and never ever looks remotely like scoring. He said if there was a dead body lying in the penalty area the ball would hit it on the head several times a season which he said is more than Lundekvam can manage. He said referees should book Lundekvam for timewasting every time he goes up for a corner. When the co-commentator said if Lundekvam was watching Strachan was only joking. Strachan assured him he was deadly serious.


Southampton manager Gordon Strachan on Wayne Rooney
Its an incredible rise to stardom. At 17 you're more likely to get a
call from Michael Jackson than Sven Goran Eriksson.

Reporter: Gordon, Do you think James Beattie deserves to be in the
England squad?
Strachan: I dont care, I'm Scottish

Reporter: "Gordon, can we have a quick word please?"
Strachan: "Velocity" [walks off]
