More of a commentary thing but the constant usage of "those little pockets of space." Just say "space." Saying "little pockets" really adds nothing.

Just nitpicking but it genuinely irritates me hearing it a dozen times during every commentary.

Fans who think they no better than the manager 👍

Ole in 👍

Lack of preparation from commentators/pundits. It's your job. Get your facts right.

Case in point. BT pundits thinking Pogba was eligible for the PL games during a suspension.

They annoy me too. Not as much as your spelling of 'know' though!

Kids holding “Can I have your shirt” signs in the crowd.

Back in the 90s when a player threw their shirt into the crowd you were competing with 17 stone bald men with glasses, a father of three, students.

You had to stand on the seat, get your elbows out, bite people, it was trench warfare! People got hurt!

If you’re not willing to trample over a 50 year old nurse from Bury to get a shirt, do you REALLY want it?

Kids today

Players taking to social media after a pasting and coming out with $hit like... “all in this together” and “ready to fight for each other”

Apologies sir , David Moyes could you have given him more time or was it that the fans new best

gobby kants like henderson who run their mouth on the pitch giving it large when you know they would struggle to knock out a w@nk, let alone a full grown man

Hi Dunk, he saved West Ham from relegation first time round and the owners thought they could do better and realised their mistake and brought him back so please stop spinning the myth he did a poor job. He was brought in on a 6 month contract to do a job and he did it. He would have relegated them if it was a poor job.

Half n half scarves

Signs asking for shirts

Prickks that spend half the game with their camera phones out

Fancammers

Twitter

Female commentators

Goalkeepers holding the ball for ages (what happened to the 6 second rule)

Players covering their mouths when chatting to each other

Players feigning injuries, especially head injuries

Goal music

Happy clappers

I find this one more silly than annoying but goalkeepers who celebrate making a save, it’s your job, what next a midfielder celebrating making a successful pas to a teammate, or a striker celebrating scoring a goal even

Glory hunting fans from a far away place in the arse-end of nowhere who have no real attachment to a club other than the team was winning when they first got into football and it served to give them an ego boost/kudos/one-upmanship.

They are happy to laud it over everyone else when things are going well, yet when things take a turn for the worst (as they always do, this is part and parcel of sport), they feel personally insulted by the football club and its employees as if the club is there just to give them gratification.

F*cking horrible cants.

Well, they hired him again so it’s fair to say they had some faith in his ability. And he did actually save them from relegation 👍

Yes!

This applies to all levels of football. The number of players you come up against that give it massive all game, then meekly stand and offer their hand at full time, knowing they've got to go and stand in the pub with you all after the game.

Social media apologies from players has been a recent annoyance. Everyone knows the players don’t even write them.

they need to stop the clock when the ball is out of play or stopped

would be the biggest revolution in football history if they did that

in an average match, i bet the ball is in play for no more than 20 mins

That shrill women commentating on MOTD. The mute button can't be reached quickly enough.

getting women's footy rammed down our throats

that needs to stop

60 min matches would be great tbh. As you say, stop the ball when out of play and you get far more football in that 60 mins

it would also put a stop to the nonsense running the clock down at the end of matches that happens in most footy games
