Alan Dicks' Barmy Army Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 A few weeks back I was in the states and watched the Manchester City v PSG match on Fox Sports, I had many a chuckle at some of the phrases they used within the commentary. Anyone who has heard American commentary will know what I mean. Tonight I was reading the tweets from our womens match against villa, and again had to chuckle. Does anyone else think that maybe an American is writing our tweets? Ps great win for the vixens, they are now top of the league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tipps69 Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 I'm currently watching the Villarreal Vs Liverpool game on FoxSports1 & the constant use of "The balls too tall" for any ball that goes over a players head is doing my head in!! The ball hasn't all of a sudden grown to 7ft tall!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leveller Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 OMG. It's bad enough with everyone saying "on the team" instead of "in the team" and snuck instead of sneaked. That's a real pet hate. Please stop it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome To The Jungle Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 Went to Portsmouth last summer and followed a Yank around the Victory who was constantly talking about the women's world cup final. Me: She did not take a shot from the midfield, she took a shot from midfield! I never actually vocalised my irritation, just let it bottle up as the good Brit that I am. Although when he pointed at the plaque on the deck denoting where Nelson fell and had to ask the guide "Is that where Nelson fell?", I could have seriously damaged Anglo-American relations there and then. Me: "No! We put the plague there as a ****ing joke!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
