Yogi's current fave - they'll know theyve been in a game 

[graham 49]

Yogi is great to listen to and an inspiration to his team, meanwhile with no players likely to be signed soon ,Derek McInnes has to' work with what we have in the building'.

"win a penalty"

You are awarded a penalty by the referee, if you "win" a penalty then it suggests conscious effort on your part to get the penalty in which case it's most probably involved a dive or additional theatrics which is essentially cheating.

 You can get a real diddy of a defender to foul you .Lull them in , quick feet .., bang. I wouldn't say that was cheating.

"No one remembers the beaten finalists"    I do. It's usually us. 

[strachanmcgheegoal 736]

I think there's a qualifying statement required there.

No one remembers the beaten finalists (if their fans can be home within 30 mins of the final whistle)

Reading through the thread and was going to post similar.

Fucking cunt of a saying.

One that adds on to this is when they speak about a shot beating the keeper but its wide or hits the post 
Goalkeepers cover an area where it would go in not the entire dead ball line.
Lazy unimaginative rubbish

It’s always a great “left peg”.

Never a great right peg.

Yeah I know after a 3-0 Horsing at Villa if I recall. Just goes to show (Leicester top just now) if you believe and nurture talent it can be done.

A few weeks later they'd done the triple double or summat
