“Couldn’t lace his boots” pertaining to a player who supposedly was the new best thing but would mention another player in the same position
“ Couldn’t trap a bag of cement “ not very skilful!
“ Touch of a rapist” Christ knows where he got that from🤷
“Wouldn’t miss a header in the bath” solid centre half!
Any others? |  | | |  |

"Get your late tackles in early son"
My late Dad's pre match chat to me before playing Sunday mornings in youth football. I don't think it's one you will find in any FA Coaching Manual but it always brings a smile to my face. | | | |

"You got lead in your boots, son?" - when our lumbering centre forward failed to jump for a header.
Miss my Dad. Miss very much going to games with him. Got an amazing picture of him at the play-off final beaming from ear to ear. Would have been 80 then and it is written all over his face that many decades of following the Rangers was finally worth it. |  | | |

Of penalties: "Put it down the middle".
My dad, now no longer with us, God rest his soul, was a goalkeeper who used to take his team's penalties, so he knew what he was talking about, all the more so because he converted all the ones he took  .
He was a -  - Spurs fan, but never tried to discourage me from supporting Rangers and always showed interest in our results. RIP. |  |

Regarding England matches: we’re not winning this because the ref is : Italian/Spanish etc. My dad was Greek.
Wing it, get it down the wing. Have to agree with that one. |  |
