A similar one is people who cannot get basic English right and say "I would of" or "I could of" instead of "I could have"

What's really sad about this is they grow up expecting to be coached in that manner. Two of my players actually told me last week they don't listen to me simply because I don't rant and rave and litter every sentence with the 'c' word.

So I've handed over the duties to someone who will. :(

In our case, it was the coach of the U8s team. What a twat. It's taken about 2 years to get the little 'un back into enjoying football

In one of my son's school teams I used to dread it when a certain boy played up front. He was tall with some skill, but chunky and unfit.

As soon as our team had the ball, his loud dad would be telling our player to hit the long ball forward to his kid. It's v hard for a youngster to try to play it through midfield etc, when an adult is shouting at him from a few feet away.

On the bright side, the boy could only play in bursts so would be subbed off quite regularly (to the disbelief of the dad who couldn't see the obvious reason why). After a year of this, I learned to stand further apart from him on the touchline so he couldn't draw me into awkward conversations along the lines of....eg 'why's my son subbed off again', answer 'cos he can't run mate, open your blooming eyes and look!'.

Kayjay I'm surprised you didn't just write, Everything! Or at the very least, New South Welshmen!! :)

Better than people who write BA hons or BSc hons after their name on work auto signatures. Every **** has a degree, no one is impressed.

Gooders 18-12-2014 10:56 AM
I had an American colleague in my last job who had about 6 sets of letters after his name (none of which was a degree :))

He was as thick as two short planks (and bone idle to boot).

racialist (I actually heard someone I know non-ironically say this just before they were going to moan about the muzzies)
simples
litrully
on route
bantz
doggy dog world
pre-Madonnas
going for a cheeky ______ (e.g. cheeky fag, cheeky Nando's - if you say this you are a ****, irony present or otherwise)
our _____ (e.g. our lads, our Steve - basically that stupid Northern thing)
on-line
x-box (stop putting ******* dashes everywhere in product names)
overuse of literally
using 'like' as a filler word (**** off scousers & Geordies)

People who let their dog jump all over you when you go to their house

People who read out aloud from the paper and over emphasise key words to embellish the point of the story .

Normally stories about immigrants or the M.P's salaries .....

People who say " are " when they mean our.

Them instead of those--Glenn Hoddle has this defect.

Loose instead of lose.
