"It's a high ball. It's a dropping ball".

I feel this type of commentary makes it too easy for us. We can surely presume that a high ball will eventually drop in time.

corrinshego thats from the george best autobiography, there was one player on his team that was playing terrible and he got injured, the trainer ran onto the pitch to check on him and he shouted back to the manager "he doesn't know who he is" to which the manager replied "TELL HIM HE'S F***** PELE"

During an inter-county match somewhere in Claire, one particular player was not exactly playing his best game, in fact he was hardly playing at all! About ten mins after the start of the second half a completely frustrated manager gave up and shouted from the side-line "Johnny, warm up you're coming off".

Play stalled for a few moments while the rest of the players tried to stop laughing.

I hate this one because every one says it. They ask the person what position they play and before the person even has time to answer they shout out 'Left Back..(*slight pause) In The Changing Rooms' Good that really gets me going. And to make matters worse they are in stitches laughing at their own jokes
