Re. Fixture changes and scheduling and people saying "They should think about the fans"

Well, the game sold out to TV a good while ago, and TV will continue to dictate, hence another pointless saying to add to the collection.

When, and more importantly why, was the 'Up and Under' replaced by the 'Bomb' ?

Come on ! It's not a bomb , it's a bloody rugby ball

Did anybody ever see one explode ?

No ?

A very silly saying, I rest my case

And then the "bomb" is "diffused" in-goal!

Ref saying "both feet on the line" to a goal line defence, compared to the number of players that actually do it, yet aren't penalised.

With us being the better side these days, we are licking our lips at inflicting more misery on Wire in the coming derby. I expect a fairly straight forward win.

One said on Sky tonight, that gets said a lot is "xx points to the good".

That could be an Eddie/Stevoism though.

Another Stevo one he's brought from the Aussies

"Well, the coach will be doing the rounds of the kitchen"

I've asked people from The Oxford English Dictionary, Wise Men, Susie Dent from Countdown and that "lady's front pocket" Joey Essex, and none of them could come up with an explaination

The arm wrestle....well, I've just a game of rugby, and I didn't see two American men sat at a table in lumberjack shirts and Stetsons, holding each others hands, whilst the other hand holds on to a pole, being surrounded by similarly dressed Americans, drinking "beer".

Winning the floor
I've heard of people winning TV's, holidays of a lifetime, a car, cash, an evening with Maria Whittaker, but never the floor.

My ex's family, Irish descent, used that term quite a bit and I took it to mean getting berated by the woman of the house if for example you'd stayed out a little later than you should after work and dinner was ruined.....probably explains why she's my ex ha ha
