Saw someone in The Office and was looking them up to see what I recognised them from and it turned out it was The Office.

I've had a look in to this report 🧵 You can access the report here: documents.un.org/doc/undoc/gen/…

@thesuperjcast Undone by the North Americans. Had completely forgotten about last year's Dominion match (which I might rewatch because it was outstanding), then same two you seem to have.

How much of a NJPW sicko are you? Screenshot your score below. No cheating. sporcle.com/games/BobCesar…

@dward56 @FootballCliches Left the telly on and didn’t hear the intro to this and thought motd was starting early, then thought I’d gone mad. Then they put this up about the conductor.

@FootballCliches Just a discussion on the first 10 mins of the last night of the Proms on BBC One last night. From the MOTD analysis to the conductor brandishing a red card (left handed I might add)

Recording FOOTBALL CLICHES on Monday, it's the Adjudication Panel and we'll take whatever niche enquiries or obscure observations — on the language of football & beyond — you can throw at us... Tweet/DM/email in... or, for the true Clichés heads, Reddit: reddit.com/r/footballclic…

@FootballCliches I’ve seen a few adverts this week saying that Guinness is the official beer of the premier league. I just don’t think Guinness can be a sponsor of the premier league in 2024. What is the most 2024 premier league beer sponsor and why is it Madri?

"You'll never get a perfect party, it's like a bus, you just take the one that gets you closest to where you want to be 🥰" Okay but this bus won't let my trans friends board, so why would I ever buy a ticket. Tories decimated is great, but this Labour ain't the one either.

@FootballCliches After "Martin Dubravka's Slovakia" on the programme info, is it worse to lead with the names of the pundits? Is this just a convention that ITV always leads with programme hosts? It does imply that Mark Pougatch might be the reason you're tuning in..

Fresh from accidentally staging the nation's biggest live football pub quiz, we're recording the 𝗙𝗢𝗢𝗧𝗕𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗖𝗟𝗜𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗦 #EURO2024 Adjudication Panel today... What have you spotted? What have you heard? What niche football-linguistic questions do you need answering?

@FootballCliches Should "roof of the net" only refer to hitting it from the outside, whereas scoring a goal which hits the top of the net be hitting the "ceiling of the net"?

@FootballCliches A mate had the Denmark Serbia game on his phone last night to keep us posted on developments in case they affected England's place in the group. At one point he said they'd "Hit the roof of the net", making me think there was a goal, but it hit the roof from the outside.

We're recording the 𝗙𝗢𝗢𝗧𝗕𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗖𝗟𝗜𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗦 #EURO2024 Adjudication Panel on Wednesday, so let's have your niche questions, your obscure observations and your mild ridicule of absolutely everyone involved in the England/major tournament news cycle... Get in touch!

@FootballCliches Quick adjudication: this is an egregious use of cracked badge right?

Recording Clichés on Wednesday and it's this month's Listeners' Mesut Haaland Dicks! 🎙️ DM me a 30-second voicenote (& description) about your #1 ultimate niche footballing fetish/aversion — what specific thing gets your goat or floats your boat? We'll pick the best six.

HE DID IT AGAIN

Erm @tomvictor just successfully clapped.

@FootballCliches Can we talk about the fact that Steve McClaren has made it so no one can ever go out in a major moment under an umbrella? No manager will do it on the touchline now, even the prime minister won’t risk the comparison.

I can't face it. I can't face the Westminster football analogies

@ThatChris1209 It's actually everything wrong with modern online recipe blogging.

That's weird, none of this is about studios restricting access as a result of negative reviews or the cheerleading 'if you don't like it then why are you reviewing it' culture that's getting more and more prevalent?

@ThatChris1209 @charmada You know what you did.

@charmada I still think my video statement should've carried more weight

I got relegated from this league last season and had sanctions put on my team by a disciplinary panel so I didn't go up again this year. I'll get him soon.

@Ankaman616 Following in your footsteps by sealing promotion last night. See you in the top league, look forward to some increasingly toxic banter than ends up ruining a wonderful friendship.

Today's results also confirm me as champion of my FPL draft league. I had been promoted into this league after being champion of a different league last season.

@ThatChris1209 It’s fucking not. Hi Betty!

Good evening friends, I’d like to introduce you to Betty. Or possibly Ducky. That’s still up for debate.

@SexyChuckieT Wikipedia agrees.

@FootballCliches At the corner just before half time in the Man City game today I am certain the 5Live commentator said that Ederson "scrundled" the ball away - a lovely mix of scrambled and bundled which felt like it actually fit the urgency of the situation quite well

Over to us! We're recording 𝗙𝗢𝗢𝗧𝗕𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗖𝗟𝗜𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗦 on Monday and we welcome all your correspondence – on football-linguistic peculiarities and irregularities or whatever else you've noticed – for the 𝐴𝑑𝑗𝑢𝑑𝑖𝑐𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑃𝑎𝑛𝑒𝑙...

@FootballCliches Half hour into the England game, Stuart Pearce criticised a Chillwell shot "as a member of the left back's guild". Do guilds work differently to unions? Unions are there to defend together, but guilds are are meetings of artisans and expect high standards of them?

Greetings from the...Parthenon in Nashville, apparently. We're recording 𝗖𝗟𝗜𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗦 on Tuesday - the 𝐴𝑑𝑗𝑢𝑑𝑖𝑐𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑃𝑎𝑛𝑒𝑙 awaits your thoughts on all niche footballing matters, inc. (but not limited to) chief football writers losing their pathetic little minds

@thesuperjcast Also can I ask for Discord link please? Due to Elon I can't start a DM to you.

@thesuperjcast Seen any of the Rev Pro show? Can report that Young Blood looked very decent from there.

Recording tomorrow to talk Fantasticamania and preview New Beginning in Sapporo. Leave questions below.
