Fisting eachother

[Birdwell Blade]

How is it more hygienic when the players fist each other, instead of shaking hands?

 

[blade_ben]

Because ain’t touching your face with your finger tips/palms

 

[ZoneManWilf]

Fisting each other is definitely less hygienic than shaking hands.

Fist bumps however, are better.

 

[Balham]

How long until this ends up in the Pig & Truffle?

 

[Birdwell Blade]

Why not just don’t do anything?

 

[Birdwell Blade]

I just don’t see why people need to touch each other

 

[Birdwell Blade]

If you imagine how much fisting goes off each match day, a couple of times a week? Players fisting each other over and over and over.

I’m not sure what people find funny about it, there could be serious risks from repeated fisting.

Is somebody going to explain to Birdwell what fisting means?

 

[Birdwell Blade]

Now OConnell and Fleck are injured, the last thing we need is a player getting the virus from fisting. It’s non-essential contact. I get tackling is part of the game, fair enough, but fisting?

If it’s got another meaning or is Cockney rhyming slang or whatever I’m not sure. I just think the FA should come out and say “no fisting” before someone suffers.

 

[Wards]

Left hand only and we’re all good

I once fisted a bird from Monk Bretton on a night out in Barnsley, I reckon a wellie boot would've had turning room in her!
Funny the things you remember years later.

A single fist is a bit naff though go all in on it and do .

 

[Cerberus Blade]

This thread disappoints me, it isn't about what I thought it was going to be about.

Because you don't pick things up with your fist. You don't pick your nose or wipe your arse with your fist.

I also didn't type this with my fist... and my keyboard needs a dust in all fairness.

Watching Pep and Arteta arm bump seemed kinda pointless when Pep proceeded to then pat Arteta on his back.

 

[SouthEssexBlade]

Maybe they should just limit it to a finger? The fewer digits involved the better. Maybe Birdwell Blade should start a new football campaign, "Fingering not fisting!"

 

[Birdwell Blade]

I don’t think some of you are taking my point seriously so think about this scenario.

Dean Henderson goes home to his girlfriend (if he has one) who has the virus and he catches it, not much can be done about that.

However Henderson then goes into training and as he’s walking in, fists every other player.

A handful of players then get COVID and we have to play the youth team or whatever and miss out on Europe. All through unnecessary fisting.

I know I wouldn’t be happy

I wouldn’t be happy with being fisted, pandemic or not. But that’s just me.....

Is Henderson fisting all the other players while wearing his Gloves through?

I get that it might be LESS risky to fist someone, but there is still a risk. What if the person rubbed something on the back of one hand using the palm of the other, then fisted someone?

I’d just stop it altogether.

Yeh I chose the wrong player really. I’ll sub Henderson for Sharp, he can be the fister in the scenario.

 

[Sean Thornton]

This is like a poor mans Finbarr Saunders skit.....

 

[Klaatu Barada Nikto]

So sharp is fisting all the other players. I wouldn’t worry about it. He’s very good in the box after all
