You have 1.4k posts in under 8 months and you’re telling me to touch grass 😂😂
Amounts of posts on a messageboard don't =/= the amount of grass you touch when we are connected to the internet 24 hours a day
 
Anyhoo...back to the thread.

I had heard of McAtee but didn't know anything about him or how good he could be for our club.......was exactly the same this time last your about MGW
 



I still don't know what sander berge is like,apparently we will all see how good he is when he goes to team that mould everything around him and are better than us .....
 
What’s your stance on sneks?!
I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone pronounce Snake as Snek. Which is odd in a way because most Sheffielders would say ‘shek” for shake. Maybe because a sneck is an old word for a door latch, hence the term ‘sneck lifter’ for someone who’s banging at the pub door at opening time. I think. (Covid has fucked my brain or I’m in the first stages of early onset).

Beak, pronounced be-ak. As in “tha mother’s gorra beak like thi grandad’s”
 
In answer to the original question title.
A football is round
Rugby ball is a Prolate Spheroid
Judging from a pass from midfield last Monday
"Any which way you can"
Doubt that will clarify anything much....
 
Mitre multiplex, ultimax or Premier League (which I think was an ultimax variation). End of.
 
A fair guide as to whether one has Ball Knowledge or not:

Knew how great MGW would be = has Ball Knowledge

Didn't know = lacks Ball Knowledge

Knows little about McAtee = forgivable
I thought MGW would be injured all season 🤷🏻‍♂️

Be-uk was the pronunciation in our house so not far off.

I’ll stand by my use of sneck for nose

Yeah, be-uk is probably closer. I’ve never heard sneck for nose as far as I can remember. Neb, obviously, my mate would occasionally, for no particular reason, call me Prickneb. (Not just me in fairness, it was one of his favourite insults).
 
McAtee's showings so far are unbelievably poor. I'd terminate loan in Jan and use the available loan space on someone else.

Balls are being passed to his feet and he's miscontrolling the ball or letting it go past him.

Maybe it's nerves but if you can't control a ball that's being played to your feet then you're just not good enough.

He might go on and do some amazing things with City in the future but maybe he just needs those world class players around him for him to excel.

Seems an odd one to pick out. He's a kid, he needs a run of games. He hasn't had it yet.
It looks like Berge is now going to be crocked for the foreseeable so McAtee may well get his chance. Let's see what he's about after half a dozen 60+ mins appearances.
