No flobbers.

[knowsnowt]

Watching tonight's game I've noticed a distinct lack of any of our players to deliver a good wad of goz onto the pitch. Seems since Egan left we don't have anyone that routinely gozzes on the pitch.
Is it a dying art? And do you miss gozzing flobbers?

To be fair it would have livened things up a bit.

Yes, hugely. Even apart from Deano's iconic 'unleash a 25 yarder into the top corner then unleash a ten yard flob' celebration v Man City, grebbing also gives the perfect chance for it going wrong just as the camera pans onto the player, which was always a great moment.

I also miss the much more skilful and hard earned snotting out of one nostril, which depended on position and relative toughness (ie it had to be a Whitehurst not a Starbuck to make sense)

I'd forgotten all about the snotting!
The game really has gone to shit over the last decade hasn't it.
Pundits always talk about leaving every last ounce out there on the pitch, but if you weigh up the snot and goz that's missing now the pitch must be around 3kg lighter than it used to be back in the golden years. :/

I’ve played in a game against a team who had mostly been on a stag night the night before and three had puked up in the warm up. One of the penalty boxes was a no go area in the second half.

tell you what you don’t see enough of these days.

Player on the front stick hand around the post whilst the other hands index finger blocks a nostril and clears the contents of their sinus onto the grass

Sky Tv have destroyed all bodily fluid opportunities due to excessive cameras . Players can’t even have a semi on in these woke times sadly

And then the stupid bastards roll about in it either fake injured or a goal celebration. Next day “I’m think I’m getting a Cold”. I wonder why????? Might as well give each other a French kiss during the game.

We apologise for that gozz, and to anyone who is offended. We strive to do better.

When Mo Farah crossed the line to win his Olympic gold in 2012, the American bloke he’d just beaten deposited a particularly revolting flobber on the track. And when Farah dropped to the floor in an exhausted celebration, he was inches from rolling in it.

It’s all I remember about the race, and it still puts me about when I see the replays.

Times change.

There was no meed to water the pitch during halftime in the 80's, and I can't remember the last time i saw a little fella with a fork and a bucket of sand.

It's a shame, but I'm sure Rudi Voller sleeps a little easier.

That one bloke in the boozer who gets up close in your face talking and little bits of spit land on your face. You have to keep composure as if your listening but keep secretly wiping the droplets off your face and your lips while acting like it's best story you've ever heard.

So. It's the gaps in my teeth.
