Thanks pal but behind those thoughts there is a little knowledge of what I am talking about though some is crap i admit.

I hold a uefa b coaching licence,am a qualified and active referee and a qualified sports phycologist specialising in football.All of which means jack all when it comes to supporting your own team and the emotions that brings.

Qualified referee? Talk about shooting yourself in the foot!

The word 'feck' is a common Irish expression which is NOT considered to be anything other than a mild expression of annoyance, and although it is accepted by some that it was derived from an original Anglo-Saxon expletive, many consider that its roots were quite possibly Scottish, and it may well originate from the same source that gives us 'feckless'. As a part-Irish, part-Scottish, part-Dutch inhabitant of this board, I feel justified in resorting to its use on occasion - consider it as part of my heritage.

With respect to your statement suggesting that 'feck' is '...not even the real word' - it most definitely IS included in the Oxford English Dictionary, and has been for many years. It is what is known as a 'minced oath' - rather like saying 'sugar' instead of 'bugger'. So you see, Strange yearnings, in your rush to be clever, you have really just shot yourself in the foot.

I hope it fecking hurts. ;)

Newsflash :- Eddie van MacO'mara is at last unmasked as he Phantom Flan Flinger. He is now a leading suspect in the Phantom Raspberry Blower of Old London Town.case.

Keogh's errors are largely when he gets the ball stuck between his feet and can't adjust. He actually passes the ball more efficiently when he is running with it. It's Forsyth who has lapses and passes the ball to the opposition or kicks it into Row F when he tries to cross it. Keogh's passing isn't bad.

His passes look awkward and are often blasted at the full backs from about 10 yards once he has run himself into trouble and panics.

Strangely enough, when we checked in at our hotel last week, the receptionist was quite surprised to meet an 'English' couple with a 'Dutch' surname.

Excellent post Beagle. I am impressed with your knowledge as I have seen in your previous posts. My joke was simply a Beagle joke, nothing else. I love this forum, there is a bit of everythinhg. I have been a Derby fan since the first year of Brian Clough but I still could not pick the team for wednesday or for Bolton. Sometimes, the more that I think that I know, the more I realise how little I know.It is  a  very interesting discipline that you are qualified in, Sports Psychology. I would be very interested in hearing your views about the last thirteen games of last season. You must have insights that the rest of us do not have. I think all successful sports people get the sports psychology side of it right. Certainly no offence intended Beagle. My profuse  apologies in any case. I am usually at the U21 games if you ever get along to them. Cheers mate

Did her surprise lead her to use a minced oath in her exclamation or was it a straight up "You're English?? F..king hell would never have guessed!" :D

I take it all back. Next time I come that way we can go feed the ducks. If you come down here we can fight off the seagulls and any other birds that might be attracted to us. 

I think it will just be the seagulls. I could take you rowing underneath the weeping willows but keep your hands off my rollocks.

A Sheff United fan I speak to has also just confirmed Keogh was at the Newcastle game. Looks like he's off then, unless he was just visiting Simmo or someone like that :(

He's now saying he was sat speaking to Coutts for most of the match so maybe he was just visiting him. There's still hope! :lol:

Eddie, you are a very informed poster on here. Top quality as always. Some great insights. Your speed of posting with very accurate answers reveals your breadth of knowledge. Always a pleasure to read your stuff. i looked up the 'Feck' thing and you are spot on as always. I too have a bit of Irish background in my ancestry. COYR

So you could qualify for Hplland and England then. Get down to the England camp at Burton and we will see what you can do mate.

Keogh day off so he can do what he like though.

At drinking, perhaps.

I did give the minibar a serious seeing-to when we got back from the pub last night.
