Does calling the capital one cup the carling cup make you a hipster?

She definitely hasn't.

Dules, you ever heard of La candycane?

y va marquer

It's the quick pause that a player in possession takes as he thinks and surveys the pitch before deciding where to play his next ball?
Maybe 🙂

What is la candycane?

The vehicle being chased by rusty nail in road kill/joyride?

Latest hip thing to talk about is a double pivot in midfield

Drop that into a convo and you'll be we'll respected

"Hmmm seeing as I can't get a girlfriend how about we talk about football? Wonder if Spain will use busquets and javi Martinez as a double pivot in brazil next summer?"

Gazza M

i remember when the phrase tiki taka was considered hipster-ish.

double pivot is so 1998, which probably does make it hipstery.

Biggus

I'm from the 1990's, does that make me ultra-hip?

lorddulaarsenal

Nah just means you'll need a new hip soon grandad 😆

Biggus

Very good......Very good.....

You're not so far behind me.

lorddulaarsenal

True. I'm next in line for middle agedness now that burnsy n y va have hurtled through that gate

Biggus

I'm aging like a fine wine.

Burnwinter

Yep, fuck working weekends. Fortunately had Monday off for a public (or as you Eeenglish peeg-dergs call it, a "bank") holiday.

Might be worth the dinero to buy a camera I've had my eye on.
