oufc versus liverpool

[wolvercoteyellow]

Just heard Claire O'Neill say that we are playing like Oxford United when we should be playing like Liverpool. Bloody hell!
Oh, wait, it's about climate change. Sorry, couldn't find the right thread.

Just heard that too. My immediate thought was "bloody cheek" but on reflection it was a reasonable analogy and any positive publicity for the club is to be welcomed.

Crap analogy. We're playing like West Ham when we should be playing like Oxford United would be more like it ?

I despise the use of "like" as verbal punctuation.

Typing it is even worse.

Offenders should be birched.

If I ‘like ‘ your post, what happens?

If you’re referring to the OP then surely it means ‘like’ as in ‘similar to or the same as’? Or would you rather they’d have said ‘We are playing Oxford United when we should be playing Liverpool’? - That would make even less sense surely!

 

[Essexyellows]

Now`t in particular, just dislike the over use of the word as verbal punctuation. ?

"Jew no wot I meen?"

To be 'honest wiv you', I agree.

Thanks HY. I couldn't figure out what Essex Yellows was, like, talking about.

I don’t like your tone. It’s not like you to be like this. You won’t like his response!

And she actually said "The UK was playing at Oxford United levels when we really need to be Liverpool” ..................no likes. ?

@HampshireYellow your like`s are contextual. I approve.

What? The analogy was to climate change not football.

You're right!
Sorry for the gratuitous likes.

The irony is that without liverpools behaviour we would have been in Europe. So it should have been we are behaving like Liverpool but should be like Oxford Utd.
