Hands off Steve Cooper
Today’s early fixture is “Manchester City” v “Newcastle United”, or:
El Fashico
El Lashico
El Cashico
El Plastico
El Gasico
El Crassico
El Trashico
El Financeico
El Undemocratico
El Autocratico.
Like “Manchester City” financial records, delete as appropriate.
I’m bored so here are some other -icos I’ve decided to make up.
Rangers v Linfield - El Sashico
Liverpool 1982 v Portugal 1984 - El Tacheico
Holland v Morocco - El Hashico
Any Indian league match - El Casteico
Google v Microsoft - El Cacheico
Dublin v Galway - El Traffico
That’s what they call the LA Derby in the MLS
El Rehashico
“Manchester City” v Bournemouth - El Mismatchico or El Thrashico.
You are limiting yourself with the ico. Much like ever scandal has to end in “gate” for some reason.
Galway vs Wicklow could be called the Battle of the Aughrims.
Kildare vs Meath, the Dubarbs
Cork vs Antrim, Royalists Rumble
Laois vs Offaly, the inbetweeners
Scotland vs Wales, the pretenders to leave the throne
Beautiful from Bernardo Silva
I’m having El Gasico for when PSG and whoever Qatar buy next play
The Clare county hurling final: El Latchiko.
Another defeat to nil coming up here for Eddie Howe.
The Angel Of The North is toppling over.
Liverpool v Everton, El Crapico
I suppose this would be El Oil&Gasico.
Newcastle have completely run out of steam it would seem.
Joelinton and wilson missed sitters at 1-0 . Howe made them fucking solid. They still are to be fair but they have very little going for them up front.
They’ve drawn too many matches
Fact. If they’d won more they’d be higher up the table
I think a better way would be to invent trophies for particular match ups, like they do in rugby.
Most of the names and back stories of these new rugby trophies for particular matches were thought up when bored alickadoos donned cloaks on Friday nights, downed bottles of sherry and went on the INTERNET.
Theyve only scored 3 league goals this year apparently!
They’ll be a different propostion next year when they buy Mbappe
Stuck in an Arabian desert of a goal drought.
