The bluffers guide to football

[BrilloPad]

The time I joined last month has quite a football culture. In fact they have pointed out that the last few who lefdt did not like football.

I suppose therefore that stating the truth (footballers are overpaid shirtlifters) will not go down well.

How can I bluff my way through this?

Just say "Looks like Man U will do it again, can you believe it, the jammy fec-kers" and give a disgusted look.

That will work.

Am I supposed to dislike Man United then? That sounds reasonable as I dislike all footballers.

Although you are a southerner and lots of ManU fans are from your neck of the woods...

Christ, I was married to a City fan for way too long

Don't bluff. I just say to them 'footballers are overpaid shirtlifters' and leave it at that.

Arse Shaving? What's that then?

Isn't it a team of 11 overpaid shirtlifters from London?

Are you trying to get my contract terminated?
