Yes, footballers are indeed a fairly thick bunch - especially some of the the fucking lu-lu's I played with and against over the years.
The manager at one of my clubs (more clubs than Tiger Woods, me) was especially "erudite".
Inspirational monologues such as....
Pre match - "Ah wahnt 110% aff every een o' yiz or yiz kin fuck off"!
Half-time - "Get it soartit oot at the back or yiz kin, kin, kin, fuckin' hingway....."

(still haven't worked that one out)
Tactical - "Midfield - spread oot in a bunch", "Diesel, keep thae high ba's low"
...and regardless of what was happening on the pitch, the Big Man could be relied upon to shout "Howzay?" every 2 to 3 minutes (I belive it's the NE version of "Affside, Ref")
God, I miss playing so much.
