| 1639231837666156544 | Names and numbers have apparently "become part of the fabric of the Premier League". So @FootballCliches has ranked all 28 fonts seen since 1993 - from unwarranted italics and market stall knock-offs, to tasteful outlines, and rare 3D-effects. https://t.co/vFd2wJqoA4 | 4 |
| 1638594886143287329 | @FootballCliches In the last five minutes on TalkSPORT Tim Sherwood has just launched an extraordinary rant accusing ‘foreign managers’ of ‘brainwashing’ players with ‘nonsense’ terms like ‘low block’ and ‘mid block’… Apparently ‘no one pressed him harder than Ian Rush’… | 3 |

| 1638847966101266433 | Today's @FootballCliches pod features a truly astonishing instance of 'footballers names unexpectedly popping up in TV shows' Even better than Sven Botman in Frasier, for me https://t.co/7VBtREkWmn | 2 |
| 1638241084303110157 | @FootballCliches adding to your 'fictional football shirt' chat - 3 years ago I bought an Escape to Victory Allies shirt from shop in Malaga called Cooligans (for a fairly reasonable €35 compared to the other high prices you were quoting). Is fictional POW camp shirts a step up? https://t.co/6MaEThK8Xp | 1 |
