'Fergie Time'
A tactic used unfairly against any team in order to gain 5-10 minutes injury time in order to force a win.
Used for over a decade and most commonly in domestic competitions
I now want to start a thread called 'Commentator Phrases That Get On Your Wick'

Sorry Sizzle but technically the statement is factually correct.
How about the term "not inteferring with play" (offside rule) - think that began in the 90s.
'Route 1' coined for Wimbledon in the 80s
Cynical foul...Jimmy Hill in the 70s
The sweeper system was well before the 80's it actually started in Switzerland back in the late 50's early 60's.
It just took our media a long time to catch up
