popular myths and misconceptions

I have a feeling this thread has already been done a couple of years ago but meh

1. stoke's season runs november to february, they only play evening games and the weather in stoke is always shite

I mean seriously it seems to me that the 90% of football fans think the barometer for greatness is how well a player performs against stoke away on a rainy winters night

please add

I live there, and often I've left for the game and it's been pissing down, and have dressed accordingly, only to arrive in a Manchester that's bathed in sunshine,looking like someone on an Oasis pilgrimage. I don't know if there are any stats to back it up but I swear it rains more in the Potteries than in Greater Manchester.

2. City struggle to score/ win/ play as a cohesive unit (delete as appropriate) unless Tevez plays

3. If Everton didnt have a slow start every season, they would get into Europe, the CL or win the league... utter bollocks that gets trotted out when they win their last 2 meaningless games

The one that pisses me off all the time, and it was mentioned in the Arsenal commentary against Newcastle on saturday, was the scorpion kick save by Rene Higuita's. The ref had already blown for offside, he should have been booked!!

Yep, and I'm not taking the piss on this, "Man Has Landed On The Moon", anyone who knows owt about physics knows that this didn't happen!! Scary should keep it to football, less chance of dying accidentally in a car crash!!
