The term "sh**house" in football

Mourinho. Robertson has got away with a few snidey challenges over the years.
 
Yes, I agree, $hithouse, as in coward. I was a bit of a $hithouse last week because I couldn’t watch Kyle Walkers penalty in the Supercup penalty shoot-out:)
 
Clearly, in the last 5 years or so, use of this term has been popularised in certain parts of the media as referring to someone who employs 'the dark arts' or is some sort or master manipulator or referees.

E.g. "Simeone is the king of the shithouses."

But we all know that for decades the only people in football being referred to as shithouses were those that ducked out of tackles or didn't fancy a bit of the physical stuff against a big defender.

As is "Samaras, you fucking shithouse!"

Simeone is about as far removed from a true shithouse as you can get. A true shithouse would be, well, shitting it faced with the prospect of coming up against Simeone and his ilk on the pitch..

Are you with me or against me?
I see your point but language constantly evolves and changes.

That’s not a particularly good thing though. It’s usually because thick cunts don’t understand what words mean and have the vocabulary of a six year old.

I’d call it regressing rather than evolving.
