Annoying footballing rejoinders to greetings/farewells etc

[duncanmckenziedoughnuts]

This is a long-standing, perma-annoying (to friends and family) habit of mine. As in

So, think on...Freddie Rincon
Cheers, Stephen Pears (newly Tyrone Mears)
Same goes, Danny Rose
Ok dokey, Graham Oakley (might be where it all started)
Sees ya later, Robbie Slater

Am I insane/a bell-end or do others do this?

[KGR]

Okey dokey was always Tommy Coakley in my hood bro'.

[Jah Womble]

Not quite the same thing, but I've recently wheeled-out 'Junior' as pseudo-rhyming slang for 'toilet' (ie, the 'Junior Hoilett').

In its favour, his surname represents pretty much the only word that actually rhymes with 'toilet'; to its detriment, almost nobody else knows what the f*** I'm on about.

[Stumpy Pepys]

Am I insane/a bell-end or do others do this?

I think it's just you.

You could extend this to other languages.

Au revoir, Stephen Carr
Wiedersehen, Leighton Baines

[N est à?]

Am I insane/a bell-end or do others do this?

It's not an either/or question, dunc.

Think twice, Pat Rice
'Av a banana, Simon Garner

[N est à?]

Nice to have seen ya, Mirandhina

[Kevin S]

Chop-chop, Jürgen Klopp

[N est à?]

Wilco, Mick Trebilcock

[Kevin S]

Roger that, David Platt

[N est à?]

Militarist dominated pre-war Japanese governments heavily promoted the ultra-nationalist ideology of state Shinto, Scott Minto

"Exactly, Derek Fazackerley" was a favourite among a few of my friends, though stretching the point linguistically.

I'd know what you meant. "Junior Hoilett, rhymes with toilet" is his full name in our house.

[Sits]

Gaëtan Bong, bang a gong, right on

Edit: of course, it can't be a rejoinder if it's before his name. Bud sod it.

After how he left Blackburn, he has always been Junior Shithouse in our home.

It's not only greeting or farewells; just any question or statement really. A bloke at work back in 1997/8 used to get "what's the story, Boring Tory?" (ripped from some magazine headline I think) sang to him, usually on a Monday from everyone on the shop floor since he read the Daily Express (only Mirror or Star was acceptable to them lads.)
Fancy a brew, Samassi Abou?
Owt from the offy, Big Bill Roffey?
Blaze up the skunk, Garry Monk
Fill up the needle, Peter Beadle

[Jah Womble]

'Junior Shithouse' sounds like it ought to be a kids' TV programme from the 1970s.

[Felicity, I guess so]

So, think on...Freddie Rincon

Always loved his name...then he signed for Napoli!

Don't have one to add, but we do sing 'Freddie Rincon' along to a particular song on a latin music compil in our house, cos it scans

[ad hoc]

In Carlton Palmer's autobiography (which I've just reviewed for WSC), he amusedly mentions going into a bar in Shanghai and hearing someone sing "We've got Carlton Palmer, he smokes marijuana"

[Stumpy Pepys]

Be seeing you, Peter Ndlovu

[Benjm]

See you in hell, Colin Bell
Better keep looking over your shoulder, Erwin Mulder

[gjt]

It's not an either/or question, dunc.

Think twice, Pat Rice
'Av a banana, Simon Garner

or for younger readers/Liverpool fans: "'Av a banana, Adam Lallana"

[Stumpy Pepys]

Tinkety Tonk, Michel Vonk

[Stumpy Pepys]

Merci et adieu, Freddy Adu
Sayonara, Roger Palmer
Guten Morgen, Trevor Morgan

[3 Colours Red]

Ciao for now, Pat van den Hauwe.

[tracteurgarcon]

In a while, Nobby Stiles

[tracteurgarcon]

See you anon, Collins John
