Piggy in the middle??

Was watching the carling cup and heard that. We call it monkey in the middle. The little things just get to me

I don't get any of this thread. :confused:

I think the OP is trying to say they call 'piggy in the middle' 'monkey in the middle' across the pond.

I think, in America, piggy in the middle, is called monkey in the middle lol.

I'd say it's your tactics, but it's your language really

monkey.. piggy.... its mostly the same

but bacon obviously wins...

You learn something every day.

y'see i think a monkey 'in the middle' would be quite formidable at ball retrieving

where as a pig...im show boating to be honest

it's the little things that get me. thats just one of a few that i laugh at... but don't get me wrong... i heard it watching english soccer not MLS.. You couldn't pay me to watch that stuff.

Tevez does look more simian than porcine so maybe the American term is apt in this instance.

monkey in the middle being used in the sense of a black player in the middle would create a lot of problem, quite frankly im fed up of everyone playing the race card but this i can understand it could be a very big problem SI have got it spot on

Maybe Peter Reid is a cult figure in the US and they gave him his own saying.

Bojan11 is simply asking for attention. Ignore him. They usually go away after a while.

The OP didn't have a question. He already knew that both terms meant the same thing. He was commenting on it.

If you read my previous posts on this thread, you will see I also helped someone else because they didn't know what the OP was talking about.

I've seen several of your posts on seperate threads, and let me tell you, your posting standard is low. I don't need to try and get my post count up. Neither do I post uselessly like you. I managed to get my post count up to what it is by posting helpful comments, discussing things with people, and being a proper member of this forum.

I suggest you take a long hard look at the content of your posts in future.

it doesnt matter, just dont reply to each other, its not worth the arguing

if you think about it america has several phrases to replace ours, things like sophie's choice - hobson's choice etc

I am constantly astonished at the ability of some posters to take a simple topic and twist it out of recognition.:confused:

Lets also leave the moderation of the forums to the Mods please.

P.S to the OP-

Pig in the middle was also a training schedule that was used in one of the previous versions of the game, so it will be familiar in a game sense to some and not to others.
