Favourite Cobblers Awls.

Can't remember seeing this before - so here goes. Your favourite mangled words of wisdom with, if possible, the guilty party.

I'll start with two:

"Nobody in football should be called a genius. A genius is a guy like Norman Einstein". (Joe Theisman, American footballer)

"Sure, there have been injuries and deaths in Boxing - but none of them serious".
Alan Minter.

My favourite was an American boxer who was being interviewed after his latest fight .

He had fought about 6 or 7 times in close order and the interviewer asked what kind of state he was in after that and he said it was in Nevada.

Classic.

A few Murryisms

The lead car is unique, except for the one behind it which is identical.

And now, excuse me while I interrupt myself.

There's nothing wrong with the car except that it's on fire.

I don't make mistakes. I make prophecies which immediately turn out to be wrong.

That's history. I say history because it happened in the past.

"We must have had 99per cent of the match, it was the other 3 per cent that cost us".
Ruud Gullit. (I think it was something in the translation from Dutch to English, to be fair)
