This AFL Trade Period a word has crept into the vernacular to describe a footballer wanting out of his club, and that is 'wantaway'. On AFL Trade Talk readers have been asked what they think of this term. When I first saw it last week I laughed, thinking it was a one-off, but it looks like wantaway is here to stay, replacing 'disillusioned'.
This got me thinking. What are some of the other words / terms used in football and on BF to describe footballers? I'll start the ball rolling:
'Spud' - a term used to describe a former wantaway footballer who has joined an opposition team. Whereas he was once a champion of your club he is now a rubbish footballer, i.e., a spud.
