Megs!
« on: March 29, 2008, 10:12:39 PM »
Now then, there are many different connotations of the old nutmeg, with the coup de ville being a clean push through the legs, with a call as it happens, and a collect on the other side.

But, whilst that is a true 'meg', the following enquiries must be made:

If you don't call it, does it count? Can you brag about it later?
If you call it late, does it count?
If you don't mean it, can you call it?
If you don't collect it, and concede posession, does it count?
If you use it to pass to a teammate successfully, is that OK?
If it clips a leg on the way through, does it count?



Plus, anyone who shouts 'Nuts!' needs to be locked in a sealed room and force-fed the e-bola virus :wave
You sure you want to do this?

I hope you like the taste of bleu cheese.

one thing that as botherd me about this "nuts" or "megs" thing,
When Sir King Kenny was asked about "nuts" or "megs" he said that you dont shout any of them, you shout nutmegged!, Rodney Marsh and Charlie George all said the same thing, so for me anybody who says "nuts" or "megs" need to be locked up, you cant argue with them 3 players.

No to "nuts" or "megs"
Yes to "Nutmegged"

I don't agree with the others saying it 'counts' when you concede possession, put the ball thru the legs, take the piss and you/your team still has to have the ball.
eh

If you lose the ball it doesnt count, you may as well have kicked it out of play or straight to an opponent.

The whole point is that you are in control enough to get the ball afterwards, otherwise any old hacker could spend their time blasting it through the opponents legs!!

If you don't call it, does it count? Can you brag about it later?

Yes. Talent doesn't need to brag (which probably explains why I'd have to scream it through a megaphone!)

If you call it late, does it count?

No.

If you don't mean it, can you call it?

Yes, because its outrageous luck, which should also be celebrated :)

If you don't collect it, and concede possession, does it count?

No, but if you win the ball back at least you dont look like a twat!

If you use it to pass to a teammate successfully, is that OK?

Yes, but you should reserve the right to hold the moral high ground if said team mate then fucks up the move by dribbling the ball out for a goal kick from 25 yards.

If it clips a leg on the way through, does it count?

Yes. Any part of the body apart from the hand/arm (unless you're the keeper of course, in which case you can roll the ball through the opposition players legs).

I'd like to add a question

Does singing 'Nuts oh hazel nuts' in celebration make you look like a wanker or make it even more sickening and therefore better?

I always call megs when I see a player megged. They don't like it, what with me taking the piss out of them and being the ref ;) It's great!

But, whilst that is a true 'meg', the following enquiries must be made:

If you don't call it, does it count? Can you brag about it later?  No, if you don't call it, it may aswell not have happened. The player who got megged might think he got away with it
If you call it late, does it count? Yes, but it takes the edge away from it a little bit. Plus i don't know why you would call it late  :D
If you don't mean it, can you call it?  Yes, this makes it even better. The opponent was so bad that you didn't even mean to nutmeg them but you still did.
If you don't collect it, and concede posession, does it count? Yes. It's still embarassing for the opponent and it still went through their legs.
If you use it to pass to a teammate successfully, is that OK? Yes
If it clips a leg on the way through, does it count? No
And i prefer "nuts" to "megs"  ;)

If you get megged by a whole player, does it count double?

You sure you want to do this?
