Jaggernaut Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 Bobby Charlton writes that he used it many years ago when a journalist interviewed him and asked him how Old Trafford made him feel. So, maybe he's the originator, at least when the term is used for football grounds. Another interesting snippet from the book: Ferguson doesn't let his players relax with golf during the build-up to a match, as it slows them down physically and mentally. Hope Jackie reads this!

I'm sure that some club(s) have banned players from golf as.....it's an injury risk? Can't remember for sure, but could it have been Souness while at Ibrox?
