Tifo is a verb meaning "I support", but has been appropriated as a noun to mean banners, flags and supporter displays in stadiums. I've given up on this as it's crept in to print media in America but everyone should know where it came from.

Kit or uniform. Shirt for the the shirt part. Jersey if it is an actual jersey

Police and school children wear uniforms. Footballers do not.

I might be able to allow uniform for the referee, as it's a hated position of authority. But ultimately even kids wear a PE kit not a uniform when doing sports at school.


Ps. Is it possible offside stole maths' s?edit: maybe tapped up rather than stole?

Total Football (Dutch: totaalvoetbal) is the label given to an influential tactical theory of football in which any outfield player can take over the role of any other player in a team. It was pioneered by Dutch football club Ajax from 1965 to 1973, and further used by the Netherlands National Football Team in the 1974 FIFA World Cup. It was invented by Rinus Michels, who was the coach of both Ajax and the Netherlands national team at the time.
