Passing! A New Phenomenon in Football

They're all talking about it!  In the media, football pundits, players and managers from the Premier League down to the Blue Square Conference. It's called PASSING!!!
And to quote some well known names in the game:
"They're a good team, they pass the ball ..." Jock Strap, loin trainer with Thalidonia MilkThistle.
"We knew we were up against it, when they started passing ..."  Alf Testerone, Assistant Gender-Assignment, Coach of Baby Gravy Ejactulated.
"Our players we're confused, the opposition began to pass, and we didn't know what to do ..." Fleb Nox-Pox,  Manager of Veneral NSU Rovers.
This amazing new skill, has revolutionised the game, but many of our senior supporters think it's just a passing fad, and the game will revert back to kicking the ball and diving when a player uses sarcasm on another.
Thank you to our intrepid and brave CFTS under-cover team at FA headquarters who have uncovered this new technique in our game of football. FIFA have not yet sanctioned this untried method.
