A sports proverb used mostly within UK football whose definition is still argued about.

It is thought to mean a good performance but one littered with mistakes that would be punished by a better quality opposition

Lindsay Fox's staircase

The mythical staircase rumoured to have caused the Victorian Premier Dan Andrews to be badly injured.
FYI it wasn't that - he was beaten to a pulp after being inappropriate with a kid.

Y'know, when I meet Lindsay Fox's staircase, I'd like to buy it several beers.

painting the staircase

Using your gentlemen's relish to slowly paint the legs of a woman starting at her toes and making your way up the staircase as far as you can manage.

Tristian was ever so busy last weekend painting the staircase with his dearly beloved.
