"Studs up ref!"

[deusex]

Up there with "2 feet ref!"
Can't get through a game without this ridiculous shout!
Who tackles with their studs parallel with the ground?
Not saying a studs showing tackle can't be worthy of a red/yellow card but a perfectly legal tackle can involve me seeing studs too (as is usually the case)

You're mixing up parallel with perpendicular, I think. If the studs are parallel to the ground you're likely to going in with a straight leg.

Ah to clarify I meant the sole of the boot being parallel rather than the studs themselves.
My error, I was not clear in my OP

Oh yes, pretty much any kick will result in some studs showing to some extent!

The one you don't want to see is the charging down a clearance/hoof with a studs showing block.

They are nasty.

Close relation of "high foot ref", even if no one else is anywhere near the foot/ball!

Often heard when there is a clash of feet !
