Huh? Doubled up? Can we have a report in the Queens English please.
I'm particularly sensitive because Leeds new kickball manager is now a PT teacher from the US who insists on using phrases like "we need to outpoint Burnley" and being "locked into the league"
sure...3x2=6 or 3 doubled is six. Doubled up is a common term in the Great White North when a team wins or loses by scores such as 4-2, 6-3, 8-4 (more usually in baseball and hockey) or 28-14, 42-21 in CFL football.
I don't know what the guy from the U.S. is talking about. Obviously, he does not understand the Queen's English!
We make our world significant by the courage of our questions and by the depths of our answers.
