There was a bloke who used to sit behind me in East Stand Upper whose match 
vocabularly consisted almost exclusivley of "cabbage him " followed by the name 
of the Leeds midfielder \ defender about to make the tackle, generally followed 
by "it would have been a free hit" when the said player did not in fact 
'cabbage' our opponent.
I assumed that it meant 'cripple' him - a cabbage being a derogatory term for a 
cripple (or handicapped person for the pc brigade!) 
 
Also the phrase my "head was cabbaged" is a term I have heard used by people 
describing their level of inebriation

This is a new one for me.  Can anyone shed a light on how someone gets 
"cabbaged".  I can't shake this vision of young enoch sneaking up
behind 
defenders with a vegetable behind his back.

BTW Betty, what ever happened to the list glossary?
