Jackaglory

Created by: HerOralHighness

Pronunciation: Jack - a - glory

Sentence: sometimes the team spokesman begins to believe his own bull-shite. When this happens, we can forget a brief post match 'gloatament' (gloat & statement) as is normal, and find ourselves listening to a Jackaglory of epic proportions.

Etymology: a mix of glory & jackanory (kids programme where celebs read a story in a way that could hold the attention of even the most restless of kids). You can sometimes stop a fabulist in their tracks by butting in with the phrase 'tell us a story, Jackanory'
