hoofball
 n.— «From the kick-off, Simpson delivered a long, old-fashioned ball to Alexander deep on the left-wing. The Orient crowd groaned (Hoofball again?) but Gary controlled, made the bye-line and sent over a low cross which goalkeeper Higgs dived to cut out.» —“Cheltenham Town 1 Leyton Orient 1″ by Mark Waters O-Net Aug. 7, 2005.
