I am sure I have my favourite words that I use far too often.

Oh me too, and it wouldn't help me at all for people to nitpick.
The only of those examples that genuinely bothered me was Ardley's "respect the point/opposition". It's OK when used sparingly, or when the situation actually warrants it (like a hard-earned point away at a promotion rival), but he used it way too often to the point where it seemed like he was trying to normalise poor results.

Look and Listen are completely unnecessary and condescending
I have turned off listening to these irritating interviews. Just not good PR and not good for my well-being

Curle used to drive me mad saying "this football club" all the time.
McP was fond of saying "we worked our socks off"
You could tell Fullarton was text book coaching school with his "Controi the controlables"
Nolan "it takes time"

I seem to remember Derry saying "at the minute" a lot.

A lot of managers talk about "getting punished" for not doing this, that or the other. The first that I can remember over-using it was Hoddle, years ago.

Does the guy who does the first interview talk through a tiny speaker! - what with the tinnyness of his voice and him talking at rapid speed, I find it hard to understand what he is saying - most frustrating!!

How's the weather looking in Nottingham today? Plenty of snow oop north.

He (is it Leigh Curtis?) has been doing that a while. Even if he's using a mobile (this is over the internet surely) he could use a proper headset.
And if you're in front of a camera doing a Thomas Frank with the chewing gum isn't a good sight. (ok, he's not as bad but still prefer none, just for 10mins).
