Pandering to ignorant Americans...it's a baseball reference. *sigh*

What does it mean ?
It's a baseball reference...don't know if it'll translate...but the best catchers who stop balls getting to the backstop are referred to as backstops.
The actual backstop is a fence that prevents the ball from going into the stands.
Highly doubt it will translate.

Udderly delicious
Used to have backstops in schoolboy cricket because the wicketkeeper &/or bowler were so poor that they needed someone way behind the keeper to hoover up the wayward/missed deliveries. I suspect the Yanks borrowed that term from cricket?
Anyway, Mr Howard didn't impart much feeling of security in me last night. I can understand why RM wont drop him as it will seem like pandering to the fans, but he (Howard) does my head in

the ministry of funny walks manoeuvre of goalkeeping, John Cleese would be proud of him the goose step with jazz hands thrown in , imagine if he had pulled that off, well not really it was never going to work, but give him a 6 for artistic interpretation
To be fair you wouldn't blame him if he turned around and booted it into the roof of the net himself
Howard's contract still won't be up then, so definitely not
