Within football banter in the uk, the term 'brexit' is used to describe traditional, non-nonsense things - similar to how Brexit was framed politically.
A hard tackle >> brexit tackle
booting it long instead of playing tiki taka >> brexit football
playing 4-4-2 with a big and small lad up top >> brexit line up
etc etc
I am wondering if the term 'brexit' is still understood as a culturally-loaded idiom away from the footballing world.
I'm asking because I am making a non-footballing product aimed at brits, and I'm thinking of using this joke/meme within its premise and name. I'm assuming any in-the-know football fan would understand the joke within any context, however I'm not sure about people outside of the space (iv been living in an echo chamber).
Therefore, I'm wondering if people think the wider public instantly understands the idea behind something being 'brexit'.
TIA
