Player names spelt wrong

[mattbianco1]

Sharpe, Clark and Brookes have been serial offenders. We've now got Boldock and I remember a Couttes and McGuire.

Going back through the years who else have we had?

I imagine Dean but he predates the forum.

I can live with first names but not surnames e.g. Martyn/Martin or Kieran/Kieron

 

[Carlton Blade]

Flo/Flu. Nilsen/Nilssen/Nillssen/Nillsen. Hammond/Useless

 

[Grecian2000]

Michael Tongue springs immediately to mind.

 

[aBladeInTheNorthernSky]

Cambell-Rice

 

[Bashar Al Asaba]

'Kilgannon' although pronounced rather than written.

McEverley

Wayne Allinson

Conor Salmon

In short, we have many thick bastards in our ranks.

 

[Jon Bon II]

Moor, Stephens, Evens, Friedman, Lundstrum, Lundstrom, Lunstram etc

 

[Kozzy_is_my_Dad]

Browne
Montgomerie

 

[Jonboy60]

Peskysolidoh.

 

[Bert]

It all started with Nadger Needham

 

[HodgysBrokenThumb]

Before posting about any new player, we should have to write out their name 50 times...without a mistake.

 

[Lmaobob]

Ugo Eccyhog

 

[GroovyBrad]

Matt Killgannon

 

[Newbury Blade]

Sun Jihai. Surname Sun. NOT Jihai. Not just people here, commentators etc as well, refused to give the man (and other Chinese players) the simple respect to get it right.

 

[broomhillblade]

Jacko Connell?

 

[I should coco]

Curran was commonly mispelt as 'Piggy Twat'

 

[Kozzy_is_my_Dad]

Petercatch euro

Some football card from the early 1990s had Dane Whitehouse as Dave Whitehouse.

 

[BLADES1988]

Some football card from the early 1990s had Dane Whitehouse as Dave Whitehouse.

Always thought it was Davy Winehouse myself

 

[BLADES1988]

Its not just the players names that grind my gears, its Brammal, Brammall, Brammel, Bramhall, Bramhorl Bloody Lane

 

[Blade for Sale]

Unless the spelling is so bad as to render the identity a mystery, I think this is probably the largest ratio of vaginal sand to magnitude of problem I've seen in a while. They are footballers not your kids ffs!

 

[mattbianco1]

'Kilgannon' although pronounced rather than written.

McEverley

Wayne Allinson

Conor Salmon

I predict McGoldrick will be a tough one to grasp

 

[William Large]

Its not just players names spelt incorrectly that gets on my tits, but the horrendous grammar used by certain folk. I suppose that it doesn't really matter as there are obviously different levels of education and intellect across the broad spectrum of people using the site..... however certain basics really wind me up. I'm positive this has been well covered before though.

 

[1889]

Flo/Flu. Nilsen/Nilssen/Nillssen/Nillsen. Hammond/Useless

That is how you spell Hammond?

 

[boo radley]

No no no. Your thinking of Peskisoleedou.

Your spot on.

Let's hope McBaldrick has a cunning plan to get us in the top 6.

Winds me up as well mate. I mean, how dense must you have to be to not put a simple comma after using the word 'however' eh?

No no ...... the OP says spelt wrong. Nothing wrong with that one

 

[mattbianco1]

Sun Jihai. Surname Sun. NOT Jihai. Not just people here, commentators etc as well, refused to give the man (and other Chinese players) the simple respect to get it right.

Not sure you're entire right with the naming of the eastern community.

Koreans for example have about 3 or 4 different surnames - Park, Kim, Lee etc.

That's why they use their given names e.g Park Ji-Sung, his surname is Park so in England on his Man Utd shirt they put J.S. Park. Because of the naming traditions and lack of surnames when they play internationally he has his given name, "Ji Sun" on the shirt to differentiate between the other Parks in the squad.

Sun Jihai has worn "Sun" for City and "Sun Jihai" but for United he wore "Jihai"
