This sounds daft……

[Feo]

“Welcome to our visitors today Bristol City. But make some noise for Ruben Selleses Sheffield United”.

 

[Bladeloyal]

Sounds alrieght to me

 

[Ginger Gnome]

You're right, Selles out

 

[GreasyChipBeattie]

“Welcome to our visitors today Bristol City. But make some noise for Ruben Selleses Sheffield United”.

I'm not normally pedantic but feel I need to correct this slightly to reflect the situation more accurately:
"Welcome to our visitors today Bristol City. Now I'll make some more noise with ear-splitting, stupidly over-loud music that pisses everybody off"

 

[brownblade]

Selles'

 

[KMC-1889]

there’s no way Sinclair pronounces it right anyway.

Taking bets he squeezes in some emotional guff about the old ‘gaffer’.

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Selles its meaning...shits..bowel movements.

Ruben Selles we're one nowt down...cummon Ruben Selles join us in the Kop bogs we've got the shits reyt bad.

My favourite was when he tried to say Kavelashvili

 

[blade_ben]

It sounds shit regardless of who the manager is. Just say welcome to (away team) and make some noise for Sheffield United.

Let’s hope they’ve sorted that wank sound system out.

 

[BiggerBladeThanThou]

Just say Reuben’s (Roooooooooooben’s) Sheffiiiiiiielldddd Yooooooonited!

 

[DifferentClass]

Watch him put on an exaggerated Spanish accent in pronouncing Selles' name

Jonathon Pearce 1 million percent says...

SELLESH!

 

[djbaldken]

Normally double L in Spain is pronounced as a Y.
So it could be pronounced Seyes.
I asked our Spanish teacher exactly this.
His reply was that in the context of a surname it is probably pronounced as it's written ie Selles.
But he wasn't entirely sure.
Hope this helps.

Don't care. I'm not cheering until they entertain me.

 

[Bladeloyal]

Don't care. I'm not cheering until they entertain me.

Obviously not been pre season then

By that you mean turned the f****r down right mate?!

 

[wizadry]

Yes mate, strangely, the louder they have it the more you can’t hear it, it’s appalling!

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

It sounds shit regardless of who the manager is. Just say welcome to (away team) and make some noise for Sheffield United.

Unless we have Wayne Rooney/Frank Lampard/Steve Gérard (delete as appropriate) we don't need to do that anyway.

 

[JOEYDEE]

Watch him put on an exaggerated Spanish accent in pronouncing Selles' name

Thelleth...

 

[brownblade]

By that you mean turned the f****r down right mate?!

There's a thread on this that needs bumping before the season kicks off...

 

[Zlatan]

Selles'

Selles's.

 

[TJB.]

Guessing it'll just be 'Ruben's red & white wizards', no?

 

[I should coco]

I'm happy to join in with the inevitable 'Chrissy Wilder, he's one of our own'.

Of course I want the random Spanish bloke to do well, but he needs his card marking.

Just sayin' like....

 

[HighfieldBlade]

It's pronounced like "Say-yes", just like the Del Monte ads

 

[BarcaBlade]

Obviously not been pre season then

No, and unlikely to make a match any time soon.

The comment was very much tongue in cheek.

 

[TopBoy]

By the time the team come up, my ears are normally shot due to the ridiculous volume of the PA playing sub-standard music.

 

[Pintor75]

Turn the volume down till teams come out and Get Sinclair to stop that " Red and white wizards " bollocks too, sounds like a kids pantomime
