Witty/Humorous Player nicknames

[SouthEssexBlade]

Len de Goey went by the nickname 'Moose' which I never really got.

Simon Minolet (pronounced Minyolay) at Liverpool goes by the name Slumdog, which is quite witty.

I've not seen owt that can top Michael Higdon's 'Higgopotamus' title.

SBT. But on BladesMad so won't be acceptable to the glitterati on here .

 

[Sean Thornton]

Not a player but I'll give you Nigel Clough - 'Funny Little Nigel'.

It suits him perfectly so well done to whoever came up with that.

Danny04 he's at it again.......

I definitely heard it on the stands after he'd coined it on there. I certainly used it because it was bloody hilarious.

SBT was on here for a time, was he not?

Not ours, but surely one of the best has to be Chelsea players/fans;

César Azpilicueta = Dave

 

[west_yorks_blade]

Several 'supporters' near me had a native American style nickname which was liberally applied to Steven Quinn, Nick Montgomery & Michael Doyle - 'Useless twat pinching a living'.

After he left, Kevin Macdonald became known as 'Money grabbing bastard'

A bit like Paul Ince asking to be called "Guv'nor" at Liverpool. They just called him "Paul".

 

[Esablade]

Paddy Kenny=Paddy Kenny.

Cheers guys...some excellent ones in there...I had Allisons, and werewolf & Tufty already...and Colin of course is well known in these here parts ( Ok I am in Kent but originally)

Your Wendy bashing is to be commended.....I am sure it is reciprocal...I know I posted something on the Ipswich board that was slightly derogatory to Norwich ( something about they should help me because we broke the Norwich keeper we had on loan) and someone of the Norwich bird got super upset and told everyone to stop posting...they didn't and were equally creative...

My favourite new one however is Slumdog for Mignolet...epic

Surely McDonald was "Dances with Wolves money"

 

[snootyfenooty]

They used to call Ted Hemsley "Eddie" Hemsley when he swapped his football shirt for a cricket jumper in the summer. I kid you not.

That's very good, but wasted on here 'Banters with wit'

As an aside I also like the Australian Rugby Union Skipper John Eales nickname 'Nobody' because Nobody's perfect.

 

[Sean Thornton]

Duncan Disorderly.

He was the only 7 ft tall second-rower I've seen who took all the conversion/penalty kicks (and scored with most of them).

 

[Tunstall Fred]

One from the past. Andy Barnsley - Merrick.

It may need explaining but look him up and you should work it out..................


Eventually!

Harsh on Mr Merrick

 

[BerksBlade]

A bit like Paul Ince asking to be called "Guv'nor" at Liverpool. They just called him "Paul".

Should have been called "The Bottler" ( (c) Alex Ferguson 1994)

 

[SouthEssexBlade]

Someone I stood with for years on the kop used to call Bobby Campbell 'flu' whenever he came back after leaving BDTBL. After hearing it a few times I asked him why he called him 'flu' and it was to do with when he was living in digs in Sheffield and came home after a heavy session and allegedly didn't like the midnight soul session of the cat of the landlady, so inflicted the final solution. So Dave called him 'Flu' as in cat killer.

 

[Hamburg Blade]

Akinbiyi - Akin-bad-buy

I have to admit reading through this, we haven't applied our usually astounding wit to many players' nicknames.

 

[COME BACK CHED]

Pineapple Head Jason Lee always creases me up , then i car`nt get his song out of my head ,anyway pafcprogs fuck off you green army wanker [ only jesting ]

 

[1danewhitehouse]

Ade Akinbadbyi

Connor "The Fish" Sammon.

Geoff "The Horse" Horsefield

Tony "Gobshite" McMahon

James "Headers" Hanson

Clayton "The Don" Donaldson

 

[georgebernardshaw]

I coined the nickname 'wanker' for Nyron Nosworthy, due to him being a complete full weight wanker.

Known as “Wonderloaf” in the Westfield corner, because he was fresh to the last slice.....

Also Vic Marks, cricketer for Somerset and England, was known as “Skid”

 

[Alfreton14Blade]

Not football related admittedly, but the versatile & prolific film-star Nick "Monty" Montgomery's worth a mention.

 

[Silent Blade]

I remember Eddie Colquhoun shouting "Frankenstein" at Colin Franks

Wendy fans amused me with their nicknames for the their weak central defenders in season 2000-01, Danny Westwood and Danny Maddix. They were Vivienne and Ruth!

 

[AWetFlannel]

'Fat arse' for Harrison McGahey coined by my dad.
Brayford going by 'the beard' was widely used, but I know better than to say anything endearing about him on here...

 

[Muttley]

The Bishop.....
Heard someone on the kop calling Bash.

Brilliant! Not heard that before

 

[Tyler Durden]

Laurent "Robocop" D'Jaffo on account of having a metal rod in his back if I recall rightly.

Me and a few others used to serenade him with love songs and fervently cheer when he came out to warm up.
He took it all in good humour.

Love Jaffs.

I remember him as The Tin Man.
