Thread: People who's names you've always gotten wrong

    People who's names you've always gotten wrong

    I've always thought it was Paddy Constantine not Paddy Considine. Ever since I watched Dead Mans Shoes (brilliant film)

    Neil Warnock thinks our star No.26 is called Fred Gunoobee.

    He always renamed Emyr Huws as 'Emris' too.

    I always get that Greek defender Kostas Triantafyllopoulos wrong.

    I always used to get Simon Walton's name wrong when he was with us.

    I used to call him 'Useless twat'.

    I think you`re confusing him with Richard (man bag) Langley.

    Ah, got it-Damn Americans! Within the English Language, there are a lot of French words that we use, my mate reckons that the French will do their best not to incorporate English words, or attempt to think of a 'New' French word to replace it. I have no evidence to back this up, or how it would be implemented, in every day life (French writing and Film excluded) I suspect my mate (his name is Tim) has been reading the Daily Mail, although i'd love to think it was true, some angry French person in a government office, eradicating the natural evolution of a Language.

    Depends what dembele. I'm not very skilful, not very fast either if that helps your decision making.

    The French have a bunch of very old farts who sit down and come up with French equivalents of English words. I can't imagine being a fly on the wall when the Académie française come up with the French equivalent of twerking and the like. Surprisingly, the Germans are a lot more laissez-faire and are embracing English words at an astonishing rate.

    bollocks should they. threads are like conversations and can change as they go on - do you stop people mid sentence when you're talking to them and say "er i think you'll find we were actually talking about the weather - if you want to talk about the football then please start another conversation."?

    I prefer Neapolitan for the 3 different flavours, I like the variety.

    I started the thread out of curiosity, I don't particularly want to read some fella correcting me. As if people remember this shit.
