As I get older, I struggle more with names - it’s not a good habit to have when you’re writing a blog about a football team and I can be using up to twenty names in every piece I do. Last night’s was the hardest piece I’ve ever had to write because we’re talking about a 0-0 that the Welsh manager didn’t want to take place and this was reflected by me getting lots of names wrong mainly because I had so little interest in what I was writing. So, for example, Joe Rodon became Chris after a mediocre centre forward we had nearly forty years ago, but another error was just repeating something I’d done hundreds of times before.
Somehow, I doubt it if Kieffer Moore reads my blog every week, but, if he does, can I apologise to him for calling him Keiffer for all of this time. I would have sworn blind that I was spelling his name correctly (having done a search for the name Kieffer Moore on here, I’m not the only person making the mistake, there are quite a few Keiffer’s on here and they’re not all me!) and would have gone to my grave believing I was if it wasn’t fot what my friend said to me tonight.
