Aye, it's unusually satisfying.

Hearing commentators saying it is even more so.

Daniel Candeias . . . I doubt it's pronounced "candyass" but I like to think it is.

I also like Fransisco Arce's nicname of 'Chiqui'

Though my favourite is Norman Conquest, an Aussie keeper, though Segar Bastard might be a good one for our Turkish friends.

The forward for the team I play for is called Orlando Pedretti. Not innuendo laden or anything, I just think it's a brilliant name.

I got his book for my birthday, it's a sort of autobiography about his time playing non league football.

Gearoid Morrissey

Not the Mancunian miserablist on a heroin-fuelled rampage, rather a reserve team player with the Dingles.

Goalkeeper, David Seaman.

Just for the headlines potential.

'Seaman's all over the place'
'Seaman comes for the cross'
'The manager prefers Seaman'

Etc. etc.
