who would they be?
I'll start:
FatFreddy = Vinnie Jones
Fernhurst = Bobby Charlton
KCat = Liam Brady
CorkedHat = Jimmy Greaves
LBNo11 = Terry Butcher with the bandage
Peabody = Ian Callaghan
Admin = Billy Bremner
WhiteNoise = Johan Cruyff, pure genious
TonyGilroy = Johnny Haynes
HatterDon = Bobby Robson
Sipwell = Eric Gerets
WhiteJC = Ronaldo (due to his technical abilities and Windows stepovers)
GCW = Archie Gemmill
FCSilverFox = Zenedine Zidane
Lighthouse = Alan Mullery
OldBrownShoe = George Cohen
The Daddy = Sir Stanley Matthews
ClintClintDeuce = Rooney
AmericanJames = Rooney's younger brother
YankeeJim = Joe Jordan
Logicalman = Danny Murphy
Lork = Jack Wilshere
RidgeRider = Kevin Keegan
Mr Ska = Jan Molby
Airfix = Peter Crouch (after his diet)
I'll let you lot fill in the rest
Well, as Wiki says : "As a player he gained a fearsome 'Jaws' persona due to having lost two front teeth early in his career. The persona aside, he became known as a strong, fearless and committed player " Well sort of accurate except I still have all 11 of my teeth. :57:
I forgot to ask, who would Finnister be, Mia Hamn?
Who am I, Shefki Kuqi? (Killing threads like he killed offensive fluidity)
:023:
Well done :54: but the gulf of class can't be that much between CCD and myself
I can't remember a time when I was more flattered, Mr. Finn. Sir Bobby Robson. Wow; I'm speechless.

092.gif Not forgetting:
Bog (Old Sod's Army) Cookie Coleman
The Equaliser Jimmy Langley
Any takers for Frank Large, Reg Stratton, Alf Stokes, Terry Dyson? 087.gif
Cork City- Roy Keane
think nogood John toshack in disguise.
Mr Finn is said to be modelling hi :hook:mself on Jamie Carragher

Well at least it wasn't John Terry :59:
I think our Welshman Mr Owen would be:
os5889 = Neville Southall (or even give David Stockdale a run for the buffet table) :54:
zzamora = Volz, everybodys favourite
Mr Moon = Garry Linniker, clean cut and never spits
Brede Butter Pudding and Alfyadschequebook = Hoddle and Waddle, a fine pair
Finny = Sir Alex Ferguson, charming but an underline menace
WhiteWitch = Sir Alf Ramsey, gets the job done !
Blingo = Ian Wright, Happy Chappy !
Mr Fulham = Arsen Wenger, super serial !
Cleveland Mo = Owen Hargreaves, great talent but where the hell is she ???
I'd quite fancy myself as Eric Cantana but is that going a step too far.
Can't believe some of the people I missed but thanks for filling in the gaps. Keep them coming
I picture Equaliser more as:
The Equaliser = Fellaini :005:
and finally ...
Pata = Bellemy, will eventually go back to where he came from
I'll make do with being Billy the Badger.
I was born on the same day and year as Gary MacAllister. That's as close as I can get with comparing myself to a footballer - the waistline of Neville Southall, and the passing ability of Zat Knight :016:
Given my injury history of late, perhaps I'll raise my sights beyond Billy the Badger and go for Owen Hargreaves.
I'll be Gary Barnett...running around a lot, but no one really notices me.
I'd like to apply for the Jim Stannard role please.
CV: I used to be quite a good keeper in my day. I am now too fat and drink too much.

...for shady1 I was going to suggest Ray Lewington, having been ever present and in the thick of all the action - however I value my life.
Therefore shady1 has to be Micky Adams, respected, tough and his own man.
Oh and for Finnster, it must be Rufus Brevett, audacious, tenacious, uncompromising, but fair...
...and a special mention for WhiteJC = Danny Murphy, wonderful vision, hard working, his performances a craft, and capable of breathtaking quality - although I think he is slowing up a bit now.. :dft012:
Egotistical I know, especially as I'm a "squaddie" with less than 200 posts, I'd like to self-nominate Barry Hayles. Weightwise we're similar as I'm also chunkier than I should be. But really I'm just thrilled to be given the chance to be here at all, and I will keep trying to up my game but probably at some point realise it's all too big an ask and vanish into lower league obscurity.
Jan Molby - Good looking.. but battles with his weight.. yeah id take that!

Mr aFFCn_Fan,
We were all squaddies once. I enjoy your posts. Keep them coming as you definitely contribute to the quality of this board. There are just so many people I will always miss out on somebody. But based on your previous posts I would probably say
aFFC_Fan = Chris Smalling (talent, but needs to take the step up from Maidstone and contribute a lot more)

No, it is more down to the excellent sense of humour. We are all pisspots one way or another. And I don't mind a little :wine: anytime mate
Finny - I always thought was a Jimmy Dunne type player. Hard defender with the odd flash.
I'm going to take Jack Charlton. Since I'm spending most of my posts trying to sell things (have you bought a Fulham Review yet? www.godsfoot.com (http://www.godsfoot.com) for £5), this seems only right, as Charlton opened football's first 'club shop' at Leeds United. Which seems really weird today - imagine Brede Hangeland running the FFC club shop.

That would work. Just one thing though, use of brylcreem is mandatory, even if you've got flowing locks like LBN°11.
lighthouse, Allan Mullery, yep, that fits well, having tried to talk to Mullery.

Nope, he's got a family of carefully arrange squirrels strapped to his head.
Just because the pair of you can't grow a pony tail or are bald enough (note: not bold) to do so. I have had nothing but compliments from ladies and nothing but sarcastic grins by men. It tells you something: men are envious you are now even more attractive for womankind. And when I am talking about womankind, I am taking about the attractive subspecies of it :)
If Airfix would be a football player, I reckon he would be Cristiano Ronaldo.

Mr Finn sir,
Don't forget that we also need stewards to make sure the spectators don't stand, bang drums, have screw-tops on their bottles, shout too loudly or have too positive a match-day experience.
Any suggestions for Clydebank and Ostrich Watch?!
Difficult, as most of us don't follow the 4th Division like we used to.
Hmm, might I be Pierluigi Colina or Howard Webb?
Bridged.......i'm the wrong colour to be Ian Wright Madam. lol lol lol.
Great call on Ray Lewington for Shady LB, you beat me to it hahahahaha.

Wadey = jimmy bullard both keen fishermen :hook:

Strachan once said this about Rooney: Its an incredible rise to stardom. At 17, you're more likely to get a call from Michael Jackson than Sven Goran Eriksson.

Let's test it out. LB is a klootzak :005:

By the way, I am assuming that Google Translation doesn't translate this sort of stuff. If it does, Meineer Sipwell and I are 096.gig
I guess I would be Roberto Baggio - Amazing talent who loves a smaller team :015:

Ik ben bang dat het geval is, klootzak! :011:
How could I have missed this thread - thank goodness for resurrections of the half-dead.
Alf Ramsey - thanks Kcat.
Doesn't get more important than that 065.gif
Kcat I am torn between allocating you Ian Pierce or Aaron Hughes.
I think I'll go with Mr Hughes - always there, always efficient, always intelligent and reads the game like a classic novel.

That is why I used swears which aren't easy to translate in English. You on the other hand are screwed. That said, does me admitting to swearing in foreign lead to a 096.gig? It is a philosophical conundrum: as the Admins can't understand what I said, can they prove I am breaking laws?
Can't easily be translated eh? Well let me help. Ed - he called you an old bastard! :005:
That means I can get away with vulgarity in the local patois of Northern France (chti).
If anyone is still at school, I doubt very much if your French teacher would understand this.
"R'monte t'maronne, elle va quéire et ein va vir t'un cul ch'qui n'ain biau."
Loosely translated: Pull your trousers up, they're falling down and we can see your butt which isn't a pretty sight. 063.gif

It stems from this

On the foreign language use of foul words, would cursing in a American lingo be considered ok, as our generally poor mastery of the English language can be considered unreadable by some?
Also, I love reading this thread. Great job by all!

Not too far from Swedish either: "Din moder är en hora!"
I remember when I spent a lot of time in Holland that it wasn't too hard to read the local newspapers and actually grasp the main content.

Afrikaans and Dutch is fairly close. I can understand it easily.
You people make me sick. All of you going to Finnster, cap in hand to be bestowed with the name of some footballer who in reality you are nothing like. "Oh please Mr.Finnster can I be so and so because we are both sad, past it and don't matter anymore". Then you wait for Lord Manhattan to descend from his throne and say yes or no as if your entire life was on the line. Completely pathetic.
Psst, Hey Finn can I be Bullard since both of us are sad, past it and don't matter anymore? I'll stay logged in until you have made your decision

Very much a tongue-in-cheek post Syd, and your right, I probably should have thrown a smilie or 2 in there. Hope Finnster doesn't think I was somehow having a go at him. Sorry all.

No worries Cincy. I kind of gathered that. But if you want to be Bullard, you surely can after that prank :dft012:

Finnster I knew you would get it, but I guess some people missed the small part at the bottom. I'll take a pass on Bullard, he was used for comical effect, much like his spell at Hull :drums:
