Qphaha and chelscum.

It's ok for them them to call us Foolham etc
It's part of rivalry

They can do what they want, they're just nicknames I find cringeworthy.

W**ker      Most referees

Correction, all referees.

Not all refs, just seems like all of them.  Especially in this league. 
Anyone can blend into the crowd.  How will you standout when it counts?

Anybody whose name is changed to "....ey" like Banksey or Jonesey or Billsy or Pevensey.

I agree with Boyoers - anyone who has -ers put on the end e.g. Johnners, Aggers, Blowers and, er, Holders.

When I was at school I was called Morgan, it was a thing to call people by their second name. That doesn't seem to apply anymore at school.

Colin  is my favourite, it is a very clever nick name

I was also called Morgan. Capital M, small organ. Can't think why..

Longtime George Gregan understudy Chris Whittaker had my personal favourite.

Anthem. As it was the only time he was on the pitch.

What do they call kids at school now then? I bet they don't wear gowns any more either.

I quite liked Dead Snake and 10,000 Volz (he scored the 10,000th goal in the PL). Lovebite is totally naff IMHO and I never liked Jimmy Dunne being called Flasher.

I always knew Clive Walker as 'Flasher' (there was a rumour that he got caught flashing someone)
Gary Elkins = Berko
Dean Coney = Dixie (my personal fave obvs!)
"Dixie" Dean Coney - the legend lives on!

I love that last self-deprecatory sign off! 
And am I right in noting the class difference: "...ers" for public school rugger and cricket: "...ey" for football and secondary modern/ancient?

I often remember Chris Waddle referred to as Sick Note.

240 made me chuckle, never heard that before. Personal favourites....Ivor and Tosh.
I always thought shovel foot was Eddie Lowe.

Scotland world cup 78. Scotland should have Jimmy Johnstone  recalled (Jinky) then they could have Jinky on the right and Junky on the left. (Wille Johnston sent home, failed a drugs test).

Changing my own initial post about those I find cringeworthy, this thread has thrown up some I really did like - i.e. Colin, One Size  and I think Anthem is really neat,  I also liked Monica aka Leggy.

The world is made up of electrons, protons, neurons, possibly muons and, definitely, morons.

I'm a bit worried that you think I'm self-defaecating...

Holders always holds it - even when passing a surprise flute.
