People with appropriate surnames..

[Pauro 76]

Was thinking about sportspeople with surnames that reflect them. Here's a few, can anyone add any more?

Usain Bolt
Peter Crouch
Shane Supple

[Magicme]

Katie (put a) Price (on everything)

Gary Speed (well he tried to be fast)

am sure there are loads more.

[strangeirish]

Caster Semenya...:D...Se-men-ya?...I think I do.

[Lev Yashin]

i was gonna say Caster(ated) Semenya

[DeLorean]

Danny ****tu....nah that's not fair. Ha you can't even write his name on this site!! Sh!ttu bu the way.

Danny Invincible, well his name was up every wkd on Soccer Saturday so he must have been handy in Scotland.

Andy Cole for definite.

I always thought Van Basten, Van Nistelrooy and Solskjaer all sound like really potent striker names. Probably put Huntelaar in that bracket too.

[Magicme]

Abi TITmus?

[Neish]

Prehaps a bit off topic but still the funiest name I've heard

EX Colorado House of Representatives member Randy Baumgardner

[sligofan4ever]

George Best ?

CFL player Sandy Beverage always gives me a laugh...

[Pauro 76]

Bryan Gunn certainly got 'fired' last weekend.

[Boo_Boy]

Girl on the god channel last night called Evangeline Wiener.

Don't know why I was watching the god channel, but apparently this Evangeline chick healed a tumor growing on this womans side by putting her hand on it and praying. Also was able to make this paralysed jamaican woman walk again. I was tempted to buy a tree to be planted in Israel after her performance.

What a load of horse shyte. Thought the name was funny though...

Terry Hurlock. Hurlock just seemed very suitable for him as a surname.

Karim Bagheri. He was big n' hairy.
Sort of.

Remember a very funny bit on Fantasy Football League at the 1998 WC, where they were making phrases by putting together the surnames of players in the various squads.

Like Masinga Song,
and Bagheri Arce. :D



Anyway, back on topic:
Dave Kitson - always the first ready to head out on the training pitch. ;)





Or, my very favourite...
