Off the bench to make his debut for Cambridge at Old Trafford, currently 3-0 down
Distant cousin of Robbie Keane.
I didn't see the game, but I did wonder how the commentator pronounced his name!
On the same side as Stephen Patrick Morrissey?Quote:

It's not that hard to pronounce when you actually are informed how- 'Ga-road' shouldn't be a stretch for the Cambridge boss.
I think the BT commentator got it right. I certainly didn't notice anything unusual anyway. Morrissey had a half chance too but he scuffed his shot pretty badly.
Bear in mind he's only heard it pronounced in a Cork accent and I'm sure you can sympathise.Quote:
