I took Den Perry after the likeable character in Phoenix Nights who burned down the club!!
I copied mine off my pal JohnnyL78 :D
...seriously, I actually did :o :o
I'm a huge fan of The Offspring and my nickname is Jof (my initials) so Jofspring worked perfectly when the two where combined......use it as my username for everything now.
been a shels supporter for as long as i can remember and i moved to galway in september from swords. hence the name galwayred.
a thread for people to explain, if they so desire, the reason and rationale behind their username. I notice alot of people get mine wrong (St.Stu and StSku being a couple of the common ones)...
There are a few usernames out there that make me chuckle too so hopefully will get an answer on some of them.
Anyhoo, ill start it off
SkStu
Sk = Saskatchewan (where im living)
Stu = Stu
AberdonianStu
Aberdonian = I was living in Aberdeen at the time
Stu = I was trying to write Aberdonian Student but the maximum length was Aberdonian Stud and that was a bit too much so removed the d.
Its been about 10 years, but I have always maintained:
theworm = Dennis Rodman
23, 45 = Michael Jordan's numbers
My brother has another theory that theworm is based off of Scotty 2 Hotty, who was a professional wrestler in those days who I liked, but was not one of my favorites (so I don't think I'd have included it)
I like to Party...
The power behind the throne.
Partly because I’m a Francophile. I did a course in college and discovered it was the nickname of Cardinal Richelieu’s private secretary, whose name I’ve since forgotten. Partly because as I got older (and greyer!) I started lecturing in political communication, and got involved with a party at a modestly influential level. Now, I find that a lot of my former students are junior eminences grises, working with politicians and lobby firms and even the FAI.
But mostly because I’ m happier working behind the scenes on strategy, than out front in the limelight. Basically I’m a shy megalomaniac.
My hundredth post – and it’s turned into something of a confession...
I'm from Galway.
I'm from Longford.....
17 page thread here:

From Harry Enfield and Chums - The Slobs. Wayne and Waynetta were discussing what to name their new baby (the eldest being Frogmella). It was a choice of Canoe, like Keanu Reeves, or Spudulika - "Because it's exotic". It stuck in my head since and it's just one of those classic pair of comedy characters that there has to be something related to them on foot.ie. The sketch where Wayne is thrown out for loving his children too much and Waynetta not having a "braahn" baby (they were brown but that was just dirt), he rocks up at Naomi Campbells house, then runs away on her telling her she's too fat, she then turns up and offers him one of his sextuplets. Classical!
Shut it, Galway Harps.
So tempted to change it back...
I could say ex- Cork City striker Denis Behan was the inspiration behind my username - But the sad truth is the name sums up my limitations as a player.
My name is stann
I most likely answered this years ago but the sad and shameful fact is ...I am a Commodore. I go once, twice, three times a season.
Stupidly(and definitely boring), I was drinking when I signed up and for some odd reason I used the name of the cul de sac I live in as a username. Smart move, I should sign up a new account but as I have only one email address I think I'm stuck with horton. Oh well.
I genuinely thought you were named after this guy:

I was eating
I put hours of thought into mine...
Think I'd like to change it but the pressure of coming up with a new one would break me.
If i ever leave the club i play for ill change it.
Obviously enough, I really like the Back To The Future movies.
I used have 'Barely Legal', until I got it changed. I thought it suggested that I lived just within the rules, but one day realised it made me look like more of a pervert, which i'm not :o
Nothing wrong with being a pervert.
Fair point. There's being a pervert and being a total knobber like. :)
