Best football nicknames 14:11 - Jan 13 with 1163 views

No idea why this sprang up in my mind, maybe because I watched Mike Bassett England Manager recently, but who has or had the best nicknames in football?

The two that spring to mind for me are 'Colin' for Neil Warnock, a work of genius that one, and One-Size for Fitz Hall.

Any other good ones out there?

I played with a guy called 'Pimms' and never found out what his first name was for about 3 years lol.

I think this deserves adding to this thread

"Bobby Robson was never the best with names. Once, he entered a lift with England captain Bryan Robson and said cheerily: “Hello, Bobby.”

“I’m Bryan,” the skipper replied. “You’re Bobby.”

Likewise, a reporter was once left disappointed after asking Ameobi what his Newcastle team-mates called him, only to be told: “Shola.”

The journalist then asked the striker what his manager called him.

“He calls me Carl Cort.”
