Its not that hard to understand as you examples are ridiculous but hey ho

Either way, it's completely disrespectful. I can understand why someone would do it because they were unaware of the name change. Being aware and choosing to do it anyway is just twatty behaviour, I've no idea what people got out of that. Even less doubling down and getting annoyed when people asked them to stop.

My names been spelt wrong on  various occasions  on here it doesnt offend me to be honest.


You being offended by bad spelling would be like Tiny Tommy Two-names being offended by someone else’s Islamophobia.

Also, if I accidentally misspelled your name and you corrected me, I'd make sure I got it right next time. I wouldn't double down on it and slag you off for letting me know.

Yeah but that i actually  agree with. If its done as a wind up that's different and understandable to find disrespectful But as i said how do you know they done  it deliberately?

I once accidentally  typed mongs instead of mings and some  posters thought it was done deliberately. I love our tyrone 😍

Hamstring. No confirmation of time out but a few weeks, at best, I imagine.

Hamstrings must be in a different part of the body from when I was playing.  I swear he was clutching at his ankle/calf area when he went down on Saturday.

Some posters last summer were outright told that he'd stopped using the Bidace part of his name, and why, and still insisted on either calling him Bidace instead of Philogene or carried on using JPB. They knew exactly what they were doing and it's just really fucking weird.

It means you’re really bad at spelling. The fact that you don’t know what it means means you’re really bad at simple comprehension. Or you don’t know that Tiny Tommy is Islamophobic. Which would mean you’re really bad at spotting Islamophobes.

That's because you've got a stupid foreign name, mate, Dameeetro or whatever you're called*







* obviously, I'm only joking, spelling - and if relevant, pronouncing - the foreign names of people I work with correctly is a pet thing of mine, and it pisses me off when some of my colleagues are still getting it wrong for people they've worked with for 10 years.

I get the sense Emery hasn't been overly impressed with Onana so far. Niggling injuries are disrupting any momentum. He's well able to win a ball and useful in both boxes which we needed. But he's limited enough in possession, certainly nowhere near Luiz level. Kamara's doing a lot of heavy lifting in our midfield since he came back from injury.

Agree a completely different player to Luiz, and his unavailability is becoming a problem as we can not settle the midfield.
 Kamara had to move to the left to accommodate Bogarde against Arsenal.
Apparently he was similar at Everton and some were suggesting he is not exactly robust.

The reports are that Amadou Onana is still injured and expected to miss at least the upcoming games against West Ham and Celtic with a hamstring injury.

Bring back Douglas Luiz!

Wasn't it supposed to be a calf injury?
