Is Nicky Forster's Name Really So Hard To Pronounce?

You'd think not, but Norman Gall calls him "Nicky Foster" and the co-commentator on SCR today is calling him "Nicky Forrester", so perhaps it's harder than us mere mortals think.

I think its an age thing.
My dad (in his 60's) is always calling him Foster as well.

I don't know if the woman on the PA at Crewe today got his name wrong, but she was shocking. If I heard her tell me something was mine again I could have screamed - "here are your teams, your match sponsor is..., your referee is, your linesmen are". How about just saying 'the'??

And I can't believe Norman Gall still hasn't worked out he's called Forster. It's also weird that people get it wrong because he's not exactly an unheard of player.

The announcer pronounced just about every players name wrong, oddly enough except Forsters! When their player, Eugen Bopp was subbed, she called him Egg-enn, FFS, can't even get the names fo her own players right LOL

She was a disaster, I guess it was her first time, but you would have thought she at least would know how her own payers names were pronounced, and things like McLeod, surely if you have the job of announcer, you should be able to read a name like that? And for the others, Kuipers etc, you ask,surely?
