Pie please

 

[dougdeep]

Os-Car. I think even he can manage that.

 

[Martlet]

Again, the irony...

 

[Questions]

Ossie Gazza Juncket.

 

[grubbyhands]

Never mind Aspinall, how are we going to pronounce his surname. Phonetically please.

 

[BBassic]

Never mind Aspinall, how are we going to pronounce his surname. Phonetically please.

With my limited recollection of the my previously decent understanding of Spanish I think it's pronounced:

Yoonyent

Pretty sure a 'J' in Spanish is closer to a 'Y' in English. I could be wrong though.

Sitting here in my best attempt at a spanish accent I think it's along the lines of Oscar Garthia Who-nee-ay

 

[Simster]

Again, the irony...

Irony?

 

[dougdeep]

The trouble with Spanish names is that they are even pronounced differently in different regions of their country. What is Garthia in Madrid would be Garcia in Barcelona.

 

[Questions]

Why can't we just have managers with good old fashioned English names. Bloody Spanish coming over here with their maintenance or loss of distinction between phonemes represented orthographically and their bloody unstressed vowels.

 

[Norman Baker suck my lozenge]

Where's Hal Habd?

That'll do for me, sounds feasible enough, thanksBB
