Ever had you're own nickname for a player?

We used to call Gordon Greer "the Rolls" because he was a Rolls Royce of a defender
Greg Halford was "the Shadow" as he just had a silhouette when the players were introduced

Over to you

Plenty. But this is a family site so I can't post them here.

CMS was the Afghan Hound and Rohan Ince is known as "Rohan Ince with those long legs of his" which is a direct rip off of when me & my mate used the same ending whenever referring to Carlton Palmer.

I just stick a "y" on the end of their surname. I hear it's the done practice amongst footballers and I enjoy following a crowd.

Brunoy
Dunky
Duffy (cheating, I know)
Bongy
Stephensy
Knockaerty (I didn't want to follow the crowd that much)
Baldocky
Murray
Skalaky (which sounds like an STD)
Marchy
Kayaly

You get the picture. It's very original stuff as I'm sure you can imagine.
