City players’ names we can’t pronounce (1 Viewer)

[AJB1983]

Two obvious examples to me:
George Boateng - should be pronounced Bwateng but everyone always said how it was spelt.

Tony Andreu - going by his pre-season vid it should be pronounced ‘Ondrur/Andrur’ but we say ‘Andrew/Andreyu’

Any others?

I work with a lady from Zimbabwe
She laughs at how I pronounce ndlovu
Let’s just say we are all saying his name wrong

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

Is Wegerle pronounced as Wegg -er- lee or Wegg - earl? I've heard some American commentators use the latter, but that just sounds fricking weird to me.

I don't understand the problem.

I always pronounce Peter Ndlovu, Peter Ndlovu.

Simple.

Why did you have Roland Nilsson with you and why was it upsetting him so much?

 

[baldy]

Let's not forget Don Goodmans pronunciation of the club as a whole....Coven'ry

 

[Ccfc1979]

Because he’s still bitter about no one being able to spell his surname when he was here.

I didn’t look. I will next match and will shout BIAMOU. BIAMOU. Like I’m starting a chant.

I can’t say Craig Bellamy’s name without adding “tw*t”, or something of that ilk, at the end

Best just to go with Bellendamy. You can't fail then.

I know Clive Eakin used to say Vinsentay.

 

[westcountry_skyblue]

Roger Van Gool or was it pronounced Van Hool?

 

[Grendel]

I understood the pronunciation was "en-lov-o", when I heard him being interviewed on the radio.

Sometimes (quite often actually) you just try too hard to make a joke of everything anyone says.
Now let's see you make a joke out of this.

Don't try hard at all, Gazbola. Always just type the first thing in my head without even thinking.

 

[Gaz]

Craig Bellamy is pronounced ..
“Little shit face that needs drop kicking”

Think it’s old Welsh or something

You're certainly not alone in doing that.
