Got this few days back, doubt its him though.

Random question though. We as fans tend to call players by their surnames, do footballers do the same to each other or is it a first name basis thing.

Footballers always call each other by their surname but if it ends in a Y or Ley you remove it and add an S.  If it doesn't end in a Y you add one. Or you shorten it and add an s. 

So we would have Stocks, Kirky, Morgs, Gunts, Pearcy etc etc

Are you cafcs or cafc43v3ry

Unless your first name is Dean, in which case you are Deano, even if you have a surname that could be used.

I can't get too stuck into all this as the reality is the day he left us was the day we became crap to watch, predictable and lacking in goals. It's painful not gloat material.
