Just watching Arsenal v Villa on Football Classics, not sure of the year but its at Highbury. I'd forgotten how much I used to snigger every time Seaman touched the ball. Also reminded me of Paul Dickov and the spanish player Ufahrte, not to forget our own Shittu.

However, nothing beats Seaman on the ball!!

    I had "Seaman" on the back of an England shirt (snigger) when I was a young kid, remember a couple of girls laughing at me and had no idea why!

    Still happens now. My son sniggers on FIFA15 when playing Millwall if Cummings gets the ball and deliberately trys to score in the 69th minute...

    In this respect Stefan Kuntz is a legend

    Kenny Achampong and John Chiedozie still raise a smirk for me. Just because they sound funny

    He didn't play football, but I had a housemate called Benjamin James Staines.

    When I was a rep we had a customer who once said that his daughter "had just discovered football and loved Seaman". Did we laugh, and he didn't get it. Also Danny Shitto at Millwallies still raises a smile.

    Yeah Portugal reserve keeper in 2004 I saw his name in the squad lists in the paper. Made me giggle all the way through the tournament and for me wins best silly name.

    Shame Seamen and Quim were not in the same games .. could have been fodder for some comical commentary.

    Another comical name is the Swiss team "Young Boys", giggled all the way through Spurs v Young Boys a couple of years ago.
