I think it might be Scottish, no can understand them ****s, not even Google.

I remember one Xmas coming back home from Aberdeen to see the kids, and we went to a party, and the women hosting the party was Scottish, but being down in Hull for a long time there was no problem to understand her. However she had a mother down who lived in Fraserburgh which is just North of Aberdeen and no one other than me could understand a word she was saying, and I ended up translating for them.
 
Get IvyTiger on a bus to the Ecuadorean capital, stat!

How many city players have had names containing capital cities? Any?

Jan Venegoor of Helsinki?
I feel like Tomori should have Tokyo somewhere in his.
Have we had any Wellingtons or Washingtons?
There have been some games this season where every City player seems to have been named Riga Mortis.

I mentioned Jones. I’d class him as the 2nd worst I saw, despite (I think) seeing him score a winner at Valley Parade.

I think you're right. 2-1 away win and they missed a pen near the end. Remember beiing in their awful away end that ran the side of the pitch.

Jones deffo scored v Hartlepool at home too

The only consolation in reading all these names is I was younger when they were around. Apart from that it's the stuff of nightmares.
I don't know what div 3 and 4 are like now but it can't be as bad as those days.

I liked Francis too.

Although, when he was at Stockport, him and Preece were a nightmare. Francis regularly hit 30+ and Preece was never that far behind.

I used to like Edgeley Park prior to it being all-seater.

I remember starting work somewhere where someone was always referred to as Rigger. I thought this was because he was a fitter or something similar. It was actually a reference to him being so slow it was like he had rigor mortis.
