    Tonda is a name with multiple origins and meanings depending on the cultural context. In some Slavic languages, Tonda is a diminutive of Anton or Antonina, which are derived from the Roman family name Antonius, meaning "priceless" or "of inestimable worth."

    I hope that the Charlton and Leicester performances are more typical than the other 3 but I wish him all the best and hope that the squad all play for him.

    I have to say that I feel it is still a big risk to have someone basically learning on the job.

    Sensible decision with both the performances and results. Also means if things don't work out we can re-assess (again) next summer.
