    I'm guilty of it, using AVB, but listening to radio five live last night, they were talking about people that call our manager AVB, or Di Matteo was RDM. Should we be calling Ferguson, SAF?

    I'm going to make a point to use André Villas-Boas or at least Villas-Boas as thinking about it, calling our manager AVB is pretty ridiculous.

    What other managers had shortened versions of their names, right down to their initials?

    To be fair, his name is ridiculous. Have you seen it in full?

    When AVB invites me round for a glass or two I will call him Andre, until then AVB will do just fine. For one thing I can't guarantee that I will spell Villas Boas correctly anyway, ABV is much easier I wont get that wrong. We all know who BVA is now anyway!

    AVB for me,he isn't 'Arry' or 'BMJ' because he's still too distant so it's formal from me. Perhaps if and when he wins something for us then I'll relax and be less formal. he's not one of us......................not yet.

    Funnily enough, Alex Ferguson is known as Constantly Using Nobheaded Tantrums For Aggrivating Coaches Everywhere...
