  3. Funnily enough, the pronunciation of Van Gogh came up on QI years ago and I'm sure Stephen Fry said the correct pronunciation was 'Van Hoch'. Certainly not 'Van Go' as the Americans hideously call him.

  5. Good riddance to bad rubbish.
  6. I do as I am a cultured gentleman.
  7. I don't get it. Yes, please do. I like his paintings by the way!
  8. My mother happens to be Welsh and is a Welsh speaker. She pronounces it 'Oh-Ine'. It's not Owen anyway, like people used to constantly refer to OTJ as.
  9. How do people pronounce Foran (and to a lesser extent Doran) by the way? I've always called him For-Ann like you're saying 'for Anne' but is that how he says it? I seem to recollect Terry Butcher putting an emphasis on the Ran part but I don't know if he's right.
  10. Lonsana Doumbouya - The Christian name is easy enough but I've mostly heard his surname pronounced by fans as 'Doom-Boy-Ah'. Now granted, it looks a bit like that to an English speaker, but I watched his game for Guinea on YouTube a few weeks back and it had French commentary. They pronounced his name 'Doom-Boo-Ya' which does sound more French. Owain Fôn Williams - Now this is one that no-one seems to get it right at all. First of all I've heard some fans referring to him simply as 'Williams'. This is wrong and would be akin to calling someone with the surname MacDonald as 'Donald'. His first name is not pronounced like Owen or 'Oh-Wayne' as some seem to think. It is in-fact 'Oh-Ine' (Ine sounding like wine with the W taken away). His surname is also not pronounced 'fon', it is in-fact pronounced as 'Vorn'. I've also been told by a Welsh speaker that the Williams is not pronounced as it would be for a non-Welsh person, as in Welsh you actually acknowledge the A, meaning 'Will-Ee-Ams' is how to say it. Altogether, the correct pronounciation is 'Oh-Ine Vorn Will-Ee-Ams'. I expect these to be pronounced correctly by all fans from now on.

  12. Could Foran not come out of retirement and play as a keeper? There is some logic here: he's fairly tall, still in decent shape, has/had a great leap as a player and does have experience of playing GAA which I guess isn't unlike being a keeper.
  13. I was under the interest you needed at least two designated keepers in the matchday squad. Even then though, seemingly Esson is fit. Does beg the question though, in the unlikely event we did need to play an outfield player in goal, who would be? Josh Meekings would be the best choice IMHO (for obvious reasons!).
  14. Cliftonville in Belfast play at Solitude. I think that's a great name for a ground and very distinctive. What about just calling the ground Caledonia? It'd be quite a unique but memorable name I reckon.
  15. Odd that Brown is not allowed to play, but Mackay is despite also being on loan earlier this season.
  16. Looks like Lewis Horner must've voted.

  18. I was in JD Sports last week and all they had left by the looks of things was kids sizes. Not that I'd be buying one anyway of course.

  20. Elgin at Borough Briggs. Yahoo!
  21. Part of the reason I think lately is our formation and tactics are far too predictable. It's 4-2-3-1 every game and you can almost guarantee the starting eleven before you even turn up at the ground. We saw on Saturday Dundee use a 5-3-2. We have two good attacking wing-backs in Raven and Tremarco, so we have the players to do it. Time we gave it a try IMO.

  23. Remember that season we started rubbish and miles down the table and Dundee were miles ahead, only for their form to fall like a stone and we waltzed our way to the title? Happy days. Truly happy days.
  24. I see Alex MacDonald has turned fairly prolific for Oxford. Thought he was guff for us.
  25. All to do with the establishment of Private Eyes and Kool Runnings on Church Street IMHO.
