Witty/Humorous Player nicknames 22:05 - Dec 7 with 7345 viewspafcprogs

Hi

Argyle fan here on a mission to hunt out witty/humourous player nicknames from the past and present from each club.

I am also interested in finding out who your Psycho, Trigger, Beast, Animal Tank and other similar common or garden nicknames are...

If you have any good candidates then the nickname player and any back story would be great...not necessarily just Rangers but obviously thats the main reason for coming on the board.

We probably have enough for Holloway though :)

Best

Peter

Martin Allen, Mad Dog, apparently because he used to froth at the mouth during training sessions.

We used to have a player some called The Milky Bar kid. Terry McQuade I think it was. Dunno why he was given such a name.

Crouchy became known as the Freak after he broke into the Englnd squad.

Joey cnting Barton.

And Joe Jordan, with us under Rednapp, wasn't he known as the Animal at Man U? Saw him play us at LR back in the day with his teeth out, literally, no front teeth. They used to say he was transported in a lion cage, fed raw meat then released onto the pitch haha.

Yeah in terms of ones that outsiders might not know, "Dave" is a good one. Fitz Hall as someone already mentioned was an all time classic, but I think he had that nickname prior to joining us

While not a player, but chairman Tony Fernandes' 'Bungle' takes some beating.

Devon White - 'Bruno'

Georges Santos - '50p Head'

Kevin Gallen - 'Magic Hat'

Clive Walker - 'Flasher/You Farkin' Chelsea C..t*'

Peter Ramage - 'Rambo'

* Pretty much applies to all former Chelsea players, save Steve WIcks.

The only "Psycho"s I remember were Mark Dennis and, briefly, Gavin Maguire. Dennis because he hurt himself slide-tackling an advertising hoarding and Maguire because of the Danny Thomas "tackle".
