York City - potential striker crisis
Today's York Press, as well as carrying a story on Brodie leaving, had a front page story on Michael Rankine and Michael Gash facing potential jail sentences for a night club fight. They will be sentenced in October.
Michael Gash must rival Danny Shittu for having the most unfortunate name for a footballer.
Its a shame they won't be sentenced before we play York on 27th.

Add to those two the Brazilian signed by Celtic a few years back. His name was SCHEIDT. With the song that goes "You're sh1te and you know you are" being so popular up there, they didn't dare put his surname on his shirt and had to use his first name (can't remember what it was, onset of Alzheimers probably)
Re: York City - potential striker crisis
Haha, never heard of that Scheidt bloke, but I seem to remember a goalkeeper called Quim, played for a Portuguese team in the Champs league. That amused me somewhat.

Hodgy had a Portugese striker on trial with us years ago with the name Quim. Think its a common name down that way.Big Al wrote:Haha, never heard of that Scheidt bloke, but I seem to remember a goalkeeper called Quim, played for a Portuguese team in the Champs league. That amused me somewhat.
Another dodgy name was the German Kuntz.

Stefan Kuntz was a classic
I remember one of my first even fantasy teams in around 97 was called 'We love to watch Kuntz dribble.....'

Re: York City - potential striker crisis
Another comedy footballer's name was Uwe Fuchs, a 'boro striker in the mid-90s.
Everyone is entitled to my opinion!
Re: York City - potential striker crisis
mentioned him a few weeks ago and thought he would be good for us but we had enough strikers.divas wrote:york have signed leon constantine
