As with 2006, I'll change my name only if I see something that really warrants a tribute - I was briefly Maxi Blamelez in homage to Maxi Rodriguez' brilliant goal against Mexico.
And I've just realised something shocking - I first registered for the old otf board just before Euro 2000, which means some of you poor buggers have been putting up with me (and each other) for a decade.
Mine's quite straightforward after spending time as Harry Carpenter and it's Welsh equivalent Harri Saer before.
I was thinking of using Klaas not Harrie along the lines of my time as Sempronio Carpentiere in Euro 2008 and after finding this list but it seemed too confusing for others.
Perhaps I'll make Klaas & Harrie twins in tribute to the de Boers and van de Kerkhofs.
I've been around since not long after Euro 2000, but this is the first time I've done the tournament name change thingie, and I don't even know why not.
I am Manno Sanon (was six martlets) in honour of my first big World Cup memory in 1974, the great Haitian himself, and the portent it offers for the poor show I expect Italy to make of it this time round.
On the Forum main page, just below the list of recent post is the line Message Board Forum Stats; click that line and find out all the information about the most poular threads and the busiest OTFers that you never realised you gave a fuck about in the first place.
Anyone else think that MsD has had a disproportionately large number of profile views? And I’m saying this as someone who thinks she’s a “good thing”, in the “1066 and All That” sense.
Hmm, that is sobering. Only WoE and ua have more posts than me, but they can at least use their popularity as an excuse. Time for an extended OTF holiday I think.
Haai and welkom to our beautiful country, boy. Just a shame the Oranje Vrystaat didn't make it, but I hear they're enjoying themselves in Tierra del Fuego instead. Ye don't know yer born until pished at Cape Horn, etc.
'Out of the blue sky, of our depth of sea'? Not sure about the relevance of this to anything.
Are you feeling OK?
That and the Alternative World Cup Users list was hardly necessary. Stats page or no.

I think mine, and that of a few others, are inflated a bit by the crosswords thread.
