I use the Corby ones when I stay in hospitals. They're OK but not a patch on a steam iron.

Are the Manny ones any good?

Can we not just stick with The Count (or Coont if not going well) or the Gaffer please. Had to think who the fuck Manny was for a moment!

The Count - I'm not feeling it tbh.

He looks like Zelda from Terrahawks if you ask me. Sorry too computer illiterate to do pics.

I'm going with Pellers.

Why not use his already given nickname of "Engineer"?? As in "he engineered a victory using clever tactics"

Antti has already proven that the use of that nickname gives him a massive, by Finnish standards, boner. I'd rather not encourage that. What's wrong with the fucking Falcon? where did that go?

cheers

P.S. they say Penis sizes are smaller in brainiacs and people who live in cold weather climates. So, there's that....think about it.

Press conference (if over) was very bog standard.

Only thing of note was he was pressed on the futures of Barry and Lescott and said that within a week he will understand their futures.
