The Original OTIB Posted August 25, 2023 Report Share Posted August 25, 2023 Sorting out a boiler problem today and noted what appears to be an expansion vessel labelled Varem Bovolenta. Italian, apparently, sounding like a no nonsense centre back to me. Put me in mind of when I used to think footballer every time I saw a Hertz Van Rental vehicle. Dutch winger for me. Any others suggested by everyday items? Should lighten the mood away from the Lansdown/Pearson conspiracy nonsense. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pongo88 Posted August 25, 2023 Report Share Posted August 25, 2023 Melton Mowbray (the home of wonderful pork pies) sounds like a rather upmarket sort of person. Far to upper class to play precessional football but, possibly, could play as an amateur got Corinthian Casuals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WWred Posted August 25, 2023 Report Share Posted August 25, 2023 Bradley Stoke - Definitely a tough tackling Left Back, deemed to short to play his preferred position at Centre Back.
