Do you feel better for that ? Been called Rob Burrow's for years - rightly or wrongly.

[graveyard johnny]

Exactly that.

He is an inspiration whether you call him Burrow or Burrows.

I think Martin Offiah finally gave in to the inevitable and changed the pronunciation of his surname from "Offy-ya" to "Off-eye-a"

Which was once part of a storyline on Emmerdale Farm! Say what you want but we definitely don't have players with that sort of profile today!!

I know that.

You know that.

He knows that.

Nevertheless less, he's changed it to match the way everyone else pronounces it.

At one time I was Les Tonks' Sidestep but apostrophes stopped being supported in user names at one of the provider changes

Yup. Very possibly.  Anyway. I raised it only to comment that calling Rob Burrow Burrows is not a hanging offence.

The local police and magistrates frequently spell my surname incorrectly.

[Rioman]

And don't get me started on James Childs, James Child's .

[JohnM]

Sorry to disappoint you, but my surname isn't Livid.
