Oh, that reminds me of a guy at my hometown club with a mop of blonde hair, always wore a bandana to training - Axel.

I had a classmate with the surname Bates. One person called him Master Bates one time. Everybody laughed then resumed calling him by his first name.
Also had a Bates in our year. We called him master Bates all the time. He hated it.

Dropped a couple of easy lineout takes early in the season and that was it: from that day on and forever more, I would be known as 'Teflon'.

I love threads like this. My favourite nickname to date was for the footballer Fitz Hall, whose team mates called him One Size.
It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom - for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.

Derek Asamoah was nicknamed "Flymo" by cobblers fans when manager Kevin Wilson explained to BBC Northampton that you pronounce his name "has-a-mower, like a flymo"
