Pelegringo

[St. Brynjar]

Isn't he about to be named as Man City manager?

I must admit I did smile when I saw the name 'Pele-Gringo', this is a wind up right? But because I am a bit short of things to do at this ungodly hour, I had a quick gaze at Google.......... and lo a player called Pelegringo appeared.......

The story is from 2004, the 'star' player in question is Freddie Adu. As Duncan Ballantyne would say, 'Things just don't stack up, and for that reason I'm out'.

Doesn't 'Pellegrino' mean traveller/foreigner anyway..? and Gringo is obviously whitey in south america... The name is essentially 'foreign foreigner'.

LOL (again) at The Siege

[akranes]

I could go for a San Pelegringo right now

[sandman]

Can't believe we're re-signing Glen Little.

[Super Kevin Bremner!]

[Platypuss]

So Pelegringo is his "real" name?

I am currently trying to cut through the fog on this.

Which roughly translates to you trying to backtrack on a load of bullshit. As usual.

Backtracking and Bullshit are the preserves of other contributors, please learn or STFU!

So it's not bullshit?

Who is he, in that case?

[Royal With Cheese]

Even your "jokes" are shit.

Yes. This.

So, to cut a long story short, despite us being linked with every known striker who can score goals in the Championship, the most likely addition to our squad up front is a made-up Brazilian Wonderkid. Still, his price is as non-existant as he is so we'll probably offer him a Free Transfer. I love supporting a team who have Premiership aspirations, Premiership pockets but Division 2 length arms - Don't you?
