Silly names

I think it is time to come up with a team made up with silly names. For no reason at all other than I've got a headache. Obviously I should start from a Cardiff City perspective, and obviously that means my team has to have Billy Woof up front. Unfortunately, City is pretty short of other silly names in its history - and believe me I've checked. I have found T. Witts from a 1913 team, who I guess will have to go on the bench because I don't know what his position was but others with silly names aren't as good as some others I've found:

Andre Muff - Swiss striker (a bit of a diver, allegedly)
Johnny Moustache - Seychelles player who clearly wants to be a city manager in the future
Two Boys Gladstone Gumede - South African footballer
Bongo Christ - from the Congo
Danny Boffin - genius Belgian footballer
Ars Bandeet - Algerian (can't be real but it is)
Norman Conquest - Aussie keeper (better than Peter Zois)
Harry Daft - who played for England
Steve Death - Who I remember seeing in goal for Reading
Hilario - hilarious Chelsea keeper
Stefan Kuntz - less hilarious German
Yapi Yapo - Nantes player



and of course, David Ginola.

Try running that through an anagram software programme....
