Can we please stop this?

Thanks.

I can just fix it so everyone who types "Gussy" sees "Gustard" if you like.

Why he’s called Gussy by plenty of people

Quinten Poulsen · « **Reply #3 on:** Sunday 19-Aug-2018, 18:19* »

Why is it spelt Gussy when it's pronounced Guzzy?

Alan G'stard

What’s your problem with it RR? It’s how he’s referred to by players coaches and other. Do ou object to Nev, Bomb or Minty? If you can provide a decent reason I will stop if not then get used to it.

Yeah it’s what the players call and presumably everyone has always called him.

Sports teams are hardly known for their imaginative nick names.

Hello new forum! (My third Quins message board - was most active on the one before CAW, I tend to loiter in the background these days).
Anyway, thought I'd pick a meaty topic to weigh in on.

I had rather presumed that he would take on the nickname The Colonel (after Cluedo, not the chicken).

Why??

Surely calling someone Gussy cannot in any way be deemed to be offensive.

Or are people just looking for a reason to be offended on other people's behalf again?

RodneyRegis · « **Reply #9 on:** Monday 20-Aug-2018, 11:24* »

No, I just think it's a dreadful nickname. Sounds like gusset.

I'm not offended on anyone's behalf.

Looks like another thread for the things unrelated section....

Just don't confuse him with Gussie Fink-Nottle, the PG Wodehouse character.

How is it unrelated?!

I'm surprised you bumped it, I thought you'd be on the 48 hour pun countdown.

TomBuckQuin · « **Reply #13 on:** Monday 20-Aug-2018, 16:36* »

More likely to hit 48 hours if it moves to the unrelated section? There's logic there.

I was quite hoping our new rugby manager would become known as Rhubarb, but I didn't want it to be me to suggest it.
