Hackneyisblue Posted 12 September 2008 Posted 12 September 2008 ... Emile Heskey not fooking Bruno. He hated the nickname Bruno. Question to those that use the term Bruno: Do you think all blacks look alike? If he ever thought about coming back and everyone started chanting Bruno he'd probably go elsewhere.
Fox You Forest Posted 12 September 2008 Posted 12 September 2008 So basically your calling me a racist?
The People's Hero Posted 12 September 2008 Posted 12 September 2008 I thought he was called Bruno because of his admiration for Mr N'Gotty?
Hackneyisblue Posted 12 September 2008 Author Posted 12 September 2008 He doesn't look anything like Bruno, they just both happen to big and black. And he doesn't like the nickname Bruno.
Hackneyisblue Posted 12 September 2008 Author Posted 12 September 2008 So basically your calling me a racist? I'm calling you a bit daft for not thinking it through and realising that it may actually be insulting to our Emile.
The People's Hero Posted 12 September 2008 Posted 12 September 2008 He liked being called Bruno... here's my source. Emile Heskey: 'I loved being called Bruno during my time at Leicester. Frank Bruno is a man I respect, admire and fancy a little bit.'
Fox You Forest Posted 12 September 2008 Posted 12 September 2008 I'm calling you a bit daft for not thinking it through and realising that it may actually be insulting to our Emile. Well silly me that's alright then.
Alexikokopops Posted 12 September 2008 Posted 12 September 2008 Question to those that use the term Bruno:Do you think all blacks look alike? No, I think he's built like a brick shithouse. Like Frank Bruno. Dean Ashton gets called a fat Annie Lennox by opposition fans. Maybe they think all white people look the same? Shit! Racism is rife!
20mj08 Posted 12 September 2008 Posted 12 September 2008 what a pointless topic ... the missus not giving you what you want or you just having a pointless argument for the sake of it ?

Maybe they think all white people look the same? Shit! Racism is rife! Exactly, opposition fans call Ashton that, so why the fook do home fans want to use the term Bruno about Emile Heskey
Hackneyisblue Posted 12 September 2008 Author Posted 12 September 2008 what a pointless topic ... the missus not giving you what you want or you just having a pointless argument for the sake of it ? Just pointing out that you are actually patronising Heskey, if you want to get the hump for being pulled up then so be it. If you're wrong why argue? Besides your missus is giving me planty thankyou very much. ;-)
Bert Posted 12 September 2008 Posted 12 September 2008 Exactly, opposition fans call Ashton that, so why the fook do home fans want to use the term Bruno about Emile Heskey Because they can? Again, how do you know he doesn't like Bruno?
Alexikokopops Posted 12 September 2008 Posted 12 September 2008 Exactly, opposition fans call Ashton that, so why the fook do home fans want to use the term Bruno about Emile Heskey I think you missed my point. It was about people not thinking all black people look the same because they call Heskey "Bruno" just like they don't think all white people look the same beause they liken Dean Ashton to Annie Lennox. The Lennox-Ashton one is insulting because they're saying a man looks like a woman with ridiculous hair. However it's not that insulting to be likened to Frank Bruno (unless you think it's insulting to be likened to a black man ). I've never heard that he doesn't like the name "Bruno", where did you hear it?

Trumpet Posted 12 September 2008 Posted 12 September 2008 I think the politically correct nickname for Heskey should have been: "Bruce Forsyth".
The People's Hero Posted 12 September 2008 Posted 12 September 2008 I propose a name change for him from Bruno to another archetypal 'black' name.
Alexikokopops Posted 12 September 2008 Posted 12 September 2008 I propose a name change for him from Bruno to another archetypal 'black' name. What about Leroy? Or Tyrone?
The People's Hero Posted 12 September 2008 Posted 12 September 2008 What about Leroy? Or Tyrone? What about Leroy? Or Tyrone? I was thinking Winston, but Leroy or Leo sound good to me. Leroy it is.
Koke Posted 12 September 2008 Posted 12 September 2008 I propose a name change for him from Bruno to another archetypal 'black' name. Jermaine. It can't get any blacker than that.
Alexikokopops Posted 12 September 2008 Posted 12 September 2008 LEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEROY LEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEROY
James. Posted 12 September 2008 Posted 12 September 2008 As an aside I think Leeroys are magnificent creatures.
Darkzzz_ Posted 12 September 2008 Posted 12 September 2008 What a silly thoughtless topic. I am so ashamed about this thread, I will now proceed to chop my arms off to stop me giving any sort of reply to some of the comments made here. This is nonsense. Bye arms....

This is nonsense. Bye arms.... I'm pretty sure that Emile Heskey would think that most of the posts on this subject are thoughtless as well. I had always thought theterm Bruno was suspect and not flatering and this was confirmed by someone on another board who knows him.
