maysie Posted 24 August, 2011 Share Posted 24 August, 2011 From football rumours http://www.football-rumours.co.uk/search-.php Look I know that site is bollix and anyone can post on there, without credence or substance. I also realise that I may be lynched and/or the thread closed. However a pretty random player to be put forward and may fit in to the idea that we will get a CB out of the blue that has not been discussed beforehand. Anyways better than reading 20 threads about how the club is ****ed because we didn't sign a latvian centre back who QPR believe is worst than Gabbidon and Fitz Hall (who aren't all that great), and a centre back with a dodgy ankle.

Verbal Posted 24 August, 2011 Share Posted 24 August, 2011 Do you mean Filipenko? Ilipenko is a boxer, apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buctootim Posted 24 August, 2011 Share Posted 24 August, 2011 (edited) I thought that, too random to be made up - unless its a cunning double bluff...... Filipenko played for Belarus against England in 2008 and 2010, apparently did well both times from a few snippets Ive read. He's 6'4".

maysie Posted 24 August, 2011 Author Share Posted 24 August, 2011 And that is why I don't start threads. Yes I meant Egor Filipenko http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egor_Filipenko. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lighthouse Posted 24 August, 2011 Share Posted 24 August, 2011 If we're going to sign a Belarus international, I'd rather it was Igor Sh*tov so I can get his name printed on a shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maysie Posted 24 August, 2011 Author Share Posted 24 August, 2011 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/So_You_Think_You_Can_Dance_Scandinavia_finalists Egor Filipenko Egor Filipenko is a professional ballroom dancer from White Russia, but lives in Norway now. His first partner were Emma Hedlund, and they were safe week 1–4. Week 5, Egor got a new partner, Huyen Huynh, and then, both got eliminated. Egor is now a partner for many of the contestants now in Norway's version of Dancing with the Stars, named Skal vi danse? (Shall we dance?). I think this may be someone else.

BlakeySFC Posted 24 August, 2011 Share Posted 24 August, 2011 Another rumour on that site is Filip Sebo from Slovan Bratislava. Seems too random to be made up, but you never know with that site... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing is too random to be made up. You just need a certain level of boredom. That's how we ended up with threads about Carsten Janker and Jan Koller. Funny, but completely made up.

Yeah maybe - but Filipenko is potentially a credible HCDAJFU and a good shout as a left field rumour. You'd have to be really bored and a bit sad to research little known Belarussian defenders just tfor the vicarious thrill of a few fellow saints fans discussing him.

Draino76 Posted 25 August, 2011 Share Posted 25 August, 2011 I thought it was 'Igor'? Thank you in advance as I was writing a birthday card with the incorrect spelling for my brand new Polish step son. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The9 Posted 25 August, 2011 Share Posted 25 August, 2011 I notice in the photo that Gerrard is hardly busting a gut to support Theo's forward surge' date=' christ England are ****e.[/quote'] A mere cursory glance at the pitch markings shows that Gerrard is already waiting just outside the edge of the opposition area and therefore that Theo is almost on the goalline and Gerrard is perfectly placed to move into space arriving late into the box. What do you want him to do, stand on the edge of the 6 yard box and make a bursting run through the back of the net, over the ad boards, into the crowd, up the stand and out into the car park ?

The9 Posted 25 August, 2011 Share Posted 25 August, 2011 (edited) I thought it was 'Igor'?. It's Ягор in Belarussian, so I'm pretty sure any translation from Cyrillic text is going to be phonetic based on a local pronunciation that may use sounds that can't be recreated exactly in English and therefore spelling will be entirely at the whims of the custom for phonetic conversions at the time. As an example "Andrei" Kanchelskis (Russian : Андрей, Ukrainian Андрій) and "Andriy" Shevchenko : (Ukrainian : Андрій - the same) Same Ukrainian spelling of their first name, both born in Ukraine but different eras, and different spellings used. Though it's worth noting Kanchelskis may have chosen to use the familiar Russian to English conversion as he played for Russia internationally even after Ukrainian independence). The long and short of it is it's a phonetic conversion from a different set of characters, so you can spell it any way the people in the country you're in will recognise. Some Igor/Ihor/Egor/Igors : Igors Stepanovs (Latvian : Igors) Yegor Titov : (Russian: Егор) Ihor Belanov (Ukrainian in USSR) : (Ukrainian: Ігор, Russian: Игорь) Igor Biscan : (Croatian, uses the same "Western" alphabet ) : Igor Edited 25 August, 2011 by The9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger Posted 25 August, 2011 Share Posted 25 August, 2011 Well he just qualified for the champions league last night so can't see him giving that opportunity a miss. Drawn in the group: Group H: Barcelona, AC Milan, BATE Borisov, Viktoria Plzen So the prospect of playing against Barcelona, AC Milan and putting yourself in a window..."nah, f^ck it..I'll play against Blackpool and Peterborough instead...".
