I blame a relatively unimaginative mate. And not that original either, hence the 2. It'll do though. Phil

Inversion of my first name and my surname. Unfortunately there isn't a really interesting story behind it.

an old nickname that i had from school (don't ask!) UNO


Does it have anything to do with dangly bits? :unsure:

:P

There were/are a few usernames I always wondered about - yours was one of them :)


:lol: It really is very stupid....

When I first started playing football (at about the age of 12) everyone else had 'nike', 'umbro' and 'Reebok' boots.
Mine just said UNO across them so i didn't really fit in, and it then became a nickname (which i absolutely hated at the time - which consequently meant it got used more).
It didn't really go away and some of my mates still call me by the nickname 'UNO' these days - 15 years later!! Although i don't really mind it now ;)

LOl. I remeber that make, they were sh*t. My parents regularly bought me stuff like that :rolleyes: I remember having a pair of Pony trainers that had pink on them. what were they thinking.


Mine is because when i was about 13 my mate used to have a tropical fish tank. All his fish were dying of some fish disease, so we had to clean the tank out. Mate decided to splash me, all the water went in my eyes and i thought i also may die of the same disease the fish were dying of. Mates found this really funny and i am still to the day (13 years later) known as fishboy. Yeah. How great.

No no no - see that's just not good enough richy, because I have wondered about your name! :D Are we to assume that Roff is your whole surname and nothing but your surname?

It is indeed, my family were poor and could only afford four letters :(

Weird name does make a cheap numberplate though!
