This reminds me of a joke..the beetles were playing the earwigs in a top of the table clash.They all had their names on their shirts except Ofuc*inghell the youngest earwig.The name was deemed too rude to write so they only put the first letter 'O' on it.
The crowd were shouting and encouraging their players..C'mon
Rooney...there's only one Charlton ..etc.The young earwig was substituted in the 2nd half and was very downcast in the dressing room.He told the manager "Sob..no-one could call my name..sniff ,all the others were encouraged..sob."
The manager replied .."Don't be soft Ofuc*ingkell..listen..they're calling your name now.." He listened and heared the crowd chanting...."Ere we go, ere we go , Ere we go. "(earwig 'O')

Probably when they first learned how to spell their own names.

...or when they realised that the players were all so thick they couldn't remember their own names!
