Why your username?

Featured Replies

I just searched, couldn't find anything on this but if it has been already done then I apologise.

Why your username?

Some will be self explanatory but what is behind yours?

I think we had one aaaages back but we've had a heap of new users, so why not?

I used to be Dangerous Pie (habit of walking into things, pie is self-explanatory) until one day I couldn't log in any more. By that time I had moved to Germany, so I replaced pie (they don't do pies in Germany) with sausage (they do however love a good sausage).

Why, what did you think? B)

Mines not so obvious, I'm simply not Joe but Notts-Joe.

It's my online persona from a nickname I've had for years, it surprises some and confuses others who know me but it's not done to hide myself or fool people.

A field where dreams become reality.

Mines pretty self explanatory, when I joined PON Stan was my favourite player, I had a different username 'over there' but I felt like it didn't represent me anymore as it was an old nickname from when I was a youngster

One of my sons, Ben, was Notts crazy growing up.....we both read MAD but he wanted to post on there (I wasn't too bothered, plus too busy)

I set up an account for him and used his nickname from his Private School (he was the last of 7 English children and I was determined that at least one of them was educated privately)....it cost me an arm, and a leg but he promised to look after me in my senility...not long now!

They all had "silly" nicknames for each, Ben's was Tarquin.....but .he was given a straight red after only a few weeks, he was only 14 but made a silly joke about executing one particularly "lazy" player....as half-time entertainment to boost crowd attendances, it worked at Tyburn?

I wrote in to the MODs to explain he was only 14 and a good kid etc, they removed the ban...but Ben is stubborn, like me...and he never posted again.

Some years later, I went into exile in Mexico and fearing for my sanity as a single ex-pat in a Spanish-speaking country, revived the old Mad account in order to at least type English.

I became a regular poster there but got a ban after @Elite_pie and @andy6025 plus several other posters got banned one night, mine was for suggesting we all try PON instead    hahaha....they offered to reinstate but I'm stubborn like I said.

Now I'm here, tough luck guys-n-gals.

My username is one I just didn't give a lot of thought to when I chose it!  I first signed up to footy messageboards on the old Rivals site many years ago where I posted as Nuthall Pie.  When that site closed down I moved to MAD, but my previous name had already been taken.  My second passion after Notts is horse racing, and I was a member of the Elite Racing Club (see avatar).  I had combined the two interests registering as Elite Pie on lots of betting accounts etc, so I just carried it on without thinking.  Not the best idea, as many have taken it to mean that I think I am upper class!!!!  I was born on a council estate as the son of a coal miner and hate the whole 'class' thing.  I've used the name for so long now I just can't be bothered to change it.

What right do you have to tell me I'm wrong?  You're not my Granddaughter.

Mine is as simple as you can get really.First name Pete,living in Ireland the last 17yrs.Anybody who knows me over here,wouldnt believe I have Irish in my username,as they know I,m a English born n bred,the craic is great though.

I'm Grandma to @super_pie  (Jake),Ellie  and Ava ( @notts-joe and  @cheeky~k8 's 3 kids)  and also to Harry,( @william1984 and  @Harrys_Mummy 's son. } Grannypie  just slips off the tongue easier than Grandmapie.

I never listen to news broadcasts or read newspapers so my son considers that I would be better suited to living in medieval times. My given name is Michael but my London family called me Mickey.

Fairly mundane really.    (Looking forward to a thrashing by the mighty Oldham tonight).

Guess where I used to live? It is said by many locals that the only people who like Tucson were not born there.

I get homesick for Tucson sometimes cos it's in the middle of a desert, 300 days of sunshine a year.

Where do you live now?

Yes, mines a boring nickname one, but not used it on any other sites, so can't be incriminated, I mean identified.
