    Haha, he's now 12 foot 9!!! This is brilliant, and wasn't me on that occasion. Right - awa for a pint. He'd better be 84 foot tall by the time I look in this evening.

    Sounding like Dehk, I think.

    Pretty sure the Dutch would pronounce it like Fvan Dehk.

    ij in Dutch or y as we sometimes translate it to like Kuijt/Kuyt Van Nistelrooij/Van Nistelrooy. Its not the same as our i or y sound. More like a eugh sound.

    Excellent, sounds very promising mate. I look forward to seeing him take a few free kicks and shots as from what I have seen and heard he has a good shot on him:50:
