OK, so who pronounces it K-hill and who pronounces it kAhill?
[/quote]
i remember when Tim Cahill first went to Everton i pronounced his name k-hill in front of my dad and he did his whole derisive act on me, insisting that it's an irish name and should be pronounced 'ky-el', but i've always ignored him because he's basically an idiot. is it even an irish name? any of our irish posters able to confirm?

It's pronounced kAhill here as Gene says(Although it does depend on what part of Ireland you're in).
I read somewhere that Tim pronounces it Car-hill though for some reason.

what sound does 'kAhill' represent?
Emmm... In thinking about it a bit:
kA as in the first bit of the word "cash"
hill is actually just like hill except maybe with one 'l' instead of two, in other words stopping a little short on it.
Although I have no idea how you pronounce either the word cash or hill, so that may be no help.
Edit: Or just what Pesam said

so like the first ka in kaka?
so if i say it exactly like i'd say kaka (kacker, more or less) but with hil isntead of the cker, it should be about right?
not that i'm actually going to say anything different from k-hill, mind.

Yeah, that's about right.
Fairly sure it's an Irish name originally(probably an Anglised version of the Irish name Cathal - which is pronounced slightly different again).
But you can pronounce it whatever way you want...

Is it the same for Tim?
[/quote]
I think he said it was Car-hill. But everyone in England will pronounce it K-hill, and everyone in Ireland will pronounce it Ka-hill.

jolly good. tbh i only really care so i know my dad was wrong, which he pretty much always is. it'll give me an excellent excuse not to buy him a birthday or xmas present this year, if he bothers to complain that is, which he better fucking hadn't if he knows what's good for him.

EXCLUSIVE: Warnock plots summer raid to take Cole and Jenas to Loftus Road
By SAMI MOKBEL
Queens Park Rangers are considering a sensational double swoop for Joe Cole and Jermaine Jenas as they look forward to life in the Barclays Premier League.
Neil Warnock meets with the club's hierarchy on Thursday to discuss plans for the summer and moves for the England pair are high among his priorities.
Liverpool forward Cole has endured a nightmare first season at Anfield after his free transfer from Chelsea last summer.
The 29-year-old is likely to be allowed to leave this summer and Warnock is ready to explore the option of bringing him back to London on loan.
Speculation over Adel Taarabt's future continues to linger and Cole is seen as a potential like-for-like replacement for the Morocco forward - though any deal would depend on Liverpool taking on a portion of his £90,000-per-week wages.
------------------
OMG no, don't raid us! Please, leave us alone...
Don't take Cole he's err ,err a good player?
We're not gonna make it without him. Please, take anyone else, take Gerrard but don't take Cole.
We can't accept £5 Million it's too little, he's got two legs and he's English. He's at least worth
£15 Million. Please don't leak it to the press we don't want any other teams to think he's available.

Jermaine Jenas is rubbish.
[/quote]
He's hardly rubbish, just not as good as made out by the London press.

Every season there seems to always be a player that is hyped up by the press to an embarrassing degree. Somehow they're always linked to us and more often than not they end up being shit.
Case in point, Steve Sidwell. Had a good season at Reading, suddenly he's a world beater and Chelsea buys him. Where's he now? Fulham.
How about David Bentley?
Gareth Bale?
The talk now is about players like, Charlie Adam, Matt Jarvis etc
Can we just pass on these over-hyped one hit wonders?
A player hits a patch of form and suddenly he's the best player in the Premier League?
