Fishy footballers
Please don't get the idea that I'm bored or anything, but I was just scanning the web and came across the news that Blues might face a 17-year-old striker called Tuna tomorrow which got me wondering how many footballers have fish-related names.
A quick trawl (what an appropriate word) of Google revealed a surprising number, including a left back with the wonderful name of Harry Haddock who played for Scotland in the 1950s.
There's the West Ham legend Geoff Pike and an NAC Breda player in Holland called Rafael Pike.
Then there's Wolves' midfielder Mark Salmon and I suppose you'd have to have Bert Troutman in goal. There's a boy called Matt Crabb playing for Eastbourne.
Stretching a point, I'd be tempted to play Sole Campbell in the middle of defence.
Any other names to complete a Fishy Footballers Eleven?

Shoal-a Ameobi.

Sorry
...and I guess we shouldn't forget the Blues legend, Gills Merrick.
