I`ve come to the conclusion that I am absolutely hopeless at this, my brain must not be wired to look at a random collection of worms and make a footballers name from them. Might as well be written in Chinese....................................

That might be where you are going wrong ;hmm

I write them out in a circle, there's also a few rules about were letters should go, what what letters go together - its a bit harder with names though.

suz ;ok

I look at how many/which vowels, compared to how many consonants and try to get an idea how many syllables I'm looking at too.

And fear not, my son is working on an "app" (lication) to solve all football related anagrams at the press of a button.................. This will not only include West Ham players (past and present) but players from other clubs, countries, and televisual presenters (both past and present) His code may need a little tinkering though as we tested it last night with:

hill my jim

and it returned:

Darcey Bussell

And where would all the fun in that be? I believe it already exists....I`ll see if I can find it....
