[edit] Name
Who the hell thinks it's pronounced "Bone-er"? I've never heard that, and I'm inclined to think it's someone having a laugh, especially as nowhere else has he ever been called "Packie Boner". But if anyone can prove otherwise, then please do. Dan Kerins 01:09, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
It's pronounced "Bonn - er"
Having just listened to the interview linked to from this page, the interviewer says Bonn-er and Packie doesn't correct him on it - but does correct him on where he was born! That's good enough for me. Dan Kerins 12:25, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
Well that's not good enough for me. For years I watched Packie on the telly playing for Ireland and for Celtic. I have lived in Ireland all my life and I have never, ever, EVER heard anyone call him bone - ur. It's a bit of a wind up my friend and you've been taken in! I'll continue to change it back to the correct way if you decide to change it.
You've completely missed my point - I'm agreeing with you, whoever you are. (Don't forget to sign your posts). I'm the person who first mentioned that "Bone-er" was the result of someone having a wind-up. Dan Kerins 17:12, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Signing for Celtic
Does anyone know if he definitely signed from Leicester or Keadue Rovers? I've read conflicting reports... SeanMack 16:29, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Keadue's site (shield your eyes! the horrors!) says he signed from them. --62.77.181.1 01:04, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
