a question folks?  Why is Corluka known as Charlie? is it simply to do with the accented c in his name that makes it sound "ch"? or is there more meaning behind it?

From Hotspur magazine:

"So how did Charlie Corluka come about?

'People assume I picked it up over here because it's an English name but, in fact, I have been called that from the age of eight," he explains. "A team mate came up with it all those years ago and it's stuck.'"
