And through that I then kind of learned, you know, if you have a difficulty, find the commentator who's from the country and let him run through the team with you.

And invariably, I would get people with Ireland.

Is it McGrath or McGrath?

Well, people are still saying Moran.

Yeah, there you go.

They haven't learned their lesson yet.

and the Netherlands were playing, and they'd brought in a new centre-forward.

And when the team sheet came, and I looked at it, I didn't have a clue how to pronounce this name.

And I looked all around for the Dutch, and they were nowhere to be seen.

They must have been at the other end of the commentary area.

So I had a brainwave, and I left the position, and I went out onto the concourse behind the stand, and I found a Dutchman in all the gear.

I said, how do you pronounce this name?

And it didn't sound right, and I thought he might be taking the mick.

So I found another Dutchman, and when the third Dutchman had confirmed his name,

I felt confident in saying Dirk Kout.
