As long as it's not prefixed by "Russet", that shouldn't be a
problem... Unless our wingers need runs.

It’s an absolutely awful and unoriginal nick name

Sports teams are hardly reknowned for anything else
Add a “y” or an “o” or an “s” - or their initials - that’s
basicslly it.

It's not one that we've come up with. It's what he's been known
as for a long time. I guess that as Gusset was already taken
(Guscott) it was the next obvious choice

If you can provide a decent reason I will stop if not then get

I'm not the OP but I just don't like the use of nicknames by
people who don't actually know the person. Can't quite put my
finger on why, I just find it grates. If I was a public figure
and found strangers on the internet using my nickname I'd find
it slightly unsettling I think.

Sure, but this one just sounds particularly hideous.

That's pretty much how I feel about it - although I bet I've
done it at some point.
