==Vandalism==

Please do not add unhelpful and non-constructive information to Wikipedia, as you did to John Halls. Your edits could be considered vandalism, and they have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. robwingfield ^«T•C» 14:21, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't remove valid warnings from your talk page - by all means archive them, however. robwingfield ^«T•C» 17:22, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"Big Time Charlie" was the nickname given to Halls during the end of his spell at Stoke because of his excessive wage demands, poor attitude and his well known desire for a move to West Ham (which never materialised). While I agree with removing it because it isn't exactly neutral, it was however a common nickname for Halls even if not a very nice one. Dave101 17:55, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough... I don't think it's fair to have that as the only entry for his nickname though! robwingfield ^«T•C» 19:38, 16 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
