Paul Smyth

Post by y o y o y »

How do you pronounce Smyth
Richie Wellens and Matt Porter say Smythe
Others say Smith
Which is the correct way. How does Paul Smyth pronounce is own surname?

What do you call him?

I call him little Smith

It is Smith but with a y.
As you quite rightly put, to pronounce it the other way would require an e on the end.

No that is disrespectful.

Mods please ban this Boarder for excessive negativity against player and club.

He can't say that sort of stuff about a guy who scored that cracking goal the other week. Made my season that did.

I think he pronounces it as Smith. Personally though I call him Smythe to differentiate him from Harry Smith.
