Making an Arsenal of myself

A few days ago, I was voicing a 5 Live promo for last night's Arsenal / Barcelona match.

Those who know me appreciate that I know more about needlepoint than I do about football, but still, everyone knows how to pronounce the Arsenal Captain's name, surely?

Not I.

When faced with the words "Will Henry and the boys overcome the Spanish challengers...?" I enunciated a nice clear HEN-ry, and was shortly afterwards interrupted by guffaws from the producer.

For heaven's sake, why can't the man spell it "Henri".

I'll give him Va-va-voom, the big french runner bean.
