It was game 19, I think. 19 without a win, then we hammered Plymouth midweek.
Think we then won five of the next six games, only losing to Leeds in that run of games.

LOUM TCHAOUNA - pronunciation

I don’t think I’ve ever heard a player’s name pronounced in as many ways. We’ve had Tuna, Choowana, Choonia, Choo-ah-ny…and many more.

It’s Chow-na

If we ever find a song for him, can we use his proper name? :-)
