I can’t get Blackadder’s Mr Smith out my head

Yeah I think he did, it’s all very confusing! Wagner German style sounds more exotic and I think we will play with more flair as a result

        If you took Farke and Klopp and two ends of a scale Wagner seems slap bang in the middle (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Jan 3, 12:45:32

        interesting to note , that If David Wagner does get the job (NCFC) - ghostof barry butler, Jan 3, 11:07:51
        
        So that means it will be a 'v' on Radio Normal (n/m) (NCFC) - MonkeyPuzzle, Jan 3, 11:40:25
        
        Why would you expect it to be pronounced incorrectly? (n/m) (NCFC) - norwaay, Jan 3, 11:37:18
        
        American (step)father? (n/m) (NCFC) - paulg, Jan 3, 13:45:25
        
        No, it just means the guy introducing him pronounced it wrong. (NCFC) - APB, Jan 3, 11:35:09
        
        Pretty sure it’s the American version due to his stepdad like Robert (n/m) (NCFC) - stringersrevenge, Jan 3, 11:42:45
        
        Like I said, his prerogative, but Wagner is a German name. (NCFC) - APB, Jan 3, 11:51:53
        
        a bit more than his prerogative - it's his name!! (n/m) (NCFC) - paulg, Jan 3, 17:01:19
        
        I can’t get Blackadder’s Mr Smith out my head (NCFC) - stringersrevenge, Jan 3, 12:13:42
        
        Some info here (in German) (NCFC) - APB, Jan 3, 12:00:55
        
        Didn’t his mum marry his step dad before he was born? (n/m) (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Jan 3, 12:06:49
        
        Has he been on Jeremy Kyle? (n/m) (NCFC) - camcan, Jan 3, 12:33:58
        
        Announcer's Pronunciation Blunder (n/m) (NCFC) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Jan 3, 11:42:04
        
        Bloke from Huddersfield says wag-ner, so that's definitely the pronunciation 😄 (NCFC) - norwaay, Jan 3, 11:39:42
        
        Interestingly, we NEVER pronounced Farke's name like he does (NCFC) - jamesward, Jan 3, 11:59:04
        
        That’s his accent. (n/m) (NCFC) - APB, Jan 3, 12:01:20
        
        It's still surely correct if that's what he calls himself (n/m) (NCFC) - jamesward, Jan 3, 12:04:10
        
        It’s just an exaggerated e. In Manchester the word “city” doesn’t sound like it does here. (NCFC) - APB, Jan 3, 12:14:54
        
        In/correct is a very grey area (n/m) (NCFC) - APB, Jan 3, 12:17:26
