[Closed] A.P.McCoy ????

I've never heard of the bloke- why would I have? I ride bikes.

You limit yourself to only having an interest in things that you yourself do. How odd...

I do have some outside interests. Sometimes I watch the rodeo on Extreme.

If we're supporting people on the basis of "well at least he rides something" should we not also be supporting Beckham!!!

AP is short for Anthony Peter. Tony, obviously, is short for Anthony. His friends and those in the industry call him either AP or Tony.

I've never heard of him referred to as anything other than Tony though until very recently, so I wondered if there was a reason that they started doing it, like when Andy Cole decided he wanted to be Andrew Cole.

A lot of Irishmen seem to adopt their first 2 initials as a sort or first name [& cricketers for some reason}

Maybe it's something to do with other family members having the same name?
