If it was UK there's a good chance that "Č" might be preserved to prevent the manager being pronounced as the Latin for "kitchen".

Branko ČulinaBranko Culina – Another follow up from Talk:Matthew Spiranovic#Requested move and Category:Australian people of Croatian descent. Culina was born in Yugoslavia but moved to Australia when he was 10 and hence is notable for exploits as an Australian where he is obviously referred to without the accent.

Well sorry but it reflects my lack of enthusiasm for the somewhat 1-sided approach. As regards "Australian where he is obviously referred to without the accent", this assumption about Australians may change. Sports papers don't have full font sets, in any country, but books in Australia have the same range of fonts as in UK and US. The important thing to remember here is that alphabets indicate pronunciation. The difference between "KooLEEna" and "CHOOLina" is a big difference. If it was UK there's a good chance that "Č" might be preserved to prevent the manager being pronounced as the Latin for "kitchen". But yeah, whatever, he was 10 when arrived in Aus in the 1960s, if it was someone more recent the assumption would be different. In ictu oculi (talk) 03:25, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
