Nobody – and I mean nobody – calls Chelsea “the Pensioners”. Newcastle East End took over Newcastle West End, and adopted the United name in recognition of the merger.Minnesota United is formerly NSA Minnesota Stars. You often here “Come on you Gunners!” screamed at the games and it’s all over Arsenal marketing and merchandise!I’d actually be interested in knowing more about the “Rovers” and “Wanderers” suffixes. It was mentioned on Radio 5. That’s why there are dinner ladies! I don’t have the answer. But it seems as if it has overtaken the official club name itself.Nothing says “Hornets” like a moose logo and Elton John. Archibald99 22:09, 2 March 2007 (UTC) I think it should be included - the fact that many Rangers fans find it derogatory surely shows that it is commonly used, largely by fans of other Scottish teams. The rugby club were nicknamed the Red Devils and with United formally training in Salford the nickname transferred over.The name Magpies originates from the clubs iconic black and white striped kit, where as ‘The Toon’ comes from a local pronunciation of town.A fairly straightforward nickname that originates from the large connection with the pottery industry in North Staffordshire.In 1997 when Sunderland moved to the Stadium of Light the clubs supporters were also given the opportunity to vote on the clubs official nickname. The “Gunners” name probably started in the Royal Arsenal time – and they were certainly called the Gunners during the Woolwich Arsenal period.However like all nicknames the name has moved along with the times and the fans of Arsenal now refer to themselves as Gooners, not Gunners – indeed “Gunners” is only ever seen in the press – the fans don’t use it at all.What are you on about?

It was only natural that that use of nicknames would progress to sporting events and, more specifically, teams. Some are not.There is no sport that allows history, politics, and even religion to all be played out on the same field quite like soccer More details about them are at It would make sense,if two or more teams from the same area or town got together to form one team. He later evaded custody by posing as a medical expert. They’re deceptive, just like the play of Riyad Mahrez and Jamie Vardy.The nickname is cool and easy to use. Whether it be opposition fans giving a team a derogatory name in order to annoy their rival fans or a name from the supporters themselves, keen to make the club their own, virtually all football teams have a … Some of them are good. So much history and meaning behind these names, unlike the lame-o garbage in MLS. @WatfordFC | TwitterYou don’t come across too many canaries in sports. Way back in 1886, workers at Woolwich Arsenal Armament Factory decided to form a football club called Dial Square.
The connection grew even further in the 1960s when a black cat lived at Sunderland’s Roker Park ground and was cared for by the club.Spurs is obviously a shortened version of Hotspur which comes from the clubs connection with Shakespeare character Harry Hotspur. They even have cheerleaders.Foxes are kind of cool. the Tennessee Titans. The most bizarre explanation claims that an old ground was built next to a pig farm and stray balls would end up with the pigs.The nickname comes from the well known Chelsea Pensioners – war veterans living in a nearby hospital. Southern folk should know we don’t have ‘lunch’ up here… we have dinner. the origin of the names of the cricket teams is thought to be for a similar reason as i noted above namely that in the early existence of the cricket club they did not have their own cricket pitch on which to play/practice and were thus forced to constantly move their home matches to temporary pitches or play away matches … again thus the Rovers/Wanderers moniker.Rovers or Wanderers usually refers to a club that had no “home” pitch (or had to share one).I only found out this weekend that Chelsea were nicknamed The Pensioners.
