Ive been chatting about this on here tonight, and it got me interested to ask this..
How many of us want our Barnsley FC team to have a 2nd name for example, like City or United or Town or Rovers or Athletic or Alexandra or even Argyle lol.
I think this is nonsense to be honest, and surely the only need for a 2nd name is in the case of the Manchester and Sheffield and Bristol clubs, who have two in each.
Rugby league went through this tedious stage some years ago to insist on a pathetic fan grabbing 2nd name, and I think the majority of fans don't like it. Wakefield who are my neighbours for example, are Trinity if they need the 2nd name, and they certainly aren't the Wildcats!!.
And Castleford who are also my neighbours, went further with the garbage Tigers name, and they even tried to change their stadium name to 'The Jungle'. Ohh pass the sick bucket ehh somebody, this is bordering on childish.
