Re-branding

The discussion about a new kit has inspired Mark to suggest rebranding ie renaming our team (don't know how well this will go down with the league secretary who's been beavering away on the new website but that's his problem).

Real Sociedad = Real Sociopath or Real Social-Dad

Real Zaragosa = Real 'ave-a-go-Sir

Real Valladolid- Real Invalid 

Any thoughts?

This website http://www.oldfootballshirts.com/en/teams/r/ will give you the names of lots of 'Real' team names for those of you wanting inspiration.

Response from Andy:
The best thing about playing (occasionally) for Real Madras was telling people who you played for.  It almost always raised a smile (apart from my wife who doesn't do football).

Anyway Real Wood does not, unfortunately inspire any such reaction, so I'm all in favour of injecting a bit of long-lost humour back into the name.

I think there's one obvious choice.  We all agree that we must move with the times and keep the name fresh and relevant.

So, on that basis I recommend Real Chennai.

For those of you not geographically inclined; Madras changed its name to Chennai in 1996.  Sadly many of the Indian restaurants in and around Bristol have not yet reacted to this change although I for one would happily order a Chicken or Prawn Chennai.  I'm sure the Redland Tandoori could be persuaded to reprint their menus.  After all, we put enough business their way.

Swifty's view:
Don't really have a view on the rebranding although the Iberian Peninsula does throw up a few possibilities...
