Tough Question for you all...

Can you name every different team in England (Prem, Championship, 1 & 2, and Conf), that have different surnames.

 

*There are 24 different clubs with different surnames - Name them*

Hotspurs

Villa

Alexandra

Palace

Rangers

Argyle

North End

Wednesday

Vale

Forest

Dons

Orient

Diamonds

Green

Stanley

Island

Harriers

Alan Sugar also made the error of calling the glory,glory boys Tottenham Hotspurs at the press conference when he took over the club.This obviously got him off to a bad start with the fans.

I think they were called Tottenham Hotspurs at one time but my oldest Spurs programme is their 3rd Round cup tie with Burnley in January 1963...they were called Tottenham Hotspur by then.I dont know when they dropped the s but will look into this interesting topic.

 

Redbridge

Northfleet

when did Hartlepool stop calling themselves Hartlepools?

They were Harltepools in 69/70

 

and Hartlepool in 71/72

 

is the nearest i can get.

when did Hartlepool stop calling themselves the monkey hangers ?

In that case we should start calling ourselves Boltons. actually, that reminds me - when I first moved to London I noticed a boozer in west kensington called The Boltons and made a mental note thinking I'd nip in sometime just for the sake of it. Fortunately, before I'd had the chance someone had pointed out that is was one of those - by no means uncommon in that part of in west london - boozers favoured by gardeners of an uphill variety....

goodnight

The Boltons is actually the name of a street in West London. It is where all the top people live.

Hartlepools United were formed in 1908.

In 1968 they became Hartlepool AFC.

in 1977 they became Hartlepool United.

 

Just going to get my anorak.

The 1969/70 Chesterfield v Bradford Park Avenue programme refers to them as Hartlepools United in the fixture list.

 

This i now believe is incorrect and they were called Hartlepool at this time as Biff states.

 

Chesterfield will now be getting a strong letter of complaint for peddling misinformation.

 

Programmes are the bible of football and should be 100% accurate.

Chesterfield will now be getting a strong letter of complaint for peddling misinformation.

 

I'd love to be a fly on the wall when they receive that letter :D
