Have we got the sh*ttest club nickname going?

[Dorset-Knob]

Auntie Vera...........

[Silver Fox]

How many Rovers....are there?

I can only think of Blackburn, Doncaster and Shamrock.

I'd of thought our resident expert on Rovers would of done better

[Sun Tzu]

Any idea what Barking's team is called ?

I'm not. And don't you bloody mention Huddersfield.

I presume you're making a wind up with your deliberate use of the word "of". Twice.

I think "Rovers" is supposed to be a nickname, not an actual state of affairs.

But they should be called the "Dogs." The Barking Dogs.

Bristol? Tranmere?

Surely The Barking Bollocks.

[Platypuss]

Barking Spiders or nothing.

[Four Of Clubs]

Any idea what Barking's team is called ?

... pretty dull really - according to Wiki they are called 'The Blues' - then again when I looked up Enfield Town a month or so back someone had been 'creative' with their updates - their nickname was supposedly : 'The Nobheads' and their capacity was stated as : "One Man and His Dog"!

I quite like Wantage Town's nickname - 'The Alfreds' and wonder if Wokkers fans are slightly embarrassed that they are now called 'The Satsumas'.

[Scylla]

So what do you suggest Floyders? An old-industry nickname, such as the Seed Sowers? Or a new-industry nickname such as the IT Technicians?

The Spread Sheet Warriors?

Good attempt, but Spread Sheet Warriors would encompass only a section of workers who utilise IT, mainly those in finance I suppose. Oracle do online systems encompassing spreadsheets, and they are a big company I suppose. But for me, thinking about it the Keyboard Warriors is more universal. And I also know there is a small company on Thames Valley Park which manufactures keyboards, which gives the name credibility.

All together now:

COOOOOME ONNNNNN YOU KEYBOARDS!!!

The PDP-11.

Didn't Roy Race leave Melchester rovers and join another club - presumably so the comic could still be called roy of the rovers. What was the name of the club he joined, before going back to Melchester Rovers?

[Colin Cheeselog]

It should be The Proclaimers, owing to our singing of ‘500 Miles’ at every opportunity.
