Brighton fans must be getting worried. "The Seagulls" doesn't carry much global appeal I wouldn't imagine. "Hawks" on the other hand are respected and feared wherever in the world you go, so how about "Brighton ****e Hawks"? The possibilities that keep dropping into my mind are endless ..........
I am guessing (as I have not really sat down and thought about it yet) that quite a few clubs could end up with unwanted names.....What would Ipswich Town become for example? (serious answers if possible), Ipswich Blues, Ipswich Town Blues?
A problem with Ipswich, and a host of others, is that their nicknames are quite bland or totally uninspiring, so to re-brand and re-name, there could be some very silly names appearing, n'est pas?
