I wouldn't use Cork or Limerick as examples of the positive implications of name changes.Originally Posted by oldyouth
Cork has had about twelve different clubs in the last 90-odd years, and it ended badly for almost all of them ! Limerick's had a few as well.
Successful clubs tend not to change name.

Pride, passion and commitment keeps a club strong and can take generations to forge, success can be only fleeting.
Manager: Fergal, have you your boots with ya?
Fergal: Ya, I have them here.
Manager: Ah good stuff, well give them to this man so, he forgot his!
Cryptic string of tweets by their Twitter as well. So far we have:

I'm guessing an X might be next (real Sherlock Holmes stuff here), looks like an announcement is imminent anyway.
As advised the other day. I mentioned Youths in an earlier post but had to do so for obvious reasons
On to Carlow IT now for tonight's friendly V Drogheda
Can someone please explain to those of us not in the loop what the hell is going on?
You no longer support Wexford Youths.
You now support Wexford Fc ( The club formerly known as Wexford Youths)
Wexford Youths FC is no more. Wexford FC will take their place in the SSE Airtricity 1st division in 2017. Remarkably, the new club will play in pink and black at Ferrycarrig Park and even more remarkably, the players have all agreed to play for the new club. Licence application was submitted in the name of Wexford FC and let's just say that no obstacles are expected
It's kind of like that time Derry City ran away from debts and started again.

It's a League of Ireland tradition and we are sticklers for tradition
Quite common in Italy too so it's a no brainer for Signor Wallace or whoever is nominally in charge if not him.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
Commodore 64 graphics crest?!!
I've never had any problems with the crest, not even the blatant plagiarism of Torino, but the one thing i can never abide is that garish font. What is the bloody story with that? It's hideous!
What colour is that?!
We call it Torino Maroon
Home jersey is black with pink trim, away jersey is the reverse
Deep Dáil Éireann Pink right there mate
Would have made more sense for them to change to purple and yellow I'd have thought.

I thought a good choice for the new name would be County Wexford FC
We've changed our name, not our code
Wexford FC is a club, not a county side
So now only Bray and Cabinteely have joined the First Division and not gone bust since. And neither has been particularly robust in the past couple of years.
But the FAI's solution to this issue is to expand the Graveyard and hope the problem goes away.
Makes sense.
