Then theres Sporting or maybe others can suggest some names.
Or should we just let it develope

Let me get this in before the shelbourne hordes do it. "Spingal"

Is that bird on your badge a raven? if so then its got to be the ravens.

Ravens
Ravens is a bit awkward, lest we wish to anger our overlords in the GAA. There's a GFC called Fingal Ravens in Skerries so we cant be doing with that. How about "The Vikings" to denote our scandanavian past and to understand the Irish name Fine Gall = band of foreigners
RA: "Tell you what, I know the lad's got a nudge early doors, but big Heskey's gone down like Buddy Holly there." -
Why has it got to be the ravens? We have three Martlets on our crest and we arent called "The Martlets". And the ravens sounds too american or something.

not mad about sporting. It seems a bit obvious. I think of the lisbon team when I hear that. What about the 300 sportins

Aye, but we've a more authentic claim to it..... Originally Posted by DmanDmythDledge

I look forward to seeing if the Ravens can challenge to get into the big four in the division, though who would they knock out of it - the Ships, the Castles, the Martlets or the, eh, Spire?
That question was less stupid, though you asked it in a profoundly stupid way.
Help me, Arthur Murphy, you're my only hope!

I dub thee "Athlete's Foot", as "Sporting Fungus" is just a bit too childish.
You can't spell failure without FAI -
Cant exactly be men because dunno what the hell Robbie Doyle is with those leggings! Originally Posted by Sporting Man

fingal
For someone who is "a girl" he did a pretty good job on the Athlone leftback (no7?) in the first half. Tore him asunder so he did and left him crying like a girl. Originally Posted by Dunny2K7

I think just "Fingal" will suffice as it the real power of the club is its claim to representing a community living in a well defined place.RA: "Tell you what, I know the lad's got a nudge early doors, but big Heskey's gone down like Buddy Holly there." -

The name The Ravens is not just because it is on the badge. The Raven is synonymous with the area. I like the Vikings for a similar reason. (synonymous with the area, just for the slow)

Do you read VIZ? Because spongle is also called man-pop, a jizzy substance that results from wristular relaxation. Hardly a good topic to get into... Originally Posted by Jerry The Saint

Just have to let it develope naturally. I'm using Sporting myself because it's just a handy way to describe them. Hardly a nickname though is it. Sporting over in Portugal are called the lions. Namely because they have a lion on their crest which signifies something no doubt.

How did Everton get the Toffeemen? I mean its not as if theres a sweet on their crest. ;]

From giving out free toffees at games.
