silly named football teams

You got to love lower league football teams and their silly names. If some of these teams would ever make it to the premier league everyone would probably laugh and not take them seriously. Sometimes in football you need a little bit of humour and I will try to provide some. The farther down you go the better they get...

Vauxhall Motors
Weston-super-Mare
Tonbridge Angels- promoted to Conference South
Tooting & Mitcham United
Folkestone Invicta - relegated to Isthmian Division South
Metropolitan Police- currently you do not need to be a policeman to play for them; promoted to Isthmian Premier Division
Walton Casuals
Corinthian-Casuals
Horsham YMCA relegated to level 9
Stocksbridge Park Steels
Cammell Laird
Harrogate Railway Athletic
Prescot Cables
Leigh Genesis - relegated to level 9
Rushall Olympic - promoted to Northern Premier League
Rainworth Miners Welfare - good that someone supports the miners... oh wait there is no other mining anymore
Beaconsfield SYCOB relegated to level 9

Celtic

I've always thought Accrington Stanley was a terrible name for a club.

Obsessed

There is a lot in Egypt...

Military Production
Border Guards
Arab Contractors
Police Union
Zefta (which also can mean "garbage")
Bani Swaif Telephones
Aluminum
Abu Qurqas Sugar
Grand Hotel
Abu Qir Fertilizers
Hammam (which means "bathroom")

New York Red Bulls.

Not even in the correct state plus having a energy drink in your name.

These names are terrible and hilarious.

Says the Crew supporter.

For reals Dena, Columbus Crew sounds like a group of break dancers.

Club Deportivo Chivas USA is pretty terrible too, I mean for an official name it's terrible.

Tottenham Hotspur, just weird as fuck and not very intimidating.

Semen Padang

That's just the name of the town

Go Ahead Eagles !

Nothing really from the home country, every club is named after the city or the region they are in. Although some in lower leagues are named after the year, sadly rarely something weird in the public leagues.

Red Bull NY

Total Network Solutions used to be called The New Saints.

Edit: Reverse that.

Manchester United. Sounds like a gay nightclub

He said it about both.

He said it about City, not United.

No, he said it about both.

Laos teams such as Moon The Night FC

Churchill Bros of India

Citizen of Hong Kong

Home Utd of Singapore

Oh ok, I guess a lot of English towns have some rather odd names. Also a mare is an adult female horse which makes this a little bit funny in my opinion.
