I might be being a little too "PC" but anything with an "S" for the second word ends up with us being the "SS".

If you don't know about the "SS" then ask your dad. Perhaps it is an age thing.

There aren't many "Z" letters in the league ......... so the Southend Zulus might suit. Could prove to be a very useful tool for inventive team strips and other marketing initiatives ................ :unsure:

Hash tag: I'llgetmycoat

The Southend postcode is SS and that hasn't been a problem. Mind you, the swastika club crest and the Blue Belles dancing in jack boots might raise a few eyebrows.
 
personally, I don't see what the fuss is about, after all, all teams have a nick-name, ie, shrimpers. Hulls' nickname is 'the tigers', so whats wrong with that.
That said, Americanisation needs to stop
 
Well, I see that Hull City have formally applied to be known as Hull Tigers which is pretty much in line with the sort of silly names that sports Teams in the USA get lumbered with.

So what could we ever be known as - ignoring the obvious Southend Shrimps which is hardly likely to strike fear in to the hearts of the opposition!

Have I missed something? Have we merged with Morecambe?! :angry:
