Can we extend this to silly sounding club names too, then we can include Deportivo Wanka

Disappointed that Austrian team SK Sturm Graz dropped 'The Arnold Schwarzenegger Stadium' for a more corporately named - UPC Telekabel Stadion.
Rumour has it that a poll took place to allow fans to name the stadium referencing famous Austrians, Arnie only just won, he pipped Adolf Hitler.
This was mainly thanks to a campaign from meddling rival fans all co-ordinating their votes for the fuhrer.
BTW Arnie's name was dropped because of his supportive views of the death penalty in California.

Moving the goalposts slightly to nicknames, are Clyde not called something stupid like "Bully Wee" or similar?

Wolfgang Wolf used to manage Wolfsburg (to further derail the thread).

Wankhede. And it is pretty wanky. All the timber stain on the seats came off on the back of my shirts.

For some reason I used to giggle at the team Purple Sanga, from Kyoto.
Always used to line them up as a friendly in old Championship Manager games. Them, The Met Police, Hearts of Oak and Qwa Qwa Stars nearly always made up my pre-season calendar, it was a punishing schedule.

Most of the grounds in India appear to be crumbling. The Bangalore stadium looks very decrepid.
