One of the few teams not named after a town/city
Dublin soccer team TEK United
T.E.Kās name, as detailed by their crest, is an allusion to the 1882 Battle of Tell El Kebir, in which the British Army under Anglo-Irish General Garnet Wolseley, 1st Viscount Wolseley recorded a resounding victory over Khedivate of Egypt forces of Ahmed Ź»Urabi in what is now Egypt. While the club doesnāt directly take its name from the battle, its name is linked to that of a nearby local dairy company, Suttonās T.E.K. Dairy, whose founder had fought at the battle. More direct references to the battle can be seen in T.E.Kās badge, which features an image of the Spinx as well as the year 1882 and the words āEGYPTā and āTEL-EL-KEBIRā.

Aston is an area of Brum no?
That rules out Crystal Palace so.
they are obviously not a place, i assume Shamrock Rovers isnt a place either,
most people assume Raith is a place though*
- ive crunched the numbers
Shamrock rovers were named after the British battles against the Sham countries in the late 19th century. A southside club named for the British army seems right.
good one mate
Chimney Corner were a great staple of the results section from Northern Ireland Grandstand at 5pm on a Saturday.
