I was wondering out loud whether there were any other flora-based team names and quick as a flash Mrs Cafcfan came back with Partick Thistle!

We kept thinking and added Notts Forest to the list and then got very silly. Aster Villa,  Bristol Clovers and Weeds Utd were quickly followed by Millwallflowers and there was some discussion about pansies and palace...

Any others?

    Are you seriously suggesting that Queens Park Hydrangers isnt a work of comic genius?
