Scottish FA is said to be moving to stop the selling of team naming rights following the discussion between Stirling Albion fans and compare the market.com to rename the team Stirling Albion Meerkats

Would never happen in England.

Or could it?

    Would rather go out of business than sell out like that.

    What about Waterford Crystal Palace. Both pretentious beyond belief and both going down the pan - a perfect match.

    I'm disappointed. I thought an East Sterlingshire fan would have something to say about it!

    Nope, exactly the same!!...Even the badge is almost identical (simply the name underneath is different!)

    Right, Sorry FOD.
    Thought you wanted a "link" or something......

    "We" don't really worry about "Stirling", "We're" just shocked that The Shire have been in the Top 3 all season !

    Airbus UK play in the Welsh Premier(sic) League! Don't see that the SFA would have a chance of stopping this if Stirling wanted to do it.

    Looks like Stirling are on their way out as well. How can a club that gets crowds of about 1-2k end up 1.5m in debt?!
