What sort of crap nickname is...

[Simster]

.."the glaziers"?

What an absolutely shit effort. Probably the shittest nickname EVER. Worse than Reading's "the biscuitmen".

And following on from this, Crystal Palace changing their nickname from the Glaziers to the Eagles was sure the most plastic thing EVER done in football (apart from "AFC Bournemouth" and the whole MK Dons thing obviously). I mean, if you're going to change your admittedly gash nickname, at least change it to something RELEVANT. What relevance is an eagle to the shittest part of suburban Surrey? At least our two nicknames - the Dolphins and then the Seagulls - both reflected our coastal location.

Palace really are a plastic outfit and well worth reminding them of the fact some time next season I think. If they're not in division THREE.

I've always thought "the Chairboys" was quite poor.

Ones named for your town's major industry are usually fine: Brewers, Millers, Hatters etc. But obviously Wycombe couldnt make that work so they came up with a random piece of furniture and added "boys". Brilliant

 

[Simster]

Is "the chairboys" really as poor as "the glaziers"?

I think you know the answer to that, Edna.

But Wycombe is FAMOUS for chairs.

They even build arches from chairs.

Good find, Brackers. So we're back to laughing at Palace's SHIT nickname then.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Oh definitely not. I presume it's something to do with the original Crystal Palace. A flashy, extravagant institution which was much hyped and admired at first only to go down dramatically in flames as soon as the heat was on.

Not unlike the Team of the Eighties.

But a lot of the founding team were made up for men who worked in a furniture (mainly chairs) factory. Or something like that at least.

I love those traditional nicknames. I prefer the Glaziers to the eagles any day. Wasn't it related to the original Crystal Palace. I wish we had kept "Deck-chair Attendants".

In ancient Croy there were lots of early examples of 'sky scrapers'. These are still there today, and have ancient inscriptions on them called 'graffiti' - but they needed a lot of glass fitted, hence 'The Glaziers'.

It's a fine name, but they are just asking to be SMASHED.

We should put these glaziers to work.


(Oh, and by the way simster - utter drivel as always, you have a droopy face and a shit job working for someone else)

I will enjoy seeing our NEW nickname being used on radio, television and in newspapers; 'The WINNERS'.

Yes, I see this nickname sticking.

Beard? I haven't had a beard in decades, and that was in the US.
My teeth are really rather good, despite school dentists in the 60's.
And you are interesting? Bwaahahaha!

You might be a bit mentally deficient simpster, and you are DEFINITELY boring. Thanks for responding to the BEST part of my post though
