Yes, the club name bears the shame of having moved across town for money. The MK Dons of the 20th century. Port Vale is the only other one without a place name but they never moved, I don't know where the name comes from. | ||

Crystal Palace is also a bit weird - named after a building that was moved, then burnt down, which also gave its name to an ill defined area of London that straddles three boroughs, which is not where the club plays any more… | ||

ahhhh... i never thought that Port Vale wouldn't be an actual place - the internet seems to think there was a Port Vale Wharf though: https://www.thepotteries.org/walks/longport/15.htm https://portvalenostalgia.co.uk/history/ | ||
