| Keighley are just about to reach 20 years of being known as the Cougars.
I don't know any fan who doesn't refer to them as just Cougars.

It is amazing how that one has lasted despite being terrible and having been discarded by the club very quickly.

| Quote Conorgiantsfan="Conorgiantsfan"Does anyone actually attach themselves to a club nickname (Giants, Wolves, Rhinos)?
I've been wondering this for a while, as I hear the generation gap clearly between the fogies who call the teams Fartown/Wire/Leeds/Northern and the kiddies who say Bulls/Giants/Wolves/Rhinos.
Some team names are ridiculously awful, cheesy and naff. Also, the logos put the game to shame often. League of Ireland teams look better. Is it time we reviewed the look of clubs.'"
they will always be the likes of Loiners,Wires & Wakey etc to me cos' i'm an old f**t
the worst has to be the 'Warriors' - the mascot looks ridiculous IMO !

| Some stick, some dont.
With warrington, I call them the Wire and im only 23 however the wolves was a brilliant initiative, along with the 'Wolfpack' to get kids in when we were 6 or 7 years old and many many lifelong fans. In those years we averaged about 3500, I genuinely put the success in our attendances down to the hard ground work done 15 years ago and part of that wasthe reinvention of the wolves. Besides our town crest has a wolf on.

sounds like sound marketing from a well run club ? If only other clubs would follow suit ?

| Wire had no money in those days
We were saved from going bust by our current owner! Stroke of luck really.

| We were being called Tigers long before SL and adopting it into the club name. Honestly can't remember if I've ever heard anyone refer to us as the Glassblowers.
On a similar note: Huddersfield Barracudas anyone?

| We had a great nickname with Les Diables Rouges / The Red Devils, but unfortunately someone decided City Reds was better. You'll hear Reds used now and again but I'm yet to hear a Salford fan use the term City Reds.

| Personally I like the City Knights as a name. Wasps invokes bad memories however.
