Secondly and as ever you are utterly clueless yet you speak with an arrogance way beyond your knowledge. Since turning back to Trinity it has been met by universal acclaim across the district. Merchandise sales have roughly doubled or so I'm told though I only need to look to see it.
So mouth all mighty who are these people we would have attracted by keeping what you yourself are calling a stupid name.
You've utterly contradicted yourself. I'd say you had lost all credibility but you can't lose what you never had.'"
Love you too Vastman. Never change. |

Yep agreed, and whilst they are only a nickname in football is it really any better than The Rhinos or The Bulls to be referred to as The Toffees or The Owls or The Cottagers just to pick a few examples. |

It ultimately comes down to clubs creating that identity. Walk around Leeds and ask people what a "Loiner" is, and I suspect you'd get a lot of blank looks. The club needed something to distinguish itself from everything else called "Leeds", and "The Rhinos" is instantly recognisable. |

Of course they existed, I think you've missed the point, they were unofficially known as the Rooster thats the point, same as Manly were actually Manly Warringa (spelling) but were often refered to as the Sea Eagle, Seagulls or even Eagles.What the NSWRL did was to adopt them as a marketing tool but they already existed in a fashion - Rhino's and Wildcats didn't. |

What an arrogant individual you are, truly vile but typical of the poly technic generation. |

No reply because you were wrong and you knew it. No i'll never stop saying it how it is, your oversensitivity is not my problem. |

It was Dreadnowt's I believe not dreadnoughts as in the ships - a play on words I believe. There is a famous picture with the players holding a banner, it says Dreadnowts but your eyes trick you into seeing Dreadnoughts for some reason.
Thats not to say we haven't been called Dreadnoughts at some point as we probably have. |

Yeah I thought the Cas one had some history to it and tbf it matches the colours and Tigers are always cool. Rhino's does none of that for me. |

I've always thought it was Dreadnoughts, if you look at my avatar it's a photo that hangs in The Ale House in Wakefield with Dreadnowts on it though so you may be correct.
It states "Dreadnowts Comin." |

I've seen both but I think Dreadnowts came first but I'm not that old to be certain. Also it's Dreadnowts on your avatar  |
