Stupid question, Sutton are due to play King's Lynn on 14th November. Are they the only team in the country that has an apostrophe in their name?
Apologies because I may ask a thick question and the ah **** is it looks like Wealdstone v Sutton is live on BT on the 21st.
I don't have BT Sports.

There may be other apostrophised clubs, but Bishop's Cleeve, Bishop's Stortford and Heather St John's are the only ones I can think of.

I'm afraid I can't assist on your other query though. Wealdstone's website confirms their live stream service does not apply to games televised on BT Sport, unfortunately... www.wealdstone-fc.com/live-stream |

Oh OK. I saw that the kick off time was 17:20 so naturally assumed that it was live on BT.
Apostrophe wise, where is Sallycat when you need her!
(May not have needed a comma after the word wise there).

Blessed is the person who having nothing to say abstains from giving us wordy evidence of the fact.

The BT website does indeed confirm that the Wealdstone match is live on 1HD.
And, unlike VCLX1, I do have BT Sport!

Thanks Amber Choc. Gotta live feed? I'll give a running commentary on the forum! |

When VCLXI asked whether there were any other teams in the country that were apostrophised, I didn't realise the country in question was Scotland.  |

It's strange, I only really thought of this whilst scrolling down the league tables earlier. |

On the subject of punctuation, how many English football clubs can you think of that have hyphenated names? I can think of four off the top of my head...

I can't think of any! Does Curzon-Ashton count? Or even Ashby-de-la Zouch.
If we can get onto teams with names that have brackets I'm gonna go for Ashford Town (Middlesex).

Although there is a football team in Ashton-under-Lyne, there are no hyphens in Curzon Ashton FC. Ditto for Ashby-de-la-Zouch's Ashby Ivanhoe FC. I can assure you there are (at least) four hyphenated English football teams out there... |

How can you forget Corinthian-Casuals?
There's one with two place names with a hyphen instead of an and; I'll be back when I can remember the name.
And yes to the comma
