TroyDyer Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Thinking a Ram isn't a particularly popular animal. Especially among children. Think maybe we are missing a trick marketing wise. On the other hand, a penguin is a very popular creature. If we became the Derby Penguins, we could keep the team colours and stadium seat colour. I have written to John Vicars. Will let you know his thoughts, and probable time of implementation. Thoughts? Link to comment https://dcfcfans.uk/topic/14022-team-name/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester Ram Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 We could have Zebra's too and change our mascot to that one from Madagascar. The Derby Zebra's would be formidable. However, the Derby Penguins? That's just ridiculous. Link to comment https://dcfcfans.uk/topic/14022-team-name/#findComment-566115 Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the Derby Penguins? That's just ridiculous. I see your point. But again I don't see a zebra as a particularly popular animal among the 5-17 year olds market. Although a corner could be called a zebra crossing. That's a PR goldmine. Link to comment https://dcfcfans.uk/topic/14022-team-name/#findComment-566119 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will let you know his thoughts, and probable time of implementation. Thoughts? 1. Who says a Ram is not a popular animal? 2. How many children have you asked? 3. What proof do you have that a Penguin would be more popular than a Ram? Surely you should have written to a Vicar instead of John Vicars as a Vicar might be more understanding regarding your predicament.
