Mon, 03/03/2008 - 17:06I've heard that the curent team names we have now were established in a similar form early on - however, certain parts of the names evolved with time. A recent discovery of a stone tablet shows the teams involved in the first cup final were:
Wolverhampton Hunter-Gathers vs Aston Mud Hut
The league that year was won by a team from the capital city whose original name translates as 'Place Where We Keep Stone Axes and Other Weapons'
And in the north of the country the fans of the team 'Sheffield Day When We All Work Which Will Be Named After Chief Norse God' were already discussing whether the current manager should be sacked despite it being the inaugural season.
Finally, as a footnote to the sports pages the 'LDV Big Cart To Carry Many Possessions' trophy was won by 'Lincoln Place Where Many Lots of Mud Huts Are' as they defeated 'Huddersfield Place Where Many Mud Huts Are' on penalties.
Oh, I amuse myself even if no-one else gets it! 
PS: Apparently an early stone carving of one of the players bears an uncanny resemblance to a certain Mr Rooney!

Apparently, I was just
Thu, 03/06/2008 - 16:44Apparently, I was just amusing myself!!
But to (slightly) more serious matters. The weblinks go to articles which provide evidence of a large temporary settlement around stonehenge entirely in keeping with the need for the craftsmen and engineers working on building stonehenge to have somewhere to live. Naturally there would be feast days - as the articles say. The final 'reuters' weblink is a story about the 2012 games to be held in London - I fail to see the relevance.
The link to the Salisbury Journal (a local paper) just gives an idea by one man that there may have been a guard at Stonehenge who was only replaced after being beaten in a fight to the death - there is little or no evidence to support this and the article gives no link to a peer reviewed journal to substantiate it. Also, this bears no conenction to there being organised sport at stonehenge. Having read the comments at the bottom of the article I noted that one taked about winning gold, silver and bronze. Hmmm bronze? Wasn't this taking place in the stone age and not the bronze age?
PS: If this was story just an attempt to wind me up it worked pretty well! 
PPS: Football (soccer for our American friends) evolved in the middle ages and the game as we know it today was formalised with rules in Victorian England with the first ever team being Sheffield FC who were formed in 1857

RE: Highways Agency A303 / A344 / A360 Stonehenge Improvement Programme
Dear [email protected]
Now that A TEXAS TYCOON has funded All Highways Agency costs for Stonehenge Airman's Corner, Winterbourne Stoke, Longbarrow and Countess Roundabouts' improvements; All Highways Agency costs for Stonehenge Visitor Centre at Airman's Corner (and the Centre itself); and All Highways Agency costs for Stonehenge A303 / A344 / A360 dual carriageway long-bored tunnels, when is Highways Agency going to A TEXAS TYCOON's Avenue Banks' Heelstone Vault for withdrawal of deposited funds? The reason I ask is that nobody at The Royal Society, Council for British Archaeology or Wessex Archaeology knows when Highways Agency A303 / A344 / A360 Stonehenge Improvement Programme will begin. Thank you.

STONEHENGE: A Football Stadium
Submitted by GarryDenke on Mon, 03/03/2008 - 04:39.Royal Society Fellows have discovered that Stonehenge was used as a Football Stadium after its deep Ditch had yielded no Coal. Ancient energy mining prospector, LORD Fellow of Woodhenge, converted its white Ditch chalk pilings into Bleachers for enthusiastic area Sport fans.
Eleven (11) Gaps between six-foot tall Banks of the discovered Eleven (11) Bleachers made for quick and easy Latrine access to the Ditch, according to Royal Society Fellows, before the six-foot deep Toilet silted in.
Football Stadium Bleachers / Latrine
LORD Fellow of Woodhenge constructed a Ticket Line area with timber posts in the Ancient sunny northeast Avenue Entrance, with Players coming and going Freely through a southern Lower Entrance. Royal Society Fellows also found that Football became popular soon afterward.
Fifty-Six (56) Fence Posts separating the Eleven (11) Bleachers full of enthusiastic Sport fans were found in a Circle around the Stadium playing area. Horizontal fence Rails prevented Crowds from storming the Field.
Stadium Field Protection Posts / Latrine in Blue
Two (2) Goals at opposite ends Perpendicular to the Rising Sun served as Fair Lighting for both Team Sides and were constructed of Four (4) Station Stones, two (2) for each Goal. "Laws of the Game" developed with Number of white Ditch pilings made by LORD Fellow of Woodhenge.
Royal Society Fellows concluded Sport fans of Eleven (11) Banks and Sport fans of Eleven (11) Bleachers must have agreed the "Laws of the Game" were a lineup of Eleven (11) Players representing them to "Foot the Ball".
Stuffed Animal Skin Ball
Today, the most prestigious International Football competition is the FIFA (Fédération Internationale de Football Association) World Cup, founded 5,000 years ago at Stonehenge. It is the most widely viewed in the World, boasting an Audience twice that of the Summer Olympic Games.
Championship Awards numbering in the Hundreds stand as a Testimony to the many Teams who competed at STONEHENGE: A Football Stadium. Abandoned due to its Success, there were too many Trophies on the Field.
